THIS WEEK: Manhunter (1986), Hannibal (2001), Red Dragon (2002), Hannibal Rising (2007)After covering Jonathan Demme's Silence of The Lambs last week we decided to keep the ball rolling and cover the rest of the film adaptations of Thomas Harris' Hannibal Lecter novels. Not that any of us need an excuse to watch Manhunter for the 74726587432 time. Maybe we could have done without Bret Ratner, Hannibal's silly Italian hat, and the Samurai training montage though. Oh well. Donate to Palestinian Medical Aid Support Optimism Vaccine on Patreon

The Mikes are heading down to Nassau, Bahamas to hang out with Woody Harrelson, steal a diamond, watch some sunsets and also watch Pierce Brosnan and Selma Hayek make out...a lot. That's right, Mike Butler and Mike Field are talking about After the Sunset! This big nothing burger (Field's words) was directed by Bret Ratner and basically plays out like an add for Atlantis Resort. While Butler enjoys the "lighter fare" that the film serves up, Field is having none of it. Some people just can't be satisfied, am I right? Like Brosnan's thief in this heist film!So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you and settle down for Forgotten Cinema.

Separating Art from the Artist A Roundtable Discussion with Constance Grady, Staff Writer at Vox, Reverend Brian Joyce, and Eric Miller. A generation of us grew up on Michael Jackson music and The Cosby Show. The DNA of our sense of humor includes some Cosby and some Louis CK. How many Kevin Spacey or Harvey Weinstein or Bret Ratner films have we enjoyed? Or Woody Allen or Roman Polanski? Italian painter Caravaggio murdered someone. Phil Spector did the same. John Wayne said some straight up horrifically racist stuff in a 1971 Playboy interview recently making it's rounds - and it didn't affect his culture status - or did it. Poet and author Rudyard Kipling wrote the Jungle Book, but fundraised for Reginald Dyer BECAUSE he committed a massacre of over 1000 Indian people - depicted in the movie Gandhi. How do we watch The Naked Gun without knowing what we know about OJ. As the media and social media microscope grows and intensifies, we're learning more and more about the bad deeds or darkest days or outright criminal villainy of some of these creative folks that have occupied and even shaped our culture and our lives, in our formative years, and sometimes for decades or lifetimes. Art is an escape in some ways and yet it's increasingly tarnished or ruined - sexual harassment, homophobia, sexism, domestic abuse, pedophilia, racism, even rape and murder.  Are they inseparable. Does the creation forever belong to the creator, for better or worse, or to the consumer of that art. It feels like a new question, it isn't. But it is one we all must keep asking ourselves it seems, because the bar's been raised and continues to rise. That's a good thing - but can we separate the art from the artist?

