Jennifer Jason Leigh
Jennifer Jason Leigh—
Margot at the Wedding
—10/13/07
Jennifer Jason Leigh: 'One of the big ones was Al Pacino in
Dog Day Afternoon
...it made a huge impression on me.'
Road to Perdition (2002)
The top-billed actors deliver: Hanks with his resonant reserve and Newman in conveying Rooney's failed attempt to live up to his self-image as the ultimate just and loving patriarch.
In the Cut (2003)
The Machinist (2004)
The Jacket (2005)
That Maybury's film avoids easy categorization (and the increasingly cheap twistiness of today's psychological horror thrillers) is one of its finest points.
Palindromes (2005)
Greenberg (2010)
Greenberg
doesn’t amount to much, really, but it’s an enjoyably amusing character study with plenty of little pleasures.
The Spectacular Now (2013)
A mature film about immature people, tenderly performed by its young leads and skillfully adapted, by
(500) Days of Summer
screenwriters Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber, from Tim Tharp's YA novel.
Welcome to Me (2015)
Wiig plays her role with total commitment, fearlessness, and lack of vanity...the movie we deserve in the age of social media and cable television, a satiric child of Paddy Chayevsky's
Network
in its autopsy of "vox populi" viral video...
Anomalisa (2015)
Yet another midlife-crisis white guy on the big screen...but it’s undeniably an artful rendering of the post-millennial man adrift, in search of any port than the one he’s made for himself.
The Hateful Eight (2015)
[A] general absence of something to say...Recycles the filmmaker’s own work: the leaner if no meaner dog-eat-dog plotting of
Reservoir Dogs
...and a roster of no-longer-shocking offenses...
