Thinking Outside the Multiplex in Indiana (February 10, 2012)
by HELEN GEIB
In Indianapolis, Pina opens at the AMC Castleton, the Oscar-nominated shorts program at the KAC, and for anime fans, FMA: The Sacred Star of Milos at the G14. Fort Wayne gets a competing program of comedy short films at the Carmike 20 and there are still lots of opportunities to see The Artist around the state. And much, much more- it’s a good week when there’s too much to summarize in this intro. What are you seeing? Read more

Would you believe crocus are blooming all over the neighborhood in the first week of February? (That’s a month too early, for those living at different latitudes.) Whether it’s a cold or unseasonable allergies, I’ve been in no shape for going to the movies. Only because it was a once-in-a-lifetime movie experience- no exaggeration- did I push myself out the door Sunday to see David Copperfield at the IU Cinema. Read more

by NIR SHALEV
There’s not much to say here that hasn’t already been said in my original review of Roland Emmerich’s best film, Anonymous.

Emmerich utilizes his expert eye for grand special effects to beautifully render whole cities, from more than five centuries ago, on the screen instead of having them destroyed for the fun of it.

Movie Review – The Far Country (1954)
by NIR SHALEV
Anthony Mann is my favorite Western director. All of his Westerns, or at least most of them depict anti-heroes and bad-guys-turned-good, but The Far Country is quite remarkably different. Read more

A bunch of movies whose titles start with the letter “A” and a couple of other films hold over in Indianapolis and in some cases elsewhere. What looks good to you? Read more

Capsule Movie Review – Man on a Ledge (2012)
by HELEN GEIB
Man on a Ledge is a tough nut to review because the less you know going in, the more fun it is to watch it unfold slash hurtle along to its destination. It starts with a man climbing out the window of an old New York City skyscraper hotel. To give you a sense of the kind of movie it is, I’ll go one step further and reveal that he’s not suicidal.
