[6] There’s no overt violence in A Dangerous Method [7]. But for all its gentility, the latest from filmmaker David Cronenberg is right at home with his longstanding preoccupation with “abnormal” psychology.
[9] With its gentle humor and forgiving view of human nature, Lasse Hallström’s Salmon Fishing in the Yemen [10] is a low-keyed charmer that will leave most of us with bemused smiles plastered across our mugs.
[12] Tabloid [13] finds heavy-duty documentarist Errol Morris delving into a lurid, torn-from-the-headlines scandal to reveal the face of a true American eccentric. And boy, is he having fun.
[15] Sarah’s Key [16] is actually two movies, one a look at the horrors of the Holocaust and the other not-terribly-compelling detective story in the present, that dovetail to make a more-or-less complete whole.
