Check back tomorrow for a scathing review of Alfonzo Cuaron's adaptation of Children of Men. Honestly, I would have liked it if I hadn't read P.D. James' classic novel. Artistically, I think it was pretty good, but I can't forgive the liberties it took with James' work.

YES! THE APOSTLE! Undoubtedly one of the greatest films ever made in this great country. In fact, it may be my favorite American Film. And Stalker was my favorite of Tarkovsky's films. What a wonderful list!
