    screenwritersmonthly.com | Screenwriter’s Monthly Give ‘em some credit! Johnny Depp's performance as Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl is amazing. As film critic after film critic stumbled over Screenwriter’s Monthly can be found themselves to call his performance everything from "original" to at the following fine locations: "eccentric," they forgot one thing: the screenwriters, Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio, who did one heck of a job creating Sparrow on paper first. Sure, some critics mentioned the writers when they declared the film "cliché" and attacked it. Since the previous Walt Disney Los Angeles film based on one of its theme park attractions was the unbear- able The Country Bears, Pirates of the Caribbean is surprisingly Above The Fold 370 N.

  • 1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in the Guardian, June 2007
    1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in The Guardian, June 2007 http://film.guardian.co.uk/1000films/0,,2108487,00.html Ace in the Hole (Billy Wilder, 1951) Prescient satire on news manipulation, with Kirk Douglas as a washed-up hack making the most of a story that falls into his lap. One of Wilder's nastiest, most cynical efforts, who can say he wasn't actually soft-pedalling? He certainly thought it was the best film he'd ever made. Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (Tom Shadyac, 1994) A goofy detective turns town upside-down in search of a missing dolphin - any old plot would have done for oven-ready megastar Jim Carrey. A ski-jump hairdo, a zillion impersonations, making his bum "talk" - Ace Ventura showcases Jim Carrey's near-rapturous gifts for physical comedy long before he became encumbered by notions of serious acting. An Actor's Revenge (Kon Ichikawa, 1963) Prolific Japanese director Ichikawa scored a bulls-eye with this beautifully stylized potboiler that took its cues from traditional Kabuki theatre. It's all ballasted by a terrific double performance from Kazuo Hasegawa both as the female-impersonator who has sworn vengeance for the death of his parents, and the raucous thief who helps him. The Addiction (Abel Ferrara, 1995) Ferrara's comic-horror vision of modern urban vampires is an underrated masterpiece, full- throatedly bizarre and offensive. The vampire takes blood from the innocent mortal and creates another vampire, condemned to an eternity of addiction and despair. Ferrara's mob movie The Funeral, released at the same time, had a similar vision of violence and humiliation.

Fortunately, for the campus, the hurricane moved to the center of the state and spared us its harshest winds. Then three years later came the Covid-19 pandemic.

  • Sermons at Union Congregational Church Preached by Gary Gumuchian, Pastoral Intern
    Sermons at Union Congregational Church Preached by Gary Gumuchian, Pastoral Intern February 17, 2019 Sixth Sunday after Epiphany Luke 6:17-26 Unjust Desserts Spring Training opened this week. I love baseball. No sport has such a rich history. It has its traditions, which border on the sacred. People can get downright metaphysical about baseball. I remember being ten, patrolling right field, as all heavy-set kids do, and noticing the field I was playing on had no outfield fence. Given, the perpendicular nature and the infinite length of foul lines with no outfield fence, the field technically extended into forever. Those foul lines extend through streets, yards, oceans, all across the world. Baseball can have you considering more than just the game. I think this is one of the reasons for the abundance of literature, art, and film regarding baseball. One of my favorite movies is 1988's Bull Durham starring Kevin Kostner, Susan Sarandon, and Tim Robbins. Maybe you have seen it. It's a howl combining some of the best elements of sports, buddy flicks, and romantic comedies, Bull Durham tells the fictional story of the Single A Carolina League Durham Bulls and the ups and downs of being a minor league baseball player. The film is about relationships. It is about joys and sorrows. There is an air of spirituality to it. The film uses Baseball as a method to explore how to fully live one's life. Veteran catcher Crash Davis, played by Kevin Kostner, has found himself back in the low minor leagues to help develop a young pitching phenom Ebby Calvin “Nuke” LaLoush, played by Tim Robbins.

  • Ron Shelton Paper
    Durham Bulls and Tin Cups - How Ron Shelton Reinvented the Sports Movie PANNING WITH ALMOST SADISTIC stealth, away from the centre of the ring, the heart and heat of the action, the camera alights on the perimeter, on the top rope. On a patch of fresh blood. Coal-black blood. Slowly, hypnotically, the treacly trickle becomes an ooze, splashing onto the next rung in a series of chilling plops. The director defies you to look away. You don’t. You won’t. You can’t. Martin Scorsese knew what he was doing when he shot Raging Bull in sternest, grimmest monochrome. What could be more black-and-white than boxing? Somebody wins, somebody loses, everybody hurts. Body and mind in perpetual search of fusion. And no editor or producer to correct flaws or eliminate longeurs. The ultimate competitive art. The last word in nudity as entertainment. Unless, of course, the fix is in. Much the same can be said of those pastimes more worthy of being described as a “game” (not even Rocky Marciano ever claimed to have [itals] played [end itals] boxing?). Hence Hollywood’s passion for sport in general. Hence the 700-odd titles listed in the index to Ronald Bergan’s Sport In The Movies - and that was published nearly three decades ago. From King Vidor to Chaplin to Scorsese, directors have sought to capture sport on screen, but comparatively few celluloid incarnations have strayed beyond the clichéd and the formulaic. For every John Goodman (Babe Ruth) or James Earl Jones (Jack Johnson) there have been dozens of mono-dimensional Gary Coopers (Lou Gehrig) and Glenn Fords (Ben Hogan); for every Raging Bull a rash of Rockys.
