Herbert Lom is probably best known in the U.S. for his role as the Chief Inspector in Blake Edwards’ Pink Panther movies. He’s funny in those. We review Hell is Sold Out on Film Review Central: https://t.co/3kKTZafpyF

Christopher Guest's A Mighty Wind is successful not only because it’s subtle, funny and sharp; it’s also authentic. We review it on Film Review Central: https://t.co/ljZili9tqR

Little of Jules Verne’s droll and satirical observations survive in Michael Todd's Around the World in 80 Days. Nearly every scene in the book is shortened, trivialized, and made less effective. We review it on Film Review Central:

Making lemonade out of the stage-bound scenario and tiny budget, Budd Boetticher shoots the film mostly at night, with noir-ish shadows and sharply designed compositions. We review Behind Locked Doors on Film Review Central: https://t.co/A1a7Mat93G

A Serious Man is the Coen brothers' most autobiographical work; they grew up in the clean-cut suburbs of Minneapolis in 1967, and the film meticulously recreates that world in impressive detail. We review it on Film Review Central: https://t.co/VBfpoHQ8AJ

Remember when Bambi's mother died, making children cry, and the Witch in Snow White peddled poison apples, making children scared? Pixar’s The Good Dinosaur outdid those. We review it on Film Review Central: https://t.co/t3dvMADe8i
