[15 May 2009] Adoration: In the Eye of the BeholderAtom Egoyan talks to PopMatters about his newest film, Adoration, an intelligent coming-of-age tale that won’t be making it to the local multiplex anytime soon, but makes for a refreshing, welcome addition to the impending sea of American-made summertime garbage.

Everything in its Right Place: The Best Female Acting Performances of 2009Mazur checks out the year's best female acting and offers up a mostly alternative opinion to the boring Oscar-begging consensus picks including some you might not have heard about, yet. [8 January 2010] (more Suffragette City) An Education: Carey Mulligan Comes of AgeDanish director Lone Scherfig spares audiences the trite clichés of a young woman's coming of age, directs a magnificent cast of actors, and defends her film against allegations of inappropriate sexuality. [13 November 2009] (more Suffragette City) Emmy Nominations / Emmy AbominationsAnd the nominees for Best 'White' Actress on Television are… the exact same group of women who are nominated every single year by the unimaginative voting bloc. [24 August 2009] (more Suffragette City) Ingmar Bergman: No Man is an IslandBergman’s need to honor, discover and examine his intrinsic connection to women is quite simple: all men are influenced by women. [18 June 2009] (more Suffragette City) Abnormally Attracted to Sin: Tori Amos Talks with PopMattersOn the eve of the release of her tenth album, Amos chatted about collaborating with rock Gods and Goddesses, how bootlegs could potentially cause divorce, and why a gal sometimes just needs a good wig to add an extra element of surprise to both her marriage and her live show.

[17 April 2009] (more Suffragette City) The Oscar Expert Eyes This Year’s PageantryMy qualifications for discussing actresses and the Oscars? I’m gay and have watched the awards for more than 25 years now. If that doesn’t make me an Oscar expert, clearly nothing does. [20 February 2009] (more Suffragette City) No Girl So Sweet and ‘Happy-Go-Lucky’At first fearing a British Amelie, Mike Leigh’s Happy-Go-Lucky surprisingly became Mazur’s favorite film of 2008. [26 January 2009] (more Suffragette City) The Annihilating Feminine: Kate Winslet Gets Nasty in The ReaderIn Winslet’s clever, low-key performance, all of the character’s ambiguousness remains intact, making Hanna her most complicated, mature creation to date. [8 December 2008] (more Suffragette City) I’ve Loved You So Long: Interviews with Kristin Scott Thomas and Philippe ClaudelKristin Scott Thomas delivers the performance of the year in Philippe Claudel’s I’ve Loved You So Long, and tells Mazur how she did it. [10 November 2008] (more Suffragette City) The Secret Life of BeesWhat could have been a brave film turned out lukewarm, lost in its own self-importance, stripped of its feminist overtones and watered down for mass consumption. [13 October 2008] (more Suffragette City) Katrin Cartlidge: The Working ActressWhether it was through silence, grotesquerie, fury or intelligence (or, at times, lack of intelligence), Cartlidge was not afraid to upturn the dark corners of the women she portrayed. [29 August 2008] (more Suffragette City) The Bombing of BonnevilleBonneville is firmly committed to the “Female Gaze” in an industry where everything is geared towards only what men want to see.

That Hamilton WomanThis cunning propaganda film, a favorite of Prime Minister Winston Churchill, was constructed and produced, reputedly, on a shoestring budget. [16 September 2009]
RepulsionThis is the culmination of two artists upping their personal antes to produce greatness, two burgeoning legends of cinema testing their seemingly-limitless powers. [14 August 2009]
Wise BloodThough a complex and fascinating misfire, this cements Huston as not only one of the greatest adapters of literature, but also one of the most artistically experimental. [20 July 2009]
My Dinner with AndreA grand, intimate philosophical dissection of love, art, creative freedom and self-importance. [10 July 2009]
Essential Art House, Vol. 3Clement’s near-perfect film and Wajda’s hugely influential title cannot salvage the validity of the collection as a whole. [9 July 2009]
Alexander Korda’s Private LivesKorda is especially fond of the private moments in which the perception of the rich, famous and powerful is glimpsed through the eyes of the common folks. [29 May 2009]
The Last MetroModern technical elements mixed with historical truths make for a singularly Truffautian experience, where tolerance is paramount. [10 April 2009]
IronweedBesting Robert De Niro, Gene Hackman, Paul Newman, Jason Robards and Sam Shepard, Jack Nicholson gives one of his most complicated, consuming performances. [26 March 2009]
ElegyCoixet’s examination of age and the natural process of dying are refracted through a spectrum of cultures, ages, experiences and fears that are atypical of contemporary American films.
