Melancholia:
A Movie Review by John David Ebert
With the exception of War Horse, most of the films I&#8217;ve written about on this site lately have been disappointments to one degree or another, but let me just say that this is most definitely not the case with Lars von Trier&#8217;s most recent film, which constitutes, as did [...]]]></description>

Steven Spielberg&#8217;s War Horse:
Reviewed by John David Ebert
Steven Spielberg&#8217;s new film War Horse, while not a great film in any classic sense of the word, is nonetheless his best film in a long time. It doesn&#8217;t break any new ground and admittedly, it has the feel of the maestro going back and mulling over old [...]]]></description>

Immortals, Mythology and Metaphysics
