| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 14, 2007

Thanks to Morton's presence, it gets closer to the sweetness of the wonderful Everyone Says I Love You.

| May 26, 2006

Focusing on the story, the auteur explores his two favorite topics, jazz and s----heels, to enter the new millenium in style.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Dec 6, 2005

... seems to be the latest chapter in a great work on the artist's search for meaning, for self-worth, for redemption.

| Original Score: B | Dec 6, 2004

If you aren't sure you like jazz, see this movie just to be exposed to the Django sound! Your next trip might be to the record store.

Combining the worst traits of his two most recent outings--the overweening cruelty of Deconstructing Harry and the formal and narrative laziness of Celebrity.

| Original Score: C- | Mar 19, 2003

The movie can never muster up the courage to take itself seriously.

| Original Score: short | Feb 21, 2002

It is put together so well you can believe that this human misfit with a terrible taste in tailoring, an insatiable thirst for liquor, an appalling way with women, yet with a guitar in his hand seemingly guided by angels, was a real person.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 17, 2001

The jazz is certainly here, but the passion is missing.
