The Tuesday Top Five: Anthropomorphic Animals in the Cinema Zoo
Chaos Indeed One of the questionable delights of Lars von Trier’s ‘Antichrist’, which we still haven’t seen at The Film Talk due to those oh-so-frustrating regional distribution patterns, is the appearance of a demonic fox who enlightens the audience with the motto: ‘Chaos Reigns’. And so it does, in Trier’s universe, this time round (you [...]

A Brief Observation on 'Observe and Report'
This film is either a serious satire on the encroachment of violence into everyday American life, the absurd over-reactions of the authorities to any infraction of their vision of the American Dream, the push-pull anaesthetising and goading of a generation through the over-diagnosis of mental health problems and the transformation of community retail into malls-as-mildly-sanitised-police-states, [...]
'In the Loop': The Best Political Satire since 'Dr Strangelove'?
I may just have seen the film of the year. A contemporary satire that deserves comparison with Jonathan Swift and Mark Twain, which starts hilarious, gets funnier, and more real, and even more uncomfortable until the laughs are intellectual but don’t become audible, because the truth of what is happening on screen can only evoke [...]
