During the presidential election of 1988, a teenager named Donnie Darko sleepwalks out of his house one night, and sees a giant, demonic-looking rabbit named Frank, who tells him the world will end in 28 days, 6 hours, 42 minutes, and 12 seconds. He returns home the next morning to find that a jet engine has crashed through his bedroom. As he tries to figure out why he survived and tries to deal with people in his town, like the school bully, his conservative health teacher, and a self-help guru, Frank continues to turn up in Donnie’s mind, causing him to commit acts of vandalism and worse.

If Stanley Kubrick and Ken Russell had decided one day to team up and co-direct a film together, the results probably would have looked a lot like “Perfume: The Story of a Murder,” the singularly odd screen adaptation of the best-selling Patrick Suskind novel. It fuses the magisterial visual style and sardonic humor of Kubrick’s “Barry Lyndon” with the screw-loose audaciousness of any number of Russell’s 1970′s epics and the result is a work that is decidedly uneven–how could it not be?–and which will probably be dismissed by many as little more than an expensive chunk of lurid trash. Make no mistake–it is lurid trash but it is lurid trash of such a high caliber that I found myself delighting in it throughout despite, or possibly because of, its joyful excesses.

Catch a Fire

It’s a good thing that the stridency of Tim Robbins’ political views is matched by his talent as an actor. Thanks to the wonderfully nuanced performances that both he and Derek Luke (“Antoine Fisher”) give, “Catch a Fire,” a look at the evils of Apartheid-era South Africa, manages to be more nail-biting and thoughtful than didactic.

The film recounts how a black refinery foreman named Patrick Chamusso (Luke) ran afoul of the law for bombing he didn’t commit.

Dark Ride (2006)

 

 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0433963/

Nearly a decade after two young girls are brutally murdered, the monstrous killer, Jonah, escapes from a mental institution and returns to his familiar killing ground, the theme park attraction “Dark Ride.” His unfortunate victims this time are a group of college kids on a road trip that inevitably leads them to the Dark Ride where their night of youthful fun becomes a nightmare. The killer, who is mimicking the sets within the attraction, makes sure this is a “ride” audiences will never forget.

Infamous

 

My heart goes out to Douglas McGrath. The writer, director and occasional actor was hard at work on “Infamous,” telling the story of how Truman Capote researched “In Cold Blood,” when he learned someone else was making a movie on the same subject. A movie called “Capote.” A movie that would go on to win one Oscar and be nominated for four others, including Best Picture.

Even if “Infamous” turned out to be an outstanding motion picture, it could not possibly compare with “Capote.” Coming out a year later and covering the same material, it would look like a copycat. Worse, the public wouldn’t be interested. One Truman Capote biopic is enough, thank you very much.
