Articles tagged "skeet ulrich" TV ReviewJerichoby Cynthia Fuchs[12.Feb.08] :. While it's not exactly subtle to posit a post-apocalyptic U.S. as the equivalent of Iraq, it does lay out a new grid for Jericho.  TV DVD ReviewJericho: The First Seasonby Jeremy Estes[1.Nov.07] :. When Jericho works it is a frightening portrait of what could happen if, “the terrorists’ greatest dream” comes true and they get their hands on nuclear weapons.  TV ReviewJerichoby Cynthia Fuchs[20.Sep.06] :. The citizens of Jericho want Jake to save them. Even in their cynicism, they seek a very old-fashioned solution.  TV ReviewInto the Westby Lesley Smith[7.Jul.05] :. Into the West is honest about the role of women, both Caucasian and Native American.  TV ReviewMiraclesby Cynthia Fuchs[28.Jan.03] :. Skeet Ulrich brings to Miracles a combination of weary intensity and ethereal pretty-boy beauty.  Film ReviewRide with the Devil (1999)by Todd R. RamlowRide with the Devil is essentially two films in one. The first is a story of loyalty - to family, community, and nation - tested in the social and political upheavals of civil war. The second is a story of male bonding and love in a homosocial order, the negotiation of male-male desire, and male domestication, all triangulated and enabled through the body of a woman. Ride with the Devil (1999)by Cynthia FuchsRide With the Devil dares to bring yet another version. Directed by Ang Lee and written by Lee and his usual collaborator James Schamus (who adapted Daniel Woodrell's novel Woe to Live On, a novel inspired, says the author, by today's warfare in the Balkans), the film is rather surprising, and not only because it stars Jewel as a Southern widow. Telling stories that don't usually get told, Ride With the Devil focuses on some of the War's more disgraceful and outrageous aspects, both personal and public. |