Magnificent ObsessionSirk explores behavior through archetypes, shading personality with scalpel-sharp precision. [20 February 2009]
White DogThis odd hybrid’s legend has become more interesting than the actual film. [5 February 2009]
Derek Jarman CollectionLike a mad, gentle-genius love child of Kenneth Anger, Carl Theodor Dryer and Luchino Visconti, Jarman broke almost every rule in his blazing career. [12 December 2008]
Missing: Criterion EditionThe lack of Sissy Spacek's presence in modern film makes Missing a tad bittersweet. [3 November 2008]
The Furies: Criterion CollectionMann scatters fragments of Shakespeare’s King Lear into the mix along with the familial clinches of Eugene O’Neill’s dour compositions [24 July 2008]
The Lovers (Les Amantes): Criterion EditionFans of Malle will no doubt drool over the crisp new packaging and artwork and the physically-adventurous performance of Moreau [10 June 2008] Erykah Badu + The RootsIf any contemporary artist is pushing the boundaries of preconception, misconception, and trail-blazing, it is Badu. She defies age, race, and gender norms. Hell, she defies earthly norms. [9 June 2008]
Youth Without Youth"You learn more quickly, more profoundly in dreams" -- the audience becomes a part of the hallucinations. [5 June 2008]
A Passage To IndiaThis is a solid throwback to an era where the scope and poetry of the eloquent imagery were the only things that mattered. [24 April 2008]
The Ice StormThe general fuzzed-out sense of malaise that Lee is able to tap into while exploring the Nixon-era sexual revolution (and repression and adventure), creates a point of view that both ruthlessly observes and empathizes with these alien suburbanites. [4 April 2008]
AtonementThere are so many perspectives to be considered in this film, that it might be said director Joe Wright had one too many cooks in the English country estate’s proverbial kitchen. [3 April 2008]
Paranoid Park (TIFF 2007)Gus Van Sant is concerned with portraying the developing moral compass of a jaded youth with a heartfelt sincerity and a steady hand. [14 March 2008]
Things We Lost in the FireThe film’s treatment of how one navigates the grief process, and the hidden trauma that follows inexplicable loss, is sensitive and thought-provoking.
