Review of The Interpreter (2005)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 06 Dec 2005

The director, Sydney Pollack, who appears briefly in the film, has done his experienced best with this Scotch-taped script…

Review of Tony Takitani (2004)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 01 Dec 2005

Not many of us, I think, would want to see many films made this way, possibly not one more, but this one is an intriguing glance at the director-as-god,…

Review of Bee Season (2005)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 22 Nov 2005

All these mystical elements are so sententiously handled and bump into one another so clumsily that they make the film seem nutty…

Review of The Merchant of Venice (2004)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 25 Sep 2005

What Radford has retained of the original, he treats warmly and intelligently, and with a few welcome surprises in the acting…

Review of The Bridges of Madison County (1995)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 24 Sep 2005

LaGravenese... has understood that the worst of Bridges is not in its dialogue but in the silent musings that occupy its characters' minds…

Review of Love! Valour! Compassion! (1997)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 21 Sep 2005

That this is the first film for director Joe Mantello, who was nominated for a Tony for directing the stage version, may be compounding the…

Review of The Flower of Evil (2003)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 01 Sep 2005

The latest Chabrol is a bit bland, but by now a new film of his is almost like meeting a previously unencountered family member…

Review of Air Force One (1997)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 26 Aug 2005

The film's biggest flaw -- aside from the lapses of credibility, which are almost obligatory in escapist summer movies -- is that it flies…

Review of Cinema Paradiso (1988)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 16 Aug 2005

Originally a two-part film running about three hours, this treacle has been reduced by almost a third, though it still seems to run on forever…

Review of Kinsey (2004)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 28 Jul 2005

Throughout the film a question tugs at the viewer. Kinsey's work was inarguably important, but his life is not especially interesting…

Review of Broken Flowers (2005)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 09 Jul 2005

The five episodes in Broken Flowers are good enough to make us expect that the picture has a theme, but it hasn't…

Review of Fellini: I'm a Born Liar (2003)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 07 Jul 2005

It is Fellini's face that is peculiarly welcome, the face that -- in a probably fantasizing but pertinent way -- endorses his films…

Review of My Best Friend's Wedding (1997)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 06 Jul 2005

The story isn’t bright enough or grand enough to contain all of Roberts’s star power…

Review of Lone Star (1996)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 20 Jun 2005

Sayles speaks the language of cinematic formula so automatically -- his reunited lovers slow dance to a jukebox in a dark, deserted cafe and…

Review of Match Point (2005)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 17 Jun 2005

One aspect certainly is remarkable. The dialogue is, at least to an American ear, authentic…

Review of Great Expectations (1998)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 30 May 2005

No doubt about it: Unlike David Lean's much-loved classic, Cuaron's film is loosely based on Dickens. And that's just fine…

Review of Gertrud (1964)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for New York Times (5,786) on 08 May 2005

In his best films there has always been an underlying human concern that sustained us through any longueurs of execution…

Review of The English Patient (1996)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 15 Apr 2005

It's reasonably well told and well mounted but little more…

Review of Lost in Translation (2003)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 06 Apr 2005

Coppola handles her film with very pleasant economy, with a kind of warm precision…

Review of Chicago (2002)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 20 Feb 2005

The net effect of the incessant dazzle is depressing…
