ME, MYSELF & IRENE
Review excerpted from the Austin Chronicle
The Farrelly Brothers have long been accused, pointedly at
times, of intentionally “dumbing down” American cinematic
and pop-cultural values. The fact that these two brothers get
a kick out of excessively lowbrow toilet humor -- and the
fact that their massive audiences also enjoy this sort of
sub-sophomoric humor, in droves no less -- is taken as a
signifier that the country is on some sort of massive mental
downturn, with projected results of deflated math scores and
wanton pie-throwing in the streets. Why can't Johnny read?
It must be those darn Farrellys. Election year hysterics
notwithstanding, I think detractors of the Farrellys' strain of
rump 'n' bump humor are overlooking the fact that their
four films -- the woefully underappreciated Kingpin, Dumb &
Dumber, There's Something About Mary, and now Me, Myself &
Irene -- are as zealously intellectual in their
anti-intellectuality as the early Marx Brothers. It's smart,
pro-artistic comedy masquerading as insipid farce, a wolf in
clown's clothing, and rigorously Dadaistic in ways modern
audiences aren't likely to note... From their first film to their
newest, the Farrellys have shown a keen grasp of not only
the subtle comedic principles involved in semen gags, but
also the nuances of the traditional Hollywood romantic
comedy. Drop them 60 years in the past and they'd likely
have been helming Tracy and Hepburn or some bizarre riff
on Bringing Up Baby. Me, Myself & Irene continues their love
affair with bodily functions and mismatched lovers. Carrey,
returning to the crazed physical comedy with which he
made his name, plays Charlie, a repressed Rhode Island
Highway Patrol officer badly in need of some therapy. In
lieu of that, Charlie develops a split personality, which
manifests itself in the form of Hank, a cantankerous alter-ego
who surfaces when Charlie gets riled or forgets to take his
meds. The plot, something about rogue FDA agents and bad
cops, is so vague as to be downright vaporous. At any rate,
it's merely a Hitchcockian MacGuffin to bring star-crossed
AMERICAN
lovers Charlie, Irene (former Austinite Zellweger), and
bad-boy nonentity Hank together. It's also a showcase for
BEAUTY
some of the Farrellys' ripe, politically incorrect humor. In
short order, the film's takes on little people, albinos, the state
of New York, and even Woody Allen... If you think you can
groove on the sight of an undead Holstein being shot
through the head six times, not to mention Carrey's
flapdoodle mug going through countless maxillary
fluctuations, this may just be the best comedy/love
story/PETA-protest of the summer.

SHANGHAI NOON
(Review excerpted from The Austin Chronicle)
After more than 70 films, Jackie Chan has finally met his
match, and wouldn't you know, it's Owen Wilson (UT
acting alum and Wes Anderson's writing partner). With
his scruffy blond mane and that battered nose that looks
as though he borrowed it from Gerard Depardieu and
then ran it through a Cuisinart a few times before
conveniently forgetting to return it, Wilson's as unlikely a
movie star as you'll find. But there he is, stealing nearly
every scene from the mugging international action star
and turning what almost surely would have been a dry
and dusty parody of the Western genre into a whole new
breed of neurotic period comedy. There's no way to
overstate just how good Wilson is in this film. As
winningly inept train robber Roy O'Bannon, his goofy,
laconic delivery matches his tired black chaps and fringed
rawhide jacket to a tee: He's Robert Redford's Sundance
Kid filtered through a hickory haze of Woody Allen
quirks, hanging on to his last vestige of male pride as all
those around him head off for greener pastures. Shanghai
Noon opens with Roy and gang perched atop a butte
overlooking the train trestles below. He's using a crude,
hand-drawn map to patiently explain their plan of attack,
but the grizzled trio is having none of it. Frustrated, he
throws the map away, letting them “wing it” instead.
Anyone who's seen Wes Anderson's first feature Bottle
Rocket will recognize the allusion to Wilson's map-happy
character Dignan from that film -- whether this was a
planned homage or just one of those instances of great
minds thinking alike, it works, and the film follows from
there, gaining speed even as it trumps itself again and
again with some of the best comedic dialogue (courtesy of
Wilson's on-set rewriting skills) around... The fight scenes
here were choreographed by Chan's old Peking Opera pal
Biao Yuen, and although adherents of Chan's Drunken
Master theatrics will no doubt be less than impressed, it's
still head and shoulders (and arms and legs) above similar
Hollywood skirmishes. It's Wilson's film all the way...
