2012 was an excellent year for cinema. However, three films about aging that I liked were not even nominated, such as Dustin Hoffman’s “Quartet,” Jake Schreier’s “Robot & Frank” or John Madden’s “Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.” Instead, Michael Haneke’s accomplished and artistic yet bleak French-language film “Amour,” about an aging couple in Paris, received four nominations.

I saw only 21 films in competition or premiering at the festival (and three others),... Read more
Almost a year ago (April 5, 2012) I reviewed Nanni Moretti’s dramedy “We have a Pope”. Click here for the full review. Here is the sidebar I wrote to accompany the review: Wandering popes, real and fictional For “We Have a Pope,” Italian director Nanni Moretti seems to draw on previous stories about wandering popes and those who resigned, real and fictional. Ignazio Silone’s 1968 The Story of a Humble Christian offers a fictional imagining of the true-life election and resignation... Read more