WalkerA surrealist satire of thematically complicated scenes that mix political intrigues, sexual humiliation, religion, and fanaticism. [21 February 2008]
This Sporting LifeReminiscent of Scorsese’s Raging Bull in its dissection of the primal need of man to hit and be hit, and its brutish character's struggle with misogyny. [1 February 2008]
New York, New YorkScorsese films Liza Minelli like a '40s musical screen goddess, and she repays him with one of her most relaxed, assured acting performances. [16 January 2008]
Under the VolcanoUnder the Volcano is Golden Age craftsmanship at its peak with a decidedly modern edge that shows, again, that the vintage director’s eye is one that often improves with age. [7 December 2007]
The SavagesJenkins and her gifted cast have put together an insular film that subtly examines and questions the state of elder care in the United States. [29 November 2007]
The Diving Bell and the ButterflyDiving Bell feels like another world and visually, it looks like no other film. [28 November 2007]
Margot at the WeddingThe brisk 92-minute film explores the intensity of the women’s relationship, and how they are inherently tied to one another, whether they like it or not. [27 November 2007]
The HoaxThe film does not shy away from the innate unlikability of its leading man and it also explores, cannily, the damage one person’s dishonesty can inflict upon everyone around them. [15 November 2007] Tori AmosIn part two of Matt Mazur's epic tour portrait, the author analyzes Tori Amos' most complex character: "Tori Amos". [12 November 2007]
ControlWhat could have easily ended up as a humorless exercise in hipster excess turns out warm and snappy. Tori AmosIn piece one of a two-part series, PopMatters' Matt Mazur recounts a recent run-in with Tori Amos, analyzing her adventurous stage show and her many, many new personalities. [9 November 2007]
House of GamesIn the section of town where rotten tenements boast rusty, decrepit fire escapes that rattle in the dank breeze she seems out of place, but somehow not out of her element. [31 August 2007]
Dynasty: The Complete Second SeasonSex, divorce, scheming, conniving, catfights, fistfights, falling off horses, 'super bitch' Joan Collins, sex . . . Oh, Dynasy is timelessly entertaining and compulsively watchable. [20 August 2007]
Sweet LandThis film has such an innate sweetness that it will sweep viewers along in the romance, the nostalgia, and the beautiful sense of what it is like to overcome adversity to truly create and become part of a supportive community. [8 August 2007]
Interpol: Our Love to AdmireThe perfect soundtrack for an eighth grade dance, but for actual adults who know better, it's best to avoid this mess. [10 July 2007]
The Natural (1984)What could have been a magnificent comment on this patriotic pastime unfortunately turns in to an emotionally manipulative barrage of iconic imagery. [18 May 2007]
Catch and Release (2006)That this film somehow managed to attract such an array of diverse talent, and was marketed as a feminine romantic comedy, will confound viewers to no end. [14 May 2007] BjörkSince the singer tours infrequently and only stops in a handful of big venues (the American leg of the Volta tour included only five cities), catching Björk requires a hefty amount of legwork. But, is it really worth it? [11 May 2007]
Little Children (2006)Director Todd Field's eye for the minutiae of the everyday is impeccable. [2 May 2007]
Tori Amos: American Doll PosseAmerican Doll Posse is a record that wants to know why we are at war, and what we are going to do to clean up our mess. [30 April 2007]
Copying Beethoven (2006)While Copying Beethoven is a technically well-made, good-looking film, there doesn't seem to be any true soul present. [20 April 2007]
The Nativity Story (2006)Unlike the story from which it derives, there is no "oomph". There is no sense of danger. There is no excitement. [9 April 2007]
Maude: The Complete First SeasonShe is compared in the show's theme song to Joan of Arc, Isadora Duncan, Lady Godiva, and Betsy Ross. This is how we know Maude is going to be a revolutionary. [28 March 2007]
The Pursuit of Happyness (2006)The Pursuit of Happyness is the male version of a "chick flick": aimed at wringing tears from even the most macho dude in the house. [26 March 2007]
The Holiday (2006)Even though the nostalgic aspects are mildly graceful, the contemporary characters' every move is still riddled with cliché and schmaltz. [19 March 2007]
The Films of Kenneth Anger, Vol. 1 (1947)Anger can be seen not only as the godfather of queer cinema, but also of indie cinema: his budgets were virtually non-existent, and the production values might have been low; but the finished products were always regarded as works of art. [5 March 2007]
A Man for All Seasons: Special Edition (1966)A Man for All Seasons is an overblown, stuffy history lesson without much to offer in the way of cinematic innovation. It's beautifully safe and painfully accurate. [19 February 2007] The RaptureThe Rapture are one of those bands that can be either energetic and tight or just plain flat and hokey. Just depends on who shows up...
