  1. 'No' is riveting historical fiction ★★★★

    "No" is a terrific film, and word got out very quickly at last year's Cannes Film Festival, where the Chilean docudrama deservedly made a lot of noise even though it played outside the main competition categories. No less than "Argo," "Lincoln" and "Zero Dark Thirty," director Pablo Larrain's achievement feeds the debate regarding truth and fiction and how much of the former a viewer needs when watching a movie that is, by definition, the latter.

  2. Australian film 'The Sapphires' finds its American soul

    "The Sapphires," which opens Friday, is the crowd-pleasing, based-on-actual-people story of four young Aboriginal women who team up with a male Irish manager and perform for American troops in Vietnam, so it's covering its bases internationally.

  3. Un Papa hispano ¿y Obama qué?

    Qué experiencia alucinante es, en la actualidad, ser latino y vivir en Estados Unidos. Los 52 millones de latinos de la nación observan infinitas oportunidades, poder e influencia alrededor del mundo. Sin embargo, cerca de casa ven puertas cerradas,...

  4. Gael Garcia Bernal's ad man has global reach

    In "No," 34-year-old Guadalajara-born actor and filmmaker Gael Garcia Bernal plays a cocky Santiago, Chile, advertising man who has thrived under the economic policies of the nation's U.S.-backed ruler, Augusto Pinochet. Asked to concoct a TV advertising campaign to bring down Pinochet in the 1988 plebiscite, he's intrigued — not necessarily because he's a stealth radical (though his father, we're told, was sent into political exile to Mexico) but because the "no" vote is deemed by many to be an impossible product to sell to a wary populace.

  6. Readers share ratings, quibbles

    The awards season has run its course. It's always a relief to see it in the rearview mirror. Even the winners feel that way.

    Predictability and the arts-and-entertainment world have an uneasy relationship.
    Predictability and the arts-and-entertainment world have an uneasy relationship. Predictability is a given — like the mouthfeel of a Big Mac — when it comes to, say, the punch lines on "Two and a Half Men" or the beats of your average...

  8. McManus: Gridlock, Tehran-style

    With the United States locked in confrontation with Iran, was it good or bad for diplomacy that "Argo," a movie about U.S. spies getting the best of the Iranians, won this year's Academy Award for best picture?

  9. Rachel Marsden: Leggo my 'Argo': Iran's unhealthy fixation on Ben Affleck

    American Voices
    PARIS -- When Ben Affleck's "Argo" -- a film based on the true-life, CIA-assisted Canadian operation to rescue American diplomats during the Iranian hostage crisis in 1979 -- won the Oscar for Best Picture, all I could think about was how badly Iran...

  10. McDonagh sets violently funny 'Seven Psychopaths' in epic desert ★★★

    Brutal and often very funny, "Seven Psychopaths" is writer-director Martin McDonagh's answer to "Barton Fink," a crimson yarn that, like that Coen brothers film, imagines what happens in a worst-case-scenario when a Hollywood scribe comes down with writer's block.

  11. 'Zero Dark Thirty' a first draft of history ★★★★

    To consider what director Kathryn Bigelow has accomplished in "Zero Dark Thirty," imagine the events depicted by the story if they'd been given the "Argo" treatment.

  12. Stars pick the directors they want to watch

    Let's say there's a row of beautiful movie theaters, and the marquee of each one reads, "New film by (name of filmmaker here)." And let's say there's no other information about the film itself. Which one would you choose? We offered this dilemma to some notable performers and filmmakers, asking the question: <strong>"If you could see a new movie by any living filmmaker &mdash; and not know anything about the movie beforehand &mdash; whose would you choose?"</strong> Here's how they responded.
