Michael Winterbottom
Michael Winterbottom—
A Mighty Heart
—06/07/07
Michael Winterbottom: 'I think, um, someone staged it. But it wasn't us...he did say all this on camera in front of the biggest possible audience you could have...maybe he could have found a quieter moment.'
24 Hour Party People (2002)
The Claim (2000)
Code 46 (2004)
Given the 'Big Brother' promise that 'the Sphynx knows best,' this fusion of our sci-fi noir future and Ancient Greek tragic past looks not unlike our uneasy present.
Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story (2006)
More movie-biz spoof than postmodern adaptation of the novel, but Winterbottom's film miraculously succeeds in doing both goals a degree of justice.
The Road to Guantanamo (2006)
As a look at the injustices blithely wrought in the name of democracy,
The Road to Guantanamo
comes none too soon.
A Mighty Heart (2007)
A docudramatic TV movie at heart, and there's something unseemly about the film's inherently predictable build to Pearl's climactic grief.
The Trip (2011)
Reunites the delectable pair of Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon, real-life actor-comic friends who play versions of themselves to highly amusing and oddly wistful effect.
The Trip to Italy (2014)
Comedy sequel
The Trip to Italy
is almost exactly like its predecessor
The Trip
, and for the most part, that's a good thing.
The Trip to Spain (2017)
If the dish has lost its pizazz, it remains comfort food for comedy connoisseurs.
The Wedding Guest (2019)
I’ll be damned if I can detect a pulse...Proves deliberately withholding, as if to punish us, along with its unlikeable characters, for expecting too much.
