Robert De Niro, Jodie Foster, Albert Brooks

September 4, 2009The impact this film has had on cinema has been vast. A film true to its time, a social commentary on the public's lack of faith in politicians and the possible extent their paranoia could lead us.

June 13, 2009No matter what wars are going on, what the neighbours are screaming about next store, how many kids Sally Struthers pleads on behalf of, at the end of the day the media (movies, TV, books, etc.) more often than not present us with a candy-coated view of the world where in the end...( read more)

April 29, 2009Today I got my Bickle on. I don't get my Bickle on every day. In fact, it had been a few years since I last got my Bickle on, but today I was on vacation, with nothing better to do.
