Our Facebook Quiz Just Turned 200!

Posted: 06 Jan 2014 12:00 AM PST

Way back when Twitch had its own separate forum, the most-watched topic used to be the screenshot quiz. The rules were simple: someone would post a screenshot, and the person who guessed the movie won the right to post the NEXT screenshot. And this went on for seven years, until well over a thousand films had been guessed. Then times changed: the forum went dead as people moved discussions over to social media. But last year we relaunched a new forum on our Facebook page. And what was the first topic we put on it? The screenshot quiz of course!!! We decided to reboot it fresh, with slightly revised rules, and with a winners list added for bragging purposes. No prizes, this is just for...

Ben Umstead's 2013 In Cinema: Reflections And Favorites

Posted: 05 Jan 2014 03:00 PM PST

2013 was a banner year for cinema. Though really, if one looks hard enough, every year has the sweet, sweet possibility of being a banner year. What I've learned this year is that it is okay to call myself a film critic (though I prefer film journalist). And yet what I do may not always be what we have come to know as criticism. Shall we just say I write about motion pictures then? The greatest thing I've learned arose from both that metaphysical and philosophical quandary, which is this: the more cinema I take in the less I feel I know about the medium, and yet I become clearer in why I need cinema as a way to filter and reflect the rest of...

The Many Faces Of George Clooney

Posted: 05 Jan 2014 10:00 AM PST

Believe it or not, when From Dusk Till Dawn hit cinemas I did not know who George Clooney was. Worse: friends of mine refused to go see the film because they knew him from television and he was a "pretty boy wuss". Needless to say, coming out of the cinema I didn't understand at all what they were talking about. And in the years that followed, I've only started to like him more and more. While his pretty glamor look for the press can make me barf, at the same time I cannot quite shake the feeling he's spoofing himself when he flashes that standard smile. As a director and producer he has often scored major points with me for supporting quite some edgy material....

Posted: 05 Jan 2014 08:00 AM PST

In just a few weeks, the largest of the Dutch film fests will start again: the International Film Festival Rotterdam, or IFFR for short. As always there will be films from all over the place, with a strong slant towards Asian cinema. And this year, the IFFR highlights that slant by officially starting the festival on the 22nd of January with a film from India: Anup Singh's Qissa, starring the great Irrfan Khan (him of Slumdog Millionaire fame) and Tillotama Shome. Here is a synopsis: Set in post-colonial India, Qissa tells the story of Umber Singh, a Sikh, who is forced to flee his village due to ethnic cleansing at the time of partition in 1947. Umber decides to fight fate and builds a new...

Review: Chito Roño's BOY GOLDEN is a Bizarre Actioner That Bursts With Charm and Identity

Posted: 05 Jan 2014 07:00 AM PST

Chito Roño's Boy Golden, the third of actor-turned-politician Jeorge "E.R. Ejercito" Estregan's yearly vanity projects, is a surprisingly offbeat actioner. A fictionalized take on the life of 1960's gang leader Arturo Porcuna, the film transforms Manila into a stage where upscale criminals dance to Elvis Presley's hits while gunning down rivals. The city, reeking of the country's infatuation with anything and everything American, has streets lined with the popping neon signs of various diners, hotels, and burlesque clubs that hide the stench of many opium dens, gambling halls, and bordellos that serve as cash cows for the metropolis' many gangs. Estregan's Arturo Porcuna is sleek and sophisticated. Although driven to bloodlust by the need to avenge the rape and murder of his sister, he does...
