Screenwriter Erin Cressida Wilson had a big hit with Secretary in 2002. Well, maybe not a hit in the commercial sense, but definitely in the cultural sense; it's a film that people still talk about, and which will likely continue to have a real presence for years to come. But Wilson hasn't had a great many produced credits since then. Maybe her profile will rise once again thanks to Oprah and Harpo...

Photo Slideshow Now Available on DVD & Blu-ray Despite the fact that nothing about the fascinating, flawed yet maligned Where the Truth Lies was conventional, Oscar nominated director Atom Egoyan shares that the confines of the traditional mystery paradigm didn't allow him the chance to let his storytelling unfold organically.

Back to the LONDON FILM FESTIVAL with Dave , with an actressing overload today. Coming within the next few days, sanity pending, will be thoughts on Precious (yes, again), A Prophet and, finally, The White Ribbon .

If the Toronto International Film Festival is nervous about its prospects as a film market while studios and indie producers struggle, it's not showing it.

I merely took a weekend breather, but I'm back headlong into the LONDON FILM FESTIVAL for its remaining two weeks.

MOTION PICTURES PLAY a significant role in determining how people around the world perceive their own and other societies. Governments have therefore been sensitive to cinematic portrayals of their countries and are quick to complain when they feel that a movie treats their citizens poorly. An example of this occurred in 2002, when Canadian-Armenian writer-director Atom Egoyan released Ararat, a
