The Video Station: (303) 440-4448

I loved this movie. Midnight in Paris was lauded by the critics as well, and is up, so far, for Golden Globe and Independent Spirit awards. The DVD release has been much anticipated. Woody Allen has written a wonderful screenplay that is both unique and also evocative of some of his older [...]

Tom Hanks has a peculiar outlook on life in Southern California, at least compared with his peers in show business:
He genuinely seems to like it.

Bellflower is not for everyone. If you don’t like violence, forget about Bellflower. If you need a linear narrative, forget about Bellflower.
If neither of these is a problem, why haven’t you seen Bellflower yet?

If you haven’t seen Beginners yet, you should check it out.  What a great little gem of a movie. This film is definitely my favorite of 2011. Many people know the storyline of a man coming out as gay at age 70+, after his wife of many years passes away. Hal, played [...]
