Hello Film Fans and Fanatics!
Welcome to Film Fan Fridays for Friday November 30, 2007! We have a very quiet week for releases - only 2 in sight! In limited release this week is I'm Not There the avant garde Bob Dylan inspiration/recreation/impersonation film. In wide releases is Awake which every time I look into what it's about I walk a grey line between feeling like I've learned too much to being confused. It's fair to say it's a thriller.
If those are not to you likely feel free to check out some of the recently released films. I've heard The Mist is fun scary movie, there have been across-the-board glowing reviews and impressions of Enchanted and it looks like 3D is back to attack with Beowulf.
Have a great week!

Film Fan Fridays for Friday November 23, 2007!
Hello Film Fans and Fanatics!
Welcome to Film Fan Fridays for Friday November 23, 2007! Short week of releases this week as many opened on Wednesday just prior to American Thanksgiving (happy turkey day to those south of the boarder! Don't forget to make some yummy soup with the leftover turkey!). It's also a week of really do-er's as all 4 Friday releases are writer/director all-in-one. Ok, on to what *is* being released!
In limited release this week we have the, yes this is the consensus on the description, zen documentary on cooking How to Cook Your Life as well as the new Noah Baumbach film Margot at the Wedding which has recieved a fair amount of buzz here and there and if I was just told the premise of the film I doubt I would be interested. However, every single time I see the preview I'm intrigued and want to know more. The actors all look very 'normal' and seem to have very 'normal' lives and it's drama all the way. I think it's really going to be one to watch.
Wide releases this week include the Stephen King adaptation The Mist, and for those already ready for Christmas This Christmas.

Film Fan Fridays for Friday November 16, 2007!
Hello Film Fans and Fanatics!
Welcome to Film Fan Fridays for Friday November 16, 2007! With holiday season nearing (although still a month away, so there is lots of shopping time!), we are seeing family and fantasy films such as Enchanted, Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium and Beowulf. Speaking of Beowulf I found the previews a little confusing on the animated vs live action factor. However it is in the list for possible nominations for the Oscar's for animated film so I guess that answers that!
In limited release this week we have the highly acclaimed yet disturbing fictionalized realism with Redacted as well as Before the Devil Knows Your Dead, Terror's Advocate, and the Canadian film Citizen Duane.
Wide releases this week include book-to-film Love in the Time of Cholera, the Canadian film Breakfast with Scot, Beowulf and family friendly Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium. Also, next-mid-week releases of Hitman, August Rush and Enchanted. The August Rush preview completely took my heart out so it goes on my list.

Film Fan Fridays for Friday November 9, 2007!
Hello Film Fans and Fanatics!
Welcome to Film Fan Fridays for Friday November 9, 2007! We are in the gentle balance of fall to awards, er... holiday season which can be seen by the varied releases this week.
We are filled to the brim with limited releases this week. A selection of the realms of the real with documentaries Jimmy Carter Man From Plains and Darfur Now, docudrama Music Within and based on real life events This is England. Javier Bardem stars in No Country for Old Men, as one of biggest buzz performances this year. Rounded out the limited releases is Bollywood film Saawariya and a a re-release of the classic scifi film Blade Runner - The Final Cut.
Wide releases this week include some oddly time placed films for November such as the holiday film Fred Claus and the scare-over past October with P2. Out of the wide releases I would be more inclined to check out Robert Redford's Lions For Lambs.
Festival spotlight: be sure to check out Movie Moxie as I'll be covering the Toronto Reel Asian International Film Festival, Nov 14-18/07.

Film Fan Fridays for Friday November 2, 2007!
Hello Film Fans and Fanatics!
Welcome to Film Fan Fridays for Friday November 2, 2007! We have a fantastic selection this week of films from award winners to big names to home grown talent.
Our limited releases this week include 3 Canadian films, which is so exciting to see! They are: Surviving My Mother, Hot Docs award winning documentary The Bodybuilder and I, and the highly acclaimed Bruce McDonald film The Tracey Fragments. Rounding out the limited releases is the award winners galore with Romania's 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days and Israel's The Bubble.
Wide releases this week include Martian Child and Lars and the Real Girl in which one of the major characters is a lifesize doll, not a girl. Lars and the Real Girl has received a lot of interested, and themes of social disconnect and loneliness are no stranger to films in recent years, but I have to admit it pains me to see a major female character in a film is literally as a object. Also hitting the theatres this week is American Gangster which is a total talent fest starring both Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe directed by Ridley Scott, now that is a promising line up.
Have a great week!
