the emotionality


DVD Picks of the Week: "Wall-E" and "Tropic Thunder"

I thought this summer was a really solid smorgasbord of studio-financed anti-blockbusters. I meant to write about both of these films in depth, but I think one is so touching and profound in its minimalistic beauty and the other so subversive and profanely perfect that perhaps whatever words I might be able to gather wouldn't do either film justice. They were both released today on DVD and I highly recommend you see both. Caution: Don't attempt as a double feature. The roller coaster of tears and laughter will leave your eyes dried out and your belly aching.
