This is life...
One of the greatest compliments you can give to any film done by Robert Altman is that they perfectly represent real life. Nothing about his films are glossed up as is the fashion of almost anything in Hollywood. Every frame and every character has this rich sense of ...

Jacob (1994)

Matthew Modine, Lara Flynn Boyle

Turner Home Ent, 1996

There should be (alot) more of this on television
This is one of a series of made for TV movies that were produced in the 1990s to recount various Biblical Old Testament tales. Don't let the `made for TV' aspect turn you off this, this movie (and series) is well done. This movie tells the Genesis story of the ...

Streamers

Matthew Modine, Michael Wright

Edde Entertainment, 1995

Excellent adaptation of a brilliant play
Ever since I read "Hurlyburly" about five years ago, I have been a fan of David Rabe. When I became aware that "Streamers," possibly his best play, was made into a film, I wasted no time in renting it. I found the it to be true to the original script, with minor ...

A fun and entertaining film.
If you are a World war 2 enthusiast, like I am, you have to see this film, it may not be the best film of the genre, but it is very entertaining and gives the viewer a glimpse of the war from the perspective of the ones who fought in it.
