  1. OFF THE WALL

    WHEN NEWSPAPERS WERE KING. Newspaper movies were, too, with their scrappy humor fueling some of Hollywood's sharpest films. Perhaps the best: Howard Hawks' "His Girl Friday" (8 p.m., Turner Classic Movies), the 1940 Cary Grant-Rosalind Russell screwball...

  2. Will Spielberg take a walk on the wild side?

    Steven Spielberg, who at 22 was hired by Universal to a long-term contract, started out his career as the teacher's pet of the Movie Brat generation. With the unveiling of his first Indiana Jones escapade in 19 years today at Cannes, he's proffering yet another polished apple.

  3. Steven Spielberg, family man

    With "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" finally out, it's a good a time to ask: Has any filmmaker pursued a single theme as obsessively over so many varied films as Steven Spielberg? Almost every one of his movies, no matter the genre,...

  5. Directors step up to take their shot at Oscar

    THE six nominees for this year's best director Academy Award have made a total of 23 feature films. To put that meager number into perspective, consider this: "The Departed," which finally won Martin Scorsese his directing Oscar last year (on his sixth nomination), was his 21st theatrically released feature. As with the acting categories, the best director Oscar often goes to overdue candidates -- which is to say, it's awarded for bodies of work as much as for the film under consideration -- but this year, instead of the usual lineup of establishment old-timers, voters are picking from a pool of career mavericks and comparative neophytes.

  6. 'Leatherheads' (a 1920's football rom-com starring George Clooney, 'The Office's' John Krasinski and Renee Zellweger)

    Tragically, "Leatherheads" is just OK, though the film may well find an audience among those eager for a little diversion, what with the nostalgia factor and the George Clooney factor. Clooney, who directs and stars, has what it takes to pull off the kind of old-school comic dash most contemporary actors find elusive. Like Cary Grant in "His Girl Friday," he's both clown and stud, a classier example of the movie stardom Burt Reynolds embodied, occasionally, a generation ago. But Clooney's third directorial effort, following "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind" and "Good Night, and Good Luck," is sidelined by a script that plays like an imitation of another era's artifacts. It's an oxymoron: a mild screwball romance.

  8. Scorsese finally joins the club

    Having won the Oscar for best picture, &quot;The Departed" will always, from here to eternity, have an aura of distinction, like a suave white-haired gent gliding into the Governors Ball in his tuxedo.

  9. Movie review: 'Pandora's Box'

    Tribune movie critic
    4 stars (out of four) Few movie goddesses can break your heart like saucy, black-banged Louise Brooks, whose centennial comes this year and whose best film and performance, as Lulu in G.W. Pabst's "Pandora's Box," plays this weekend at the Music Box...

  10. 'The Black Dahlia'

    It's often necessary to see Brian DePalma films twice -- the first time to get the muddled narrative storytelling out of the way and the second time to appreciate the operatic excess and intricate visual storytelling.
