I've been a fan of Tim Burton's for a long time. I still remember being amused by Beetlejuice, seeing something in it that I see in all of his films. Tim Burton, to me, is a successful filmmaker because he uses his imagination to show us things that don't exist. He, more than any other filmmaker, pu ...

As I have stated before, I am a fan of documentaries. One of the perks of living in this information age is the fact that we now get to see history as it unfolds.

When I was a kid, it was a great time to be a movie fan due to one reason- the proliferation of means to access films at home. This meant that you could now see movies you may have missed in the theatres on your television! I saw a lot of movies- except for the rated 'R' ones. Stir Crazy was one of ...

Over the past few years, I've been intrigued by the French New Wave movement. One director whose work I haven't seen yet is Jean-Luc Goddard. I'm a sucker for a good title, and this caught my eye. Some basic research told me that it's the story of a Parisian housewife who turns to prostitution to su ...

My goal in doing this '52 Movies in 52 Weeks' is to try and see some classics, both vintage and comtemporary, in order to expand my knowledge of film as well as to simply see some great movies. This film, sadly, isn't one of those.
