📝Mack's Micro-Reviews📝:
No bass? No problem. You see, Prince was an actual genius. The playful sensuality in his vocal and lyrical "come-on" was all it took to reach the #1 spot on Billboard's Hot 100 back in 1986.

Mack's Micro-Reviews:
" #LaughterInTheRain " by #NeilSedaka
Not sure why Neil looks like a "reasonable gangster" on the album cover 🤔🙂, but the track's refrain features stratospheric strings, and Sedaka's vocals are absolutely dulcet.

A story where old white male sheriffs agree that everything started to fall apart when people stopped saying Yes Sir and Yes Ma'am
#microreviews
A black-and-white film still of three old white men in strange hockey uniforms, while holding hockey sticks and wearing oversized, thick hockey gloves. The logo on the front of their jerseys includes a skull and two angled bones set atop a darkly colored heart.
MY WINNIPEG [Maddin/2007] Winsome, waggish, and moving memory poem. Like taking a strange and disorienting ride inside Kane's tumbling, shattering snowglobe. —DG

Film still from the movie THE DARK KNIGHT in a colored box frame. The image is a low-angle shot of the character of the Joker as played by Heath Ledger. He has mussed, greasy, green hair, is wearing sloppy clown makeup with a wide-drawn mouth, and has a dark purple suit on. His face is turned to the left in the direction of the camera, otherwise he is in profile. Two tall, Gotham City buildings loom in the background on both sides of him. He splits the image.
THE DARK KNIGHT [Nolan/2008] Lightly entertaining but muddled; this is a shallow meditation on the fascist implications of superhero myth. —AR

Film still from the movie LA VIE EN ROSE in a colored box frame. The image is of a woman with dark, curly, shoulder-length hair and a black dress looks forward with her eyes half closed. A female character in male B&W outfit stands behind her, to the left, with hands in pockets facing her back.
LA VIE EN ROSE [Dahan/2007] Mérite les éloges qu'il reçoit, bien que la petite fille est une actrice plus naturel. —TN

Film still from the movie 9 SOULS in a colored box frame. The image is of a young Japanese man wearing a white collared shirt with a white t-shirt beneath it. He is looking down and to his right, across his body, and wears a blank, impassive look on his face.
9 SOULS [Toyoda/2003] Unbalanced mix of Beat Takeshi quirk and BRIGHT FUTURE nihilism. Good ensemble comedy with too many WTFs. —TN

Film still from the movie ENCOUNTERS AT THE END OF THE WORLD in a colored box frame. The image is an underwater view near Antarctica. In moody, blue-green hues we see a cliff of darkened ice with what appears to be a large, lighter-colored jellyfish floating below darker “clouds” of grouped fish or ice drifting in the water above. It is an eerie, strange image.
ENCOUNTERS AT THE END OF THE WORLD [Herzog/2007] Quotidian banality alternates with ecstatic sci-fi views of Antarctica. Herzog displays his usual keen eye for oddity. —DG
