Review of Stay (2005)

Review of Loggerheads (1978)

By Walter V. Addiego (363) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 20 Oct 2005

Review of The Californians (2005)

By Neva Chonin (27) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 20 Oct 2005

By John Mcmurtrie (16) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 13 Oct 2005

Using well-chosen clips from roughly 200 films, many of them obscure, Andersen makes a powerful and impassioned case for reassessing his beloved city…

Review of The War Within (2005)

By Walter V. Addiego (363) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 13 Oct 2005

The picture couldn't be more topical, but in the end it feels schematic, and you sense that the filmmakers are trying too hard to be even-handed…

Review of The Overture (2004)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 06 Oct 2005

A by-the-numbers, simple tale that pulls out all the cliched melodramatic stops when it should be exploring an obviously fascinating character…

Review of The Greatest Game Ever Played (2005)

By Ruthe Stein (335) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 29 Sep 2005

Review of MirrorMask (2005)

By Walter V. Addiego (363) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 29 Sep 2005
