Interview: Director Bennett Miller is the Hound in ‘Foxcatcher’
Submitted by PatrickMcD on November 18, 2014 - 11:10amCHICAGO – There are many categories of film director types – facilitators, tacticians, framers, to name a few – but there are few real artists. Bennett Miller has guided three films in his career, “Capote,” “Moneyball” and his latest “Foxcatcher.” All three have a purposeful artistry, and explore the soul within the humanity it portrays.
Film Review: Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum Have Fun on ‘21 Jump Street’
Submitted by PatrickMcD on March 16, 2012 - 7:04amCHICAGO – There are various opinions about TV-to-movie remakes, mostly negative. That is why “21 Jump Street,” based on a 1980s TV show, manages some grudging respect.

Blu-ray Review: Excellent ‘Moneyball’ With Brad Pitt Rewards Repeat Viewing
Submitted by BrianTT on January 18, 2012 - 8:39pmCHICAGO – Bennett Miller’s “Moneyball” is one of those films that was circling around my top ten when it came time to write it in December. Honestly I had about fifteen films that could have fallen anywhere between 6-20 (my top five was pretty set as I saw those films).

Don’t miss it.