The Dick Cavett Show - Hollywood GreatsThis is not only an entertaining, funny, and smart guide to the glory days of Hollywood; it is an essential and useful tool for film historians. [16 February 2007]
Trust the Man (2005)Trust the Man is definitely enjoyable: as one of the guiltiest of pleasures that you only watch at home during the cold, dark winter, with the curtains drawn, alone and in shame with a whole bag of potato chips. [8 February 2007]
The Devil Wears Prada (2006)According to this film women in power are cruel, lonely, and constantly paranoid; not to mention supremely non-sexual. [6 February 2007]
House of Sand (Casa de Areia) (2005)The House of Sand is yet another filmic example of why Brazil is setting the standard when it comes to exporting interesting, superior filmmaking. [22 January 2007]
Mrs. Palfrey at the Claremont (2006)Perhaps with some more complete supporting characters in the mix, the central story, here, might have been more palatable, but standing alone, the premise unfortunately gets boring faster than one can say "tea and crumpets". [3 January 2007]
Wah-Wah (2005)The genuinely cinematic moments in Wah-Wah are few and far between, and are generally courtesy of the skillful performances. [19 December 2006] Inside The Actors Studio - IconsTuning in to see stars at their most bat-shit loony is one of the most pure forms of contemporary American entertainment, so there is a grain of merit to be found in each episode. [1 December 2006]
Reds (1981)Warren Beatty's personal best film stands among the most spectacular films of the '80s and has retained its dignity with age. [16 November 2006] Xiu XiuAs New England's iconic foliage reaches the peak of its bold color change, avant-garde drama queens Xiu Xiu one-up Mother Nature with a little change of their own. [27 October 2006]
Art School Confidential (2006)While director Terry Zwigoff seemed to have held the patent on this sort of offbeat tone in his past work, his kooky rudeness is his undoing, here [10 October 2006]
The Girls (1968)This is the sort of investigational piece that no filmmaker would dare to tackle today for fear of alienating the popular ticket-buying audience: young men and families. [9 October 2006]
Serving in Silence: Colonel Margarethe Cammermeyer (2006)A well-meaning and well-done story of one woman's crusade against an unjust practice. [18 September 2006]
Dont Come Knocking (2006)A vivid, genuine exploration of a hell-raiser entering his twilight years apologetically and with an open heart. [7 August 2006]
The Knife: Silent ShoutAs a place of medieval, dark mystery, Sweden now has now found a trusty, oddly appropriate soundtrack in Silent Shout, a psychopathic amalgam of all things Scandinavian, tossed into one big kettle boiled down liquid form, and then knocked back like a shot of ice cold Hallands Flader. [27 July 2006] Joinot to mention almost every OutKast record. So why has no one heard of her? [24 July 2006]
A Prairie Home Companion (2006)A Prairie Home Companion combines typical Altman strategies, like overlapping dialogue and converging multiple storylines, as well as his fanatical appreciation for the process of creating art. [9 June 2006]
PJ Harvey: PJ Harvey on Tour: Please Leave Quietly [DVD]This tour documentary is able to do what most artists can only dream about: it re-animates PJ Harvey's back catalogue, re-invents her sound palette, and flaunts (in the most positive way) her skill and versatility not only as a singer, musician, and visual artist, but also as a businesswoman. [30 May 2006]
The Proposition (2005)Nick Cave's The Proposition blends equal parts Walkabout and Sergio Leone's grim atmospherics to illustrate the brutality of imperialism. [26 May 2006] Radiohead!! [22 May 2006]
Robert Altman Collection: Donald Sutherland, Elliot Gould, Robert Duvall, Carol Burnett - PopMattersThis uneven collection is a definite example of the adage 'when he's good, he's very good, but when he's bad, he's very bad'. [25 April 2006]
Drawing Restraint 9 (2005)Sometimes, the film seems a lengthy Bjork music video -- confusing, beautiful, and somewhat ridiculous. [31 March 2006]
The Proposition (2005)Nick Cave's The Proposition blends equal parts Walkabout and Sergio Leone's grim atmospherics to illustrate the brutality of imperialism.
