Reeltime Report: Man of Steel
http://reeltimereport.blogspot.com/2013/06/man-of-steel.html
Monday, June 17, 2013. Man of Steel - *1/2. Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Michael Shannon, Laurence Fisburn, Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner, Diane Lane. Focus It’s a factor of human existence. Millions take prescription drugs on a daily basis to ensure we can focus enough just to make it through our lives. It’s a necessity. Based on ‘Man of Steel’ the ability to focus is looked upon as an advantage that our protagonist has because of his upbringing on this planet. It is never explained. An even further forgotte...

Reeltime Report: 2013 Oscar Diary
http://reeltimereport.blogspot.com/2013/02/2013-oscar-diary.html
Sunday, February 24, 2013. Here it is. My fourth annual ‘Oscar Diary.’ This is one of my most fun posts of the year. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Without further adieu…. 7:22 – Kristen Chenowith has the most annoying voice I have ever heard. Seriously, it’s piercing. 7:24 – Renee Zellwegger is being interviewed, I’m really glad she has gotten over her skeletor phase. It just wasn’t working for her. 7:30 – Here we go…I hope that Tommy Lee Jones is amused. I would actually p...

Reeltime Report: Zero Dark Thirty
http://reeltimereport.blogspot.com/2013/01/zero-dark-thirty.html
Thursday, January 17, 2013. Zero Dark Thirty - * 1/2. Jessica Chastain, Jennifer Ehle, Jason Clarke, Kyle Chandler, Joel Edgerton. By conventional math it took nearly 10 years to catch Osama Bin Laden. By the math of what it took in manpower and the toll on the individuals involved in “the greatest manhunt in history” it was much longer. The constant weight of something of this nature will age you much more than the traditional year would. Part of what makes the movie successful is would be Chastain̵...

MedFlix: Film and the Medical Humanities: Alive Inside
http://medflix.blogspot.com/2015/05/alive-inside.html
Friday, May 22, 2015. ALIVE INSIDE is an absolutely amazing, moving and memorable documentary. It features such key "players" as Bobby McFerrin, Bill Thomas and Oliver Sacks (as well as others). It is a joyous cinematic exploration of music’s capacity to reawaken our souls and uncover the deepest parts of our humanity. The camera reveals the uniquely human connection we find in music and how its healing power can triumph where prescription medication falls short. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

MedFlix: Film and the Medical Humanities: Love & Mercy
http://medflix.blogspot.com/2015/06/blog-post.html
Monday, June 29, 2015. Love and Mercy (2015). The Music and Mystery of Brian Wilson. Brian and Melinda Wilson with Biopic Cast. This movie “i s a loving tribute to the Beach Boys and the man responsible for their distinctive sound, but it goes to deeper and stranger places than most movies of its kind.”. There’s a theory of negative alchemy. That posits that adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) can turn gold into lead. In Brian Wilson’s case perhaps it was turning platinum into gold.
