Notebook Reviews: DEATH BECOMES HER - Movies In Focus
Robert Zemeckis – 1992 Director Robert Zemeckis delivers a delicious black comedy with Death Becomes Her. The lead trifecta – Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn and Bruce Willis have a great old time. Streep and Hawn chew the scenery, but Willis really impresses as the geeky, put-upon husband. Isabella Rossellini also puts in a gloriously camp turn. Winning production design, wonderful cinematography and a strong Alan Silvestri score only add to Death Becomes Her‘s delights. It’s a little over-the-top at times, but some funny moments and the aforementioned elements make Death Becomes Her well with watching.
Behind The Scenes: Anthony Hopkins, Jodie Foster & Jonathan Demme On The Set Of THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS - Movies In Focus
Jonathan Demme’s The Silence Of The Lambs is a piece of cinema that manages to work not only as a prestige picture, but also as a horror film. We’ll have no mention of ‘elevated horror’ when discussing about this film, thank you very much. Demme’s film is pure gothic terror – right down to the dungeon cell of Anthony Hopkins‘ Hannibal Lecter. The Silence Of The Lambs follows Jodie Foster’s FBI trainee, Clarice Starling as she hunts serial killer ‘Buffalo Bill’ (Ted Levine) with the help the incarcerated killer Hannibal Lecter. Jodie Foster delivers a powerful, Oscar-winning turn as Starling, going toe-to-toe with Hopkins’ delectable performances as ‘Hannibal The Cannibal’. Jonathan Demme’s taut direction and unsettling atmosphere – thanks to Howard Shore’s score and Tak Fujimoto’s cinematography – create a sense of unease up until the film’s well-honed finale. The 1991 adaptation of Thomas Harris’ novel swept the board at the Oscars on 1992 – winning Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Director and Adapted Screenplay (for Ted Tally). The Silence Of The Lambs also cleaned up at the box office – scoring $130 million at the U.S. box office and almost $273 million worldwide.

Director Joe Stephenson‘s Doctor Jekyll is a commendable updating of Robert Louis Stephenson’s classic tale with a modern slant. This Hammer Films production successfully marries gothic horror with modern sensibilities, creating a visually striking experience that pays homage to its roots while carving out its own identity. Eddie Izzard shines as Nina Jekyll, delivering a layered performance that captures the character’s internal conflict. Izzard’s ability to navigate the complexities of Jekyll’s psyche adds depth to the film, making it a compelling watch.

While the pacing can be a bit inconsistent, here are enough engaging sequences to keep viewers invested. The clever nods to the original story and the film’s creative choices, such as its striking visual style, make it a worthwhile watch for genre enthusiasts. Ultimately, Doctor Jekyll may not completely transcend its genre, but it offers an entertaining and visually captivating experience that honours its source material and [...]
Faith Of Angels Featured, Reviews Film Threat
Faith-based movies have been shedding their hackneyed and corny leanings over the last few years. The quality gulf between Cabrini over Risen is immediately evident just by looking at the cinematography and lighting. As such, there’s no longer a reason to write off these typically independently produced films instantly. So, where does Faith Of Angels,
