The Dying Gaul
DVD Released: 03/21/2006
Rated:
Genre: Drama
Starring: Peter Sarsgaard, Campbell Scott, Patricia Clarkson, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Robin Bartlett, Linda Emond, Ryan Miller, Jason-Shane Scott
Extras:
Robert Sandrich, a fledgling screenwriter (Peter Sarsgaard) who has been living on the fringes, finds his life changed when he is offered a million dollars for his latest and most personal work – The Dying Gaul, a raw, autobiographical story of the death of his male lover.
There is one catch – the studio demands that Robert change his dead lover’s character from a man to a woman to make the story more commercially viable.
Making the offer is Jeffrey (Campbell Scott), a smooth, ruthless and sexually avaricious studio executive who seduces Robert with the intoxicating Hollywood cocktail of power, money and sex.
When Robert confides to Jeffrey’s wife, Elaine (Patricia Clarkson) that he finds solace, both sexual and emotional, in the ghost-like world of chat rooms, the curious Elaine meets him there anonymously. As their online dialogue unfolds, she discovers that Robert and her husband are having an affair. The shock of that revelation – and the unexpected way she responds – sets off a dangerous series of deceptions, confessions and betrayals.

Vantage Point Movie Review 
Although the whole idea of this movie is to focus on each main character and show the terrorists' attack from different viewpoints, it doesn't hide the fact that the story just isn't that exciting. If this had been shot in a conventional sequential manner it would have been a standard run-of-the-mill thriller.

The Other Boleyn Girl Movie Review
I had been excited to see The Other Boleyn Girl ever since I heard that the movie was being made. I loved the Philippa Gregory novel the movie was based on and I am also very interested in the Boleyns’ history so I knew I had to see this movie! Sadly, it did not live up to my high expectations.
