Film: Review: The Great Buck Howard
The Great Buck Howard contains the seeds of an unsentimental, darkly funny character study about an effete relic of a bygone show-biz era at war with a business and world that has passed him by. Unfortunately, it’s buried inside a sentimental, achingly conventional coming-of-age story about a bland twentysomething who drops out of law school with vague plans to become a writer, and stumbles into a job that changed his life. The weak coming-of-age half of the film centers on Colin Hanks,...

August: A 1.0 movie in a 2.0 world
Being in the wrong place at the wrong time is the basic premise for many tales of woe. Shakespeare’s tragedies are largely built around the idea that a particular character overheard a snippet of a conversation at an inopportune time or had the misfortune to be arriving at the tail end of an epic age, one that they’re unable to sustain on their own weakened shoulders. Likewise, it’s always disappointing - albeit sometimes hugely entertaining - to watch the ego-besotten fall, victims of the
