Hoosiers - MGM (2000)
Review
A time existed when films were made of believable stories about implacable characters in real life’s unfortunate and grinding situations. Hoosiers is one of those films. It doesn’t ask the viewers for excuses, it makes you face along with players all the arduous decisions everyday people have to make despite all adversities crushing down on them. They couldn’t have paired better actors for those roles than Hackman and Hopper. If life gives you lemons go ahead and do what you gotta do. At a time when the Internet didn’t rule over anyone, this movie travelled fast by word of mouth throughout for good reason. The plot is well laid out on the cover of the DVD by Washington Post’s Leonard Martin; but your blood won’t start pumping until you click this masterpiece to play.

Match Point - DreamWorks (2006)
Review
Woody's Curve Ball. He had Dostoevsky's Crime And Punishment in his mind at the time (although not just this time), the gnawing eating pain of guilt paired with an obsession he was having with the Theme of Luck, and how it can change outcome in an instant. Depending on how the wind blows you may get away with just about anything. He had Scarlett Johansson as his muse at the time and nothing but one of his most superb thrillers came out as a result. If you haven't yet, when people tell you to watch it, they mean it!
