The Can from Carlos Lascano on Vimeo.

So I just saw another great Don Cheadle performance. The movie was everything I expected. The tension, the suspense, the explosions and all that. The interesting part though is examining a person playing both sides, we have seen this multiple times. But in this case, the both sides that Cheadle’s character straddles is that of violence vs peace. Hate vs submission. The inner turmoil of his character is quite vivid and very open. When the topic of inner struggle comes up the resulting conversation is quite revealing (do go see).

As a fan of geo-political thrillers, Traitor was very good. Tension at all the right moments and just the right amount. Could have had a slightly tighter script but the plot was great. I believe this movie was made at the PG13 level to encourage as many Americans to see it. Rightly so, it should be required viewing for every American teenager, scratch that….

every American.

By distributing content on a media that has a much shorter development cycle it will keep their properties in top-of-mind and help to minimize the advertising budget when a new movie is ready for release. Check the link below.

Just saw The Happening. Although the script could have been “tighter” I think Ebert hits the nail on the head, squarely.

Cannes Review: Tyson – Cinematical

I’m pretty sure this may never make it to State College, but this is one documentary I most definitely will see. His life to me is a study in human nature on so many levels.
