Review of Finding Fela (2014)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 12 Feb 2018

Ultimately, Finding Fela loses its narrative backbone when it can no longer rely on gifted footage and must focus on the actual man…

Review of Eat That Question: Frank Zappa in His Own Words (2016)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 12 Feb 2018

Even if I remain unconvinced of the greatness of most of his music, Eat That Question makes the best possible case for his merits in other areas…

Review of Short Term 12 (2013)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 12 Feb 2018

That sputtering noise you hear in the nobly intentioned, intermittently moving Short Term 12 is the sound of feminism backfiring as it meets…

Review of The Florida Project (2017)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Gay City News (145) on 12 Feb 2018

The Florida Project is neo-realism for people who can appreciate both a Robert Rauschenberg exhibit and a Nicki Minaj video…

Review of The Queen of Versailles (2012)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

[Director Lauren] Greenfield's gaze somehow synthesizes ridicule and compassion in a way that elevates her film above superficially similar…

Review of Wonderstruck (2017)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

A large part of Wonderstruck's problem is that it feels like two medium-length films jammed together…

Review of The Post (2017)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

The Post has a great deal to say about the worth of journalism, but it indulges in a lot of empty cheerleading that casts aside our deepest…

Review of The Housemaid (2010)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

Unfortunately, [director Im Sang-soo] completely botches the job, missing the subversive potential in the outrageously melodramatic material,…

Review of Insidious (2011)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

Insidious has no higher ambition than to scare the audience, and it succeeds much of the time…

Review of The Deep Blue Sea (1994)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

The Deep Blue Sea may be devoid of the stunning sound/image combinations that powered early Davies films such as Distant Voices and The Long…

Review of Mean Creek (2004)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

For all its contrivances and hesitations, Mean Creek showcases a real, promising talent-even if he might be better off writing about characters…

Review of The Debt (2010)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

While the script sometimes bites it off more than [director John] Madden can handle in terms of juggling flashbacks, its central section works…

Review of Fat Girl (2001)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

Far from being a mere provocateur (although she certainly is one), Breillat shines a light on the way everyday sexism degrades all concerned…

Review of I Love You Phillip Morris (2010)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

Hilariously forthright about Steven's sexuality in ways queer problem dramas rarely begin to suggest, I Love You Phillip Morris lights a path…

Review of I’m Going Home (2001)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

[Michel] Piccoli's performance is the film's beating heart…

Review of Headhunters (2011)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

The movie's nothing more than a brisk diversion, but it's nothing less, either…

Review of Novitiate (2017)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

Leo is one of America's great character actors, but her mother superior is written as a fairly one-dimensional villain…

Review of Arbitrage (2012)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

…

Review of Beginners (2011)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

Beginners wants to say something profound about the difficulties of committing to love, but Hal and Oliver are the only characters who come…

Review of Crazy Horse (2011)

By Steve Erickson (207) for Nashville Scene (147) on 09 Feb 2018

Crazy Horse shows how much work goes into winning the battles of the erotic army, even if the real warfare is going on behind the curtains…
