Madcap black comedy
26 March 2003
Very offbeat black comedy like a low budget version of The Player with the great John Savage starring as a former big time director who literally has his house burnt down to finance a movie. The beginning of the film is a bit slow but then it turns into a manic rush of madcap highjinx watching Savage with his B Producer 'uh nut ball friend (James Wilder) trying to get their movie made. Great cast with even a cameo by Mick Fleetwood.

Allie & Me (1997)
8/10
Charming comedy
25 January 2003
Very charming small comedy. Joanne Baron does a great job as Allie. Dyan Cannon and Harry Hamlin are particularly funny too. Director Michael Rymer does a great job guiding this breezy comedy through its paces. His talent is seen here where in my opinion it was horrible lacking on Queen of the Damned.

Very moving film
6 January 2003
Very well done film about the battle between Finland and Russia in the early stages of World War 2. Well shot, well acted and exceptionally moving. I found this film on DVD at Vidiots in Los Angeles. Never had heard of it before and found it to be a big treat. The label lists Vanguard Cinema has the distributor. I highly recommend it.
