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.

After two years in a home for boys, SNIT MANDOLIN, 15, goes to stay with MATILDA, his aunt, who lives an impoverished and isolated life in the hills. Snit tries to make a place for himself in the only home he's ever known but the meanness of poverty and the harshness of the land defeat him. The community that still shuns his family - and paid to have Snit taken away - has not changed. Snit falls in with another outsider, JOHNNY SWIFT,16. Johnny makes moonshine and sells it through a local bootlegger. The boys become fast friends until their adventure is cut short by ROY KANE, the district's private cop. Enigmatic, unpredictable, and with his own sense of justice, Kane is after the bootlegger and will use the boys to get to him. It was Kane who dragged Snit away from his home those years ago. As he plays cat-and-mouse with the boys, Kane begins to wonder about the place he warehoused Snit in, and what it might have done to Snit.
