Movie Review: Berkeley Breathed animates a Porcine Pet Bounty Hunter — “Hitpig!”
Any children’s cartoon built around an armed loner/bounty hunter named “Hitpig!” was always going to be a dubious undertaking. But it was created by longtime “Bloom County” cartoonist Berkely Breathed. So it’s worth pondering. His cracked, kid-friendly (allegedly) vision comes … Continue reading

Movie Preview: “Bogart: Life Comes in Flashes”
This doc, narrated by Bogie’s son, comes close on the heels of a recent Bogie/Bacall biography I read and reviewed and promises an equally “intimate” portrait — using home movies, old interviews, etc. Doesn’t appear all that deep and polished, … Continue reading

Movie Review: Ralph Fiennes tries to Herd Back-Stabbing Archbishops through a Papal “Conclave”
A pope dies and over 100 of his archbishops gather to politic, poor-mouth, backbite and backstab their way towards electing another in “Conclave,” a deliciously dark, well-acted and beautifully-filmed inside-Vatican-intrigues thriller. Director Edward Berger (“All Quiet on the Western Front”), … Continue reading
