Two Scenes from ‘Stolen’
— by ROB COX — The trailer for Hamm’s current film “Stolen” left me cold. Granted, it is only a two-minute sampling of the film, but, to me, this independent film looks cluttered and filmed on the cheap. In all fairness, most independent productions tend toward a cheaper look[...]
‘Where the Wild Things Are’ Features: Music People Making Movies
— by JASON EAKEN — If Spike Jonze was in a teenage rock band, I wouldn’t be surprised. No, I mean if he was in a teenage rock band NOW I wouldn’t be surprised. He’s got that lazy, loping posture, his voice sounds like he’s barely made it out of puberty, and his[...]

Six Clips from ‘The Runaways’
— by ALEXA MILAN — One of the movies that that everyone seems to be talking about is “The Runaways,” a biopic of the 1970s teen rock band that launched the career of Joan Jett. The film follows the rise of The Runaways as the girls tour throughout the United States and garner a huge [...]

Six Clips from ‘The Bounty Hunter’
— by ALLISON HIGGINBOTHAM — When I was younger, I thought bounty hunters hunted people and then killed them. Basically, I thought they were hit men. As I grew older (and watched some “Dog the Bounty Hunter”), I learned the error of my ways. However, when I saw these clips[...]
