ALWAYS - DVD MovieConsidered by many to represent a low point in Steven Spielberg's career, 1990's
Always did suggest something of a temporary drift in the director's sensibility. A remake of the classic Spencer Tracy film
A Guy Named Joe,
Always stars Richard Dreyfuss as a Forest Service pilot who takes great risks with his own life to douse wildfires from a plane. After promising his frightened fiancée (Holly Hunter) to keep his feet on the ground and go into teaching, Dreyfuss's character is killed during one last flight. But his spirit wanders restlessly, hopelessly atta! ched to and possessive of Hunter, who can't see or hear him. Then the real conflict begins: a trainee pilot (Brad Johnson), a likable doofus, begins wooing a not-unappreciative Hunter--and it becomes Dreyfuss's heavenly mandate to accept, and even assist in, their budding romance. The trouble with the film is a certain airlessness, a hyper-inventiveness in every scene and sequence that screams of Spielberg's self-education in Hollywood classicism. Unlike the masters he is constantly quoting and emulating in
Always, he forgets to back off and let the movie breathe on its own sometimes, which would better serve his clockwork orchestration of suspense and comedy elsewhere. Still, there are lovely passages in this film, such as the unforgettable look on Dreyfuss's face a half-second before fate claims him. John Goodman contributes good supporting work, and Audrey Hepburn makes her final screen appearance as an angel.
--Tom KeoghSAVING GRACE:SEASON 1 - DV! D MovieThere are very few television shows that revolve around! a singl e figure to the extent that
Saving Grace does. Then again, there are even fewer that can boast an actor as good as Oscar winner Holly Hunter in the lead role, and Hunter draws on her considerable chops and charms to bring to life a character who, while certainly sympathetic, isn̢۪t always especially likable. Her Grace Hanadarko, a detective working for the Oklahoma City Police Department̢۪s Major Crimes division, is a mess. We̢۪re barely into the pilot episode (the first of thirteen comprising the show̢۪s first season) before we discover that her married partner is just one of Grace̢۪s many bedmates (promiscuous is one way to describe her; slut is another), and that she̢۪s a heavy smoker and drinker and a foul-mouthed, habitual liar. And that̢۪s on her good days. There are reasons for all of this, of course--turns out that the death of her sister in the 1995 terrorist bombing that claimed 168 lives is just one of them--but it̢۪s only when Grace commits a parti! cularly stupid and reckless act that the potential for redemption appears in the form of Earl (Leon Rippy), a tobacco-chewing good ol̢۪ boy who just happens to be an angel. A "last chance angel," to be exact, who suggests that if Grace will simply turn herself over to God, good things will ensue.
It won̢۪t be easy. Despite Earl̢۪s good-natured appeals (along with an occasional spectacular display of God̢۪s awesome powers), Grace is nigh on incorrigible. And while each episode features a crime of some sort, ranging from murder and child abduction to the theft of a million-dollar statue of a steer, creator-writer Nancy Miller (who was an executive producer for The Closer, another TNT series with a strong female lead) focuses much more on Grace̢۪s ongoing struggle to accept Earl̢۪s presence ("Why me?" she asks. "I don̢۪t know," comes the reply) and do something to clean up her life. The show̢۪s bluesy, authentic music (including Everlast̢۪s title tune), dr! y sense of humor, and sexy tone (Hunter, looking very buff, is! nearly nude on numerous occasions) are all positive elements; so̢۪s the supporting cast, especially Rippy and Laura San Giacomo (as a police examiner who̢۪s Grace̢۪s best pal). But Saving Grace is all about Holly Hunter, and by and large that̢۪s a very good thing. Bonus features include audio commentary by Miller and others on two episodes and several short featurettes. --Sam GrahamThis is a great HAND-SIGNED 8x10 photo!
