Movie description
Director Oliver Stone chalks up an ambitious entry on his biopic resume (past entries include films about Jim Morrison, Richard Nixon, and JFK among others) with this cinematic treatise on the life of the mighty Alexander the Great. Despite his young death at 32, Alexander packed some unimaginable conquests into his limited years by ruling over a huge chunk of the globe. Stone draws on a voice-over narration provided by Anthony Hopkins, whose character is named Ptolemy, to aurally depict some of the battles. Thus, Stone shifts the weight of the film to focus on the personality of Alexander (Colin Farrell), a man who is stricken by overwhelming personal insecurities that come in direct contrast to his bold achievements. Complex dealings with his mother (Angelina Jolie) and father (Val Kilmer) plague him, as does his turbulent relationship with his wife, Roxane (Rosario Dawson). His connection with his best friend, Hephaestion (Jared Leto), is ambiguous, with Stone touching on their vaunted homosexuality via some shared tender moments. As these personal battles are played out, Ptolemy fills the historic gaps in the narrative by charting the incredible conflicts that raged at Alexander's behest. Eventually, Stone lets loose with an epic on-screen battle, which sees Alexander's troops rumble across India in another country-conquering quest. But while his minions struggle, and Alexander demands success, it becomes clear that he is his own worst enemy. With the only real threat to Alexander coming from a tempestuous struggle with his own ego, Stone's summation of the great historical leader paints a picture of an embittered and solitary figure who was able to rule everyone apart from himself.

Alexander (Director's Cut/ Pan & Scan) DVD NEW

Brand NEW Sealed

Lauren Ambrose shines in this offbeat family drama about a high school graduate, Evie (Ambrose), blowing a series of college-admission interviews, embracing loneliness, and giving mixed signals to a boy (Fran Kranz) who has loved her since grade school. Meanwhile, Evie's distracted mother, Martha (Amy Madigan), prepares to present her other daughter, Emily (Taylor Roberts), a retarded savant, to the world as a wunderkind poet (the poems are actually Evie's) while her dad, Harry (John Savage), an investment banker, never emerges from his basement hobby room. The imaginative story, based on a play by Dawn O'Leary (who wrote the adapted screenplay), is slightly strained within the parameters of a feature film. But Admissions is graced by a number of strong, memorable individual scenes and some sensitive, deeply touching performances, including Christopher Lloyd's work as a remote, lonely teacher briefly aroused by Martha's quixotic mission to unveil Emily's miraculous lyricism
