The Perfect Host – Trailer

April 13, 2011

Ever wonder what happened to David Hyde Pierce after “Frasier” ran past its shelf date? Well, neither have I, actually.

The Secret in Their Eyes – Trailer

February 2, 2011

I saw this film recently, and was properly impressed. I know, I was only a year late, considering it won the honors of Best Foreign Language Film at the Academy Awards in 2010.

Hereafter – Trailer

September 13, 2010

Clint Eastwood has called his new film, “Hereafter,” his chick flick, and while the film is something of a departure for him, focusing as it does on spiritual matters, one could also make the case that over the past 15 or 20 years Eastwood has been continually testing the water with different types of material, [...]
