dored by millions all over the world, Rita Hayworth was an incredibly beautiful and gifted actress and dancer. One of Hollywood's most famous film stars, she became known as the "Love Goddess" after her memorable role in Gilda (1946), the movie that forever immortalized her on the silver screen. This first-rate femme fatale was brash and openly sexual on camera, but charming and sincere - shy even - off the set. By continually reinventing herself and transforming her screen image, Rita remained in the spotlight with a career that spanned over four decades. Using personal home movies and never-before-seen footage, Rita thoroughly chronicles Hayworth's public triumphs and private struggles. And behind-the-scenes glimpses into her personal life reveal her tumultuous marriages to high-profile men Orson Welles and Prince Aly Aga Khan, among others. Narrated by Kim Basinger, this touching and captivating documentary includes interviews with Nicole Kidman, Hayworth's daughter Princess Yasmin Aga Khan, close friend Ann Miller; co-stars Tab Hunter, Anthony Franciosa, Juanita Moore, Eli Wallach and Marc Platt; directors Vincent Sherman, George Sidney and Delbert Mann; and more. Rare outtakes, color camera tests and behind-the-scenes footage spanning Rita's entire career including her earliest appearance dancing on film; Rita's voice narrating excerpts of the program her own story in her own words. Never-before-seen home movies from her family's private collection. Over 300 photographs - many rare or never-before-seen.

Tropic Thunder Movie Review
I thoroughly enjoyed the first half of the movie, but about halfway through my interested started to drop. There were still a couple good moments in the second half, but not as many as I expected.

Pineapple Express Movie Review
I think ‘stoner’ comedies are funny. I’ve watched the Cheech and Chong movies numerous times (although I probably shouldn’t have seen them at the age I did), and I love Harold and Kumar…but would I love Dale and Saul, the stoner buddies of Pineapple Express? The answer is a resounding YES!

National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets
It would be pretty easy to be scathing about this movie if it weren't for the fact that I don't think it sets its ambitions that high in the first place. If you've watched the first installment of National Treasure you'll know that everyone involved is looking to make a film that tries nothing more than to be entertaining for a couple of hours.

We Own the Night Movie Review
We Own the Night is one of those solid police movies that tries to rely on straight forward story telling rather leaning on a multitude of action scenes.

The Savages Movie Review
I like dark comedies. I love laughing at things that I probably shouldn’t be laughing at, but do anyway.

This movie is more family drama, but it does have some dark comedy thrown in at just the right moments to help lighten the drama.
