    Ministry of Gossip

  6. 'Bobby'

    The death of Robert F. Kennedy in June 1968 marked the end of a certain type of idealism in American politics. In trying to translate the power of what Kennedy meant to so many people into a compelling film, writer-director Emilio Estevez has exceeded his reach with the historical drama "Bobby." Set on the day leading up to the assassination of RFK at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles, the film weaves together the stories of 22 fictionalized characters tangentially linked to that event with archival footage of the late senator as he campaigned for the Democratic presidential nomination. In the process, Estevez draws some rather obvious parallels between the Vietnam era and present-day social and political conflicts.

  9. 'Flight of the Phoenix' rises from ashes of hokey premise

    Orlando CityBeat Writer
    From the first frame of its trailer, Flight of the Phoenix had all the makings of a tough sell. Not only did a remake of the 1965 Jimmy Stewart vehicle seem as necessary as a frame-by-frame colorized retelling of Hitchcock's Psycho, it actually stars...

  11. Top-notch performances mark provocative 'Traffic'