Bajo el lema de “Seek the truth” (busca la verdad) es que finalmente llega a nuestras pantallas la película de The Da Vinci Code (EL código Da Vinci) después de la euforia ocasionada por el best seller de quien actualmente es el escritor mejor pagado (aunque no necesariamente signifique que sea el mejor escritor), mi tocayo Dan Brown.La historia trata acerca de cómo el buen profesor Langdon (interpretado por las extensiones de cabello de Tom Hanks, digo, por Tom Hanks) y Sophie Neveu (Audrey Tautou, a quien muchos recordarán por Amelie) van descifrando poco a poco los misterios y claves dejadas por un anticuario asesinado dentro del Louvre quien da la misteriosa casualidad de ser el abuelo de Sophie. Es aquí donde los conocimientos acerca de simbolismos del profesor Langdon y la preparación seudo policiaca de Amelia, que diga, de Sophie van entretejiendo la historia acerca del descubrimiento del engaño mas elaborado (y más remunerable) de la historia.Para los que leyeron el libro, lo más probable es que les guste la película. Ron Howard se apego de manera fiel al mismo y en cierta manera esa es su más grande acierto… o su peor defecto. A final de cuentas no hay sorpresas y la trama es la misma. Desafortunadamente lo que puede leerse de manera fluida y atraparte en el texto, no necesariamente es igual de cautivador en la pantalla grande. En teoría las actuaciones de Hanks y de Autrey deberían agregarElementos para que la película se moviera de manera fluida, desafortunadamente los dos se ven extremadamente acartonados. De hecho, el gato que tiene Hanks en la cabeza le roba cámara la mayor parte de las ocasiones. De igual manera, la sagacidad y encanto que Autrey ha demostrado en trabajos anteriores no esta presente en la película. Sin embargo y gracias a Dios tenemos a Sir Ian Mckellen el cual nuevamente demuestra que es un señorón actor y los momentos donde aparece son definitivamente los mejores del film. Ojo con el señor ya que también aparecerá de manera importante en X-Men 3.La verdad la película esta buena para pasar el rato, pero nada mas. No esperen descubrir el secreto de la vida ahí. Igual y desperto muy grandes expectativas, considerando la fuente de la cual parte y el hecho que en el trailer le ponían el recurso musical numero 7 si quieres que apantalle a la audiencia. Digo, si se estableció con Réquiem for a Dream (Réquiem por un sueño) y funcionó con Lord of the Rings (El Retorno del Rey), ¿por qué no en ésta? Desafortunadamente las formulas no deben de repetirse donde no van, y eso también se aplica para los números o las letras voladoras que al buen Ron Howard le encanta usar desde A Beautiful Mind (Una mente brillante).Otra producción que se estreno, aunque con menos bombo y platillo, fue el documental: Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Prices (Wal-Mart: El alto costo de los precios bajos). Este documental de Robert Greenwald se anuncia como que le hará a la cadena de super mercados lo mismo que Super-Size Me (con el “ingenioso” título de Super Engordame, como se le conoció en México) le hizo a Mc Donalds.En este documental se nos presenta el horrible efecto que tienen los Wal-Marts en la economía de las ciudades en que se instalan . La manera en la cual empiezan a disminuir los ingresos económicos de las personas que tienen negocios cerca del lugar y el daño que realiza inclusive a nivel ecológico puede ser grave. Por otro lado, los sensacionales sueldos y los beneficios que ofrece a sus empleados son tan impresionantes, que un porcentaje mayoritario de los mismos en Estados unidos, tiene que acudir a solicitar apoyo del gobierno para poder librarla.Desde que Michael Moore puso de moda la protesta a través de documentales como Roger & Me, Bowling for Columbine (Masacre en Columbine) o el fallido Fahrenheit 9/11, se creía que la gente iba a acudir más a ver este genero tan olvidado del cine. Afortunadamente, ya hay mas distribución de documentales en las salas normales de cine, desafortunadamente, a la mayoría de la gente le da flojera ver algo que tiene mas información que trama. La semana pasada fui a ver el documental de Metal y la sala estaba completamente sola. Esta semana fui a ver el documental de Wal-Mart y nuevamente la sala sola. ¡Prácticamente le podía decir al proyeccionista que le pausara a la película si quería ir al baño o por mas palomitas! La ventaja de tener una sala es que no tuve que aguantar a la chica fresona contestando el celular en voz alta a media función o al tipo que le encanta decir lo que esta pasando va a pasar en la película… Odio cuando pasa eso.En conclusión, este documental esta bastante recomendable. Si les gusta recibir algo de información que para variar si esta investigada (no que en el Código…), vayan a verla.Cabe mencionar que este viernes nos llegará a cartelera la última entrega de la trilogía de X-Men. Esta cinta, dirigida por Bret Ratner, a quien muchos ubicaran por ser el hombre detrás del éxito de la serie Prison Break, nos muestra la última batalla por la salvación de la raza mutante. Nuevamente Magneto, encarnado por Sir Ian McKellen tendrá que pelear tal vez en contra de su misma raza, encabezados por los X-Men de Hugh Jackman y la ex gatubela Halle Berry.Datos Triviales¿Sabían que originalmente el creador de 24 (24, 2+4=6), Joel Surnow, quería adaptar el Código Da Vinco para la televisión? Para bien o para mal, a Dan Brown no le pareció. Seis meses después, Sony Pictures le pagó 6 millones de dolares por los derechos y se empezó a hacer la película.Autoridades de la Abadía de Westminster no dejaron que se filmaran escenas de el Código en este lugar, alegando que el libro era teológicamente incorrecto (y en cierta medida, tienen razón). En su lugar, en vez de filmar ahí, se izo en la Catedral de Lincoln, acá en Inglaterra.Los hijos… y las hijas del Sr. Sam Walton (fundador de la cadena Wal-Mart) han donado la sensacional cantidad del 1% de su fortuna a caridad. Bill Gates, por otro lado, ha donado el 56% de su lana.
