The magazine's reviews of the two Fox Searchlight films just came out and they loved them both! Three and a half stars out of four for each, in fact. Read some snippets from the poz reviews below and follow the provided links to read their full thoughts yourself.

As a reminder Tamara Jenkins' THE SAVAGES opens in select theatres November 28th and Jason Retiman's JUNO does the same on December 5th.

 

 

Rolling Stone on THE SAVAGES:

"A volatile cocktail of mirth and melancholy"

 

"Jenkins and her three astonishing actors create comic devastation out of situations as serious as a mental meltdown and picking out just the right nursing home."

"Linney is an amazement, showing vulnerability and strength at war for a character's soul."

Read the entire review -- and Peter Travers' equally glowing reviews of Philip Seymour Hoffman's and Philip Boscos's performances in the film -- here. Visit the Web page for THE SAVAGES here.

 

 

Rolling Stone on JUNO:

"It's... a hip and hilarious antidote to HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL goo. The devil in Cody's script lets in wit, anger, distress and the pain of romantic longing. JUNO is more than a few smiles — it makes you laugh deeply. It's one from the bruised heart."

"There's a special kick that comes in finding a new star. So step up, Ellen Page, and take your bows. You won't find a sass queen around who can touch Page as Juno MacGuff, a pregnant sixteen-year-old with a smart mouth that won't quit."

I'm actually really

I'm actually really absolutely gutted that Fox Searchlight will film the Twilight Watch. In English. It just doesn't make any sense. There is just something that American directors, actors etc etc will not be able to achieve. It will turn into a horrible Blockbuster. And they have to be speaking Russian of course.

There is nothing wrong with filming in another language then English. Other languages have Dubs and sexy lingerie bedroom furnituresubtitles for English films. We should be fine with that. The English Dub for The Night Watch was pretty good, I didn't mind it

The rain that falls into the

The rain that falls into the lives of these two drama geeks is Lenny Savage (Philip Bosco), the father who neglected them as kids and now needs all their attention, what with dementia knocking. Jenkins and her three astonishing actors create comic devastation out of situations as serious as a mental meltdown and picking out just the right nursing home. There is nothing cozy about The Savages. Bosco, a theater legend, seizes his juiciest film role and makes every shocking moment count. And Linney is an amazement, showing vulnerability and strength at war for a character's soul. As for Hoffman, is this his year, or what? He's electric in Before the Devil Knows You're Dead and the upcoming Charlie Wilson's War, but what he does here — hanging from a neck brace or crying over his eggs — leaves you in awe. With the help of acting giants, Jenkins turns The Savages into a twisted, bittersweet pleasure.

Given the subject matter —

Given the subject matter — caring for an aging parent — The Savages is damn funny, as long as you don't mind laughs that stick in your throat. The gifted Tamara Jenkins, making her first film since her potent 1998 debut with Slums of Beverly Hills, brews a volatile cocktail of mirth and melancholy. Jon Savage (Philip Seymour Hoffman) and his sister Wendy (Laura Linney) have first names out of Peter Pan, but their life is no fairy tale. Wendy is a struggling playwright doing odd jobs in Manhattan and diddling a married man (Peter Friedman), though she has more affection for his dog. Jon is a college professor in Buffalo, writing books on Brecht and alienating his Polish girlfriend (Cara Seymour) by refusing to extend her visa by marrying her.

I read Night Watch before

I read Night Watch before the release of the original film in the series. It may have helped me to understand the film, because I was very clear about the sequence of events, and even recognized the point at which sexy lingerie it cut off from the book. (The book is quite long, but there are clear breaks between storylines.)

The books are very entertaining, with humanly written characters in unique positions. I don't read Russian, but can tell you that for reading solely the English version, the translations are well done. I don't feel thatwholesale lingerie I missed out by not being able to read the original text. Humor and concepts still made sense, and the characters' personalities were preserved.
