Johnny Truelove likes to see himself as tough. He’s the son of an underworld figure and a drug dealer. Johnny also likes to get tough when things don’t go his way. When Jake Mazursky fails to pay up for Johnny, things get worse for the Mazursky family, as Johnny and his ‘gang’ kidnap Jake’s 15 year old brother and holds him hostage. Problem now is what to do with ‘stolen boy?’ Credits: TheMovieDb.

Perry Movie Reviews: J4stringthang: OK Timberlake fans and haters alike, Calm Down! Largely regarded as “you know, that movie with Timberlake in it.” Alpha Dog was enjoyable. And Timberlake did a great job. He is definitely all grown up now. A strong supporting cast of Sharon Stone and Bruce Willis sure didn’t hurt. I loved how the cast worked so good together. They were very believable. The movie did a great job of showing us just how crazy and out of control a simple misunderstanding can get. Hopeful Hollywood does force Ben Foster down our throat! Small doses please! NOTE: Alpha Dog has a lot of language in it. DoryDarko: Going into this film, I had no idea what it was about, only that it was based on a true story. And the more I think about this fact, the truth behind it all, the more it saddens me. The story that unfolded before my eyes...

Z Channel: A Magnificent Obsession

Xan Cassavetes’ Z CHANNEL: A MAGNIFICENT OBESSION (2004, TCM) ends with Z Channel programming director Jerry Harvey’s favorite love song, “What’ll I Do,” played over a montage of scenes from films he programmed and, in many cases, saved from obscurity. It’s the perfect ending to a two-hour love letter to one of the first pay cable stations. From 1974 to 1989, the network won a devoted following in Los Angeles with an eclectic mix of classic, contemporary and obscure films. It achieved a golden era under Harvey, from 1980 until his death in 1988. A film fanatic, he created imaginative festivals, bringing back forgotten works, including those by famous directors, and pioneering in showing directors’ cuts of such films as HEAVEN’S GATE (1980), THE WILD BUNCH (1969) and ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA (1984) that had originally been butchered by production companies. When Harvey championed current films like SALVADOR (1986), he even influenced the Oscars, helping the until-then-forgotten picture pick up nominations for Best Actor and Best Screenplay. There are wonderful film clips sprinkled through the picture, which otherwise is mostly a talking heads documentary as co-workers, friends and filmmakers remember Harvey and the channel. Cassavetes is a sensitive interviewer and gets some great memories out of people. Occasionally, she overindulges them, and they go into lengthy production stories that really have nothing to do with the Z Channel. But when it hits, which is most of the time, the film is a testament to the power of movies as an art form and the impact of the people who love them.

Review "Z Channel: A Magnificent Obsession"

I watched "Z Channel: A Magnificent Obsession" directed by Xan Cassavetes. I found it very interesting and, for the most part enjoyable but it got a bit depressing near the end. From IMDb, the film is "The story of Z Channel, one of the first U.S. pay cable stations and its programming chief, Jerry Harvey. Debuting in 1974 in LA, their eclectic slate of movies became a prime example of the untapped power of cable television. " A number of films that had died or been killed through poor editing by studios were shown on Z Channel. Many initially poorly edited films were played in their full uncut version. Many of the films were auteur or art films. If you're interested in films and film history, I would recommend this movie.

I just want to say: for the last century, you’ve judged me so harshly. And it’s just strange that now you turn someone you claim to love. At least I’ve never done that. I’ve never bit someone I love, Djuna! I wouldn’t do that.
