		<description><![CDATA[Never, ever dismiss a grassroots movement (just ask Elizabeth Warren). Or the indignation of film critics, denied the chance to see what one of their clan has called “One of the year’s, even the decade’s, cinematic wonders.”  The result has been a flurry of petitions, blog-wails and unkind aspersions directed at Fox Seachlight, from here [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;The Woman in Black&#8221; has scared the bejesus out of audiences since first materializing in Susan Hill&#8217;s 1983 faux-gothic novel. Subsequently, this Victorian ghost story&#8217;s been adapted for British radio and television, and even for the stage. (The play opened in 1989 and is still selling tickets &#8212; the second-longest run in London history.) Now [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hitchcock / Selznick: Rebecca, Notorious, Spellbound (MGM) Hindsight is 20/20, but teaming of British perfectionist director Alfred Hitchcock and American iconoclast producer David O. Selznick was doomed to conflict. Selznick, who brought Hitchcock to Hollywood with an exclusive contract, was a director in all but name. He micromanaged his pictures down to the shot, rewriting [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was no director like Jean Rollin, the French horror fantasist who died in 2010 and left behind a strange and wonderful (and sometimes horrible) legacy in his distinctive films. His reputation never really extended beyond cult circles but the weird sensibility and distinctive style and imagery of his sex-and-horror exploitation films, and his ability [...]]]></description>

The multi-talented Leth also wrote, photographed and provided production design for &#8220;Ghosts,&#8221; which garnered good notices for visceral immediacy, as well as some critical cavils about [...]]]></description>

The evening of &#8220;Max Ophuls in Hollywood&#8221; is followed by two of his greatest French films, La Ronde [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cornel Wilde&#8217;s grim, fatalistic end-of-the-world thriller No Blade of Grass is a forgotten dystopian classic of its time. Gritty and brutal, built on fears of ecological devastation through pollution and overcrowding (with hints of genetic manipulation gone bad), this 1970 eco-apocalypse thriller seems to have gotten lost in the overcrowded apocalypse now science fiction cinema [...]]]></description>

Fiennes acted this anti-social über-soldier, based on a legendary Roman general, on the London stage in 2000 and came to believe that Coriolanus&#8217; rise and fall might [...]]]></description>

Overshadowed by the neo-realist films of the day, the satirical, smartly-made &#8220;The Overcoat&#8221; is just [...]]]></description>
