Quotes Frank : That's the point. Rod : And the ugly. User reviews 31 Review. Top review. The story line was little hoakie, more like a re-hash of Paper-Moon great movie by the way except without the sex scenes.
At any rate the filming of this movie was really intense and very visual. I really enjoyed how all the stories fit together. I would recommend this movie to everyone because it was real with no special affects or any computer imaging.
We need more movies like that to not distract us from the actors ability to act. John Hurt is one amazing actor. The rest of the cast was pretty good too. For anyone who likes independent films, this is one movie everyone should really take the time to watch with a nice glass of wine.

It is very much Ricci's film, and its success hinges on what the Austin Chronicle called her "great acting chops. In , Christina Ricci went back to her inner Wednesday Addams and drew on her gothic roots when she appeared in Tim Burton's supernatural horror movie " Sleepy Hollow. The New York Times reviewer wrote that, "Katrina is played photogenically by Christina Ricci, who gets through the film gamely while remaining very much a sardonic creature of her own time.
It was also cool to see Ricci play against-type and less sarcastic than usual, in a role that earned her a Blockbuster Entertainment Award, a Saturn Award, and nominations at the Teen Choice Awards and Young Artist Awards. Christina Ricci was focused on film for the vast majority of her early career, but in , participated in an ensemble TV movie called " The Laramie Project. Ricci appeared as Romaine Patterson, a close friend of Shepard's at the time of his death.
Few professional reviews exist for the television film, but the ones that do note Ricci as one of the breakout stars of the large ensemble. For instance, TV Guide praised Ricci, who they said had "one of the punchiest roles as Romaine Patterson, Shepard's fiery lesbian best friend. Everyone knows " Monster " as the movie that won Charlize Theron her much-deserved Oscar, but Christina Ricci also turned out a fine performance in the biographical drama.
Theron played murderous sex worker Aileen Wuornos, who murdered seven of her clients in and Selby eventually realizes Aileen is a serial killer, and later testifies against Aileen at her trial.
There is no denying the force that was Theron in "Monster," but it is a shame that focus was so much on Theron that Ricci was overlooked for her performance. Not everyone got it, but those who did were quick to offer praise. The movie is a very black comedy in which Ricci plays a nymphomaniac named Rae Doole who is discovered on the side of the road by religious farmer and former bluesman, Lazarus Redd Samuel L.
Once he realizes Rae is a sex addict, Lazarus holds her captive and deems it his duty to cure her of her wicked behavior. Ricci does incredibly good work her as a woman whose past childhood trauma informs her current-day sexual decisions.
And though the movie received mixed reviews, other critics also praised Ricci — calling her "better than ever" via The Austin Chronicle and "the right actor for the role" via The Chicago-Sun Times. We will never know exactly what Christina Ricci could have given us with " Pan Am ," since ABC canceled the show after only half a season.
But we do know that "Pan Am" was an inventive and enjoyable period drama, and that Ricci was great in the 14 episodes that did air. The show revolved around a group of stewardesses who would now be called flight attendants in the s Jet Age, all working for the now-defunct Pan American World Airways. Ricci's character Maggie Ryan was a bleeding-heart bohemian who was recently reinstated after being suspended for not wearing a girdle, and who lied about knowing Portuguese to get the job as a purser.
Ricci's first starring role in a television series was interesting and her character Maggie had ideals that often did not align with her behaviors. For instance, uber-Liberal Maggie had an affair with a Republican congressman she wrote a scathing expose about. Maggie also joined one of the pilots in smuggling alcohol and tobacco during flights, and consistently rebelled against the system, which gave Ricci much to do.
