Top Comedy Movies
In addition to making us laugh, comedy movies make us think about our lives and the world around us in new ways. My choices of films here are an eclectic mix ranging over a variety of comedy sub-genres, including parody, screwball, and dark comedy. This is my personal, idiosyncratic list of favorites, and it doesn't necessarily reflect the popular wisdom on comedy movies. For the sake of focus, I've limited my choices to English-language talkies

Romantic Movies
There's no guarantee of finding romance in real life, but if you know where to look, you can usually find romantic movies at least, and I've listed below some of my favorites that are available on video and DVD.

Drama Movies
Conflict is essential to drama. The movies that move me deeply are those where the conflict grows out of what's at stake for the characters. This is true even in the case of "2001," where the most interesting character is a computer, and what's at risk is the next step in human evolution. This is my personal, idiosyncratic list of favorites, and it doesn't necessarily reflect the popular wisdom on drama movies. For the sake of focus, I've limited my choices to English-language talkies.

Action Movies
Movies can show fierce battles, high-speed chases, and horrific explosions that most of us will never experience in real life, and I think such sequences properly used make films far more emotionally engaging. Here I've selected movies containing action that is well-integrated into the story.

Top Movies Released on DVD in
The year 2008 has seen the release of some outstanding movies on DVD, and I've made a list of those I found to be the best. My criteria included the artistic merit of the films, the enhancement value of the bonus materials, and the picture and sound quality. I applied these criteria in a completely subjective fashion, and the result is a personal, idiosyncratic list of my own favorites that doesn't necessarily reflect the popular wisdom.

"THX 1138" DVD
Before George Lucas became famous, he co-wrote and directed an excellent movie titled THX 1138starring Robert Duvall. Now a restored director’s cut of that film is being released as a superb two-disc DVD set loaded with worthwhile bonus materials. A single-disc version is also available, but missing most of the extras. With either DVD version you'll get a first-rate movie and an excellent commentary track, but I recommend the two-disc version because of its terrific bonus materials.

Ingmar Bergman Movies
I have long been intrigued by dreams, myth, and psychology, and perhaps that explains my attraction to the movies of Swedish filmmaker Ingmar Bergman. Below I've given brief descriptions of 10 of my favorites, ordering them according to the date of their initial theatrical release. I've also tried to sketch an outline of the most productive part of Bergman's filmmaking career. As one who loves humanistic movies, I have found the body of work summarized here to be immensely rewarding

Foreign Movies
I think foreign-language films can show us things about the world we will never see if we watch only movies where the dialogue is in English. Here's a list of ten of my favorite foreign-language films by ten different filmmakers. Three of the movies are in French, two are in Japanese, two in Italian, and one each in Bengali, Russian, and Swedish. In my opinion, the films listed below are among the greatest in all of cinema.

Review: "The Notebook" DVD
I would describe the movie The Notebook as an unabashedly romantic tale about love, memories, and death. It's a weepy, but I believe it's one that men can connect with. It's based on a novel by a man, the screenplay was written by a man, and the director is a man. The story chronicles one otherwise-quite-ordinary man's uncompromising love.

Bedazzled the Two Movies - About Bedazzled Movies - 2000 Bedazzled Movie and 1967 Bedazzled
A short, fun feature about the Bedazzled movies. Do you know that the move Bedazzled starring Elizabeth Hurley and the Brendan Fraser was based on a 1967 film? Yet in spite of being older, the 1967 film Bedazzled seems fresher and just more devilishly funny.

Hitchcock - Masterpiece DVDs
Alfred Hitchcock is one of my favorite directors, and whenever I'm in the mood for a stylish mix of suspense, terror, and perhaps a delicious dash of romance, his films have never failed to entertain and fascinate me. So I wasn't surprised that I was delighted by "Alfred Hitchcock — The Masterpiece Collection," a 15-disc box set that contains 14 movies directed by the legendary Master of Suspense. Read a review of "Alfred Hitchcock — The Masterpiece Collection" on DVD.

"In America" DVD Review
“In America” (2002) is an English-language drama that received three Academy Award nominations: Best Actress (Samantha Morton), Best Supporting Actor (Djimon Hounsou), and Best Original Screenplay. The film was on scores of 2003 Top Ten lists, and after I watched it on DVD recently, I could certainly see why. I found In America to be one of the most emotionally engaging movies I have ever seen. Read a full-length review the movie of In America on DVD.

Sunrise Movie DVD Review
F.W. Murnau's classic Hollywood silent movie Sunrise is on many lists of 100 greatest films, but it has been rather difficult to see for many years. At last Fox has released this great movie on a DVD that comes with some nice extras, which I've listed below. However, to the best of my knowledge, as of the time of this writing -- March, 2003, it's unlikely you'll be able to buy or rent the Sunrise DVD at a regular store or order it from a major online retailer. In the last paragraph of this article, I'll describe a way of getting the DVD through January 31, 2004. But first I'll give a brief discussion of the film. Read a review of Sunrise on DVD, a masterwork of silent film directed by F.W. Murnau.

8 Mile | the Movie - 8 Mile DVD Review

Movies With Wedding Scenes
Traditionally, June is the month for getting married, and this started me thinking about movies where weddings and/or wedding receptions play an important part in the story. So for everyone who is getting married or has family or friends getting married or who is going to a wedding or has to work at a wedding, I've compiled a list of movies that deal with the occasion. In no particular order, here's my eclectic and idiosyncratic list:

DVD Pick: "Hero"
Hero is a beautiful, dramatically compelling film with a grand theme. At the 2003 Academy Awards, the movie was one of the nominees for Best Foreign Language Film. However, on DVD you can listen to the dialogue in the original Mandarin (English subtitles are provided) or dubbed into English. Read a review of Hero on DVD.

Brotherhood of the Wolf | DVD Movie Review - DVD Pick of the Week
What I like best about Brotherhood of the Wolves is how it refuses to be confined to a single genre, and you never know quite what to expect next. There are lots of action sequences, but these are mixed nicely with sequences that have the mood of a good werewolf movie and sequences that are like an R-rated Merchant-Ivory film. Read my review of Brotherhood of the Wolves.

A Beautiful Mind | DVD Movie Review - DVD Pick of the Week
I thought that A Beautiful Mind played much better on DVD than it did when I saw the movie during its theatrical release. I found A Beautiful Mind to be more of a fable than a character study, although Russell Crowe's performance adds dimension to a character who is scripted as more mythic than real. Read my review of A Beautiful Mind on DVD.

French New Wave Films
The French New Wave was a movement led by a group of young filmmakers that included Jean-Luc Godard, François Truffaut, Alain Resnais, Claude Chabrol, Eric Rohmer and Jacques Rivette. The idea of a New Wave film was that it should seem personal and freewheeling, as opposed to the corporate and highly polished movies being produced by the studios. Below I have listed in alphabetical order five of the best of the French New Wave films.
