The Wind That Shakes The Barley   9/01/06
by Tacitus
[b]The Wind That Shakes The Barley[/b] (2006, Ken Loach) [b]4.5/5[/b] Ken does it again... I thought it would be hard for the director to top his Spanish Civil War tale, [i]Land And Freedom[/i], for sheer guts, pathos and emotion but he has.

Grizzly Man   3/07/06
by Tacitus
Herzog peppers this footage with interviews with Treadwell's friends and Alaskan acquaintences, including the pilot who found his, and Amie Huguenard's, remains in October 2003. Grizzly Man's opening monologue with Timothy describing the effect of a bear attack was eerily prophetic...

Tarnation   11/16/05
by Tacitus
The film is told through the eyes of wannabee actor Jonathan Caouette and charts his life, to the age of 31, and relationships with his mentally ill mother and adoptive parents (his grandparents).

Revengers Tragedy   8/25/05
by Tacitus
The film itself is lightening paced, messy and self-indulgent. But also great fun.

Straight to Hell   5/15/05
by Tacitus
Messy, and often takes the idea of homage a stage too far into 'rip-off' territory...

Dead Man's Shoes   4/08/05
by Tacitus
For me, this is the best British film since Trainspotting...

Lost in La Mancha   3/23/05
by Tacitus
How Storms, Aircraft and Jean Rochefort's Prostate Sabotage A Movie.....

Naked   3/13/05
by Tacitus
Naked is one of those films that leaves a mark, a scar even, on everyone who watches it.
