  1. Film review: Biopic has more than one hitch

    Alfred Hitchcock's reputation as a filmmaker was already on the rise when he died 32 years ago. Since then it has consistently (and rightly) grown ever greater. At the same time, his reputation as a person has taken a lot of blows ... whether rightly or not is a determination way above my pay grade. It's significant that Donald Spoto's biography — the first Hitchcock bio to be published after his death — was subtitled “The Dark Side of Genius.”

  2. Selection Sunday is exciting but will never top the NFL Draft

    "Selection Sunday."
    "Selection Sunday." It's got a nice ring, but don't get too cocky, basketball fans. Granted, you have one of the two best non-sporting sporting events (in which no scoring happens), but you will never touch the first day of the NFL Draft. But you...

  5. 'Hitchcock'

    Anthony Hopkins and Helen Mirren are typically credible as legendary "master of suspense" Alfred Hitchcock and his wife, Alma, in director Sacha Gervasi's docudrama, but the bigger interest is the movie's detailing of the complications - financial and...

  8. 'Hitchcock's' triple play

    The original title of director Sacha Gervasi's "Hitchcock" was "Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho," the name of Stephen Rebello's book on which the film is based. Anthony Hopkins, who plays the famed filmmaker in the movie, thought the longer name was a terrible idea, sounding more like a symposium than a film &mdash; "I said to Sacha, 'That's a doomed title," Hopkins said &mdash; and eventually Gervasi shared his actor's opinion.

  9. Reel Critics: 'Softly' could be harder

    Writer-director Andrew Dominik created a hard-boiled gangster movie in "Killing Them Softly." It owes much to the work of the Coen Brothers and Quentin Tarantino. It's filled with constant tension offset by the sort of cerebral dialogue and strange humor seen in "Pulp Fiction" and "Fargo."

  11. Advice for approaching DVD kiosk

    As a relatively broke college student, Chicago-based writer Rob Christopher didn't have the cash to rent movies from a video store. Instead, he sought out his local library and discovered not only a repository of films vast enough to satisfy his tastes but the ability to try them out for free. "Free" beats Netflix and even Redbox by a mile, and with the demise of video stores, large and small, library film archives are often the only brick-and-mortar places with collections on hand.

  12. 'Hitchcock' a lifeless portrait, critics say

    For all his fame and cinematic brilliance, Alfred Hitchcock remained an enigmatic figure &mdash; prolific on the screen, private off it. The new biopic "Hitchcock," starring Anthony Hopkins as the eponymous director and Helen Mirren as wife Alma Reville, attempts to shed some light on the master of suspense by dramatizing the making of his fabled 1960 chiller "Psycho."