When Wilson is on, ... he's brings an unexpected frisson of
surfer-esque chutzpah to the role of Roy, a bad guy with
good intentions, a cowboy who, dammit, just wants to be
loved.
If you enjoy Shanghai Noon, check out Owen Wilson's
freshman effort, the cult-classic gut-buster Bottle Rocket,

CHICKEN RUN
(Review excerpted from The Austin Chronicle)
A couple of years ago, I was idly wondering when
Aardman, the British animation studio, and their star
director Nick Park would get around to making an
animated feature when I heard the news that Chicken Run
had finally gone into production... Park had already nailed
three Academy Awards in the animation category for his
work on two Wallace & Gromit shorts -- 1996's A Close
Shave and 1994's The Wrong Trousers -- as well as an earlier
work from 1991, the sublime talking-animal gag Creature
Comforts. Clearly, this was an animator going places. The
Wallace & Gromit shorts, featuring the discombobulated
amateur inventor and cheese-fanatic Wallace, and his dog
Gromit, a model of perspicacity in his own right, have
since been collected in a couple of commercially available
videotapes. If you're new to this whole Aardman
Animation thing, I hereby urge you check them out as
soon as possible. Chicken Run continues Park and Aardman
head Peter Lord's fruitful partnership, and if anything, it's
even better than the short works Park has come up with
for the studio. The story follows the adventures of a group
of hens trapped in Mrs. Tweedy's (Richardson) chicken
farm, confined in tiny, claustrophobic barracks surrounded
by imposing metal fences topped by nasty-looking ringlets
of barbed wire. Head chicken Ginger (Sawalha, of Britcom
Absolutely Fabulous) spends her time devising various ways
to escape their eventual fate -- dinner... Chicken Run is
absolutely delightful filmmaking, chock-full of gorgeously
goofy animation and a storyline that cleverly echoes
everything from Stalag 17 to Cool Hand Luke, with pit stops
at Star Trek, The Great Escape, and even -- I kid you not --
The Shawshank Redemption. Park and Lord's subtly
ridiculous animation is, as usual, a wonder to behold, but
it's the well-wrought comedics of the storyline that sustain
the picture as a whole. Gibson's unplaceable Yank accent
is, well, interesting at best, but that's less a quibble than an
added touch of surrealism to the whole proceedings.
Finally, an animated film without any explosions,
pop-rock, product-placement soundtrack songs, or
ill-defined sense of moral ineptitude ... that's actually and
honestly fun for the whole family. 'Bout time, Nick, 'bout
time. Only at the Alamo, see original Wallace and
Gromit shorts before each show!
ROAD TRIP
Review excerpted from the Los Angeles Times
Road Trip marks the major studio debut for director Todd
Phillipps and his co writer Scott Armstrong, and it’s an
auspicious, sometimes outrageous way to start. They’ve
come up with an uproarious college comedy for
DreamWorks. Ivan Reitman produced National Lampoon’s
Animal House 20 years ago, and Road Trip--which Reitman
co-executive produced with Tom Pollock--continues that
rowdy tradition. Phillips and Armstrong have cleverly set
up a sturdy premise for all the shenanigans the
protagonists will encounter in their journey--an adventure
that for all its hi-jinks is not without a maturing effect on
everyone concerned. Along for the ride is E.L. (American
Pie’s Seann William Scott), a fearless and unabashed
hedonist; Rubin (Paulo Costanzo), more brainy than
zany; and Kyle (DJ Qualls), a skinny, unprepossessing
outcast cajoled into joining in because he has a car (it
works out nicely for him; he’s exuberantly liberated along
the way). Meanwhile, Barry (MTV's Tom Green), who
stays behind, has been charged with feeding white mice
to Josh’s pet python. This duty sets up an elaborate and
ultimately gratifying gag. It suffices to say that just about
everything you might imagine happening to the travelers
on the road does happen--and then some, much of it
raunchy and inspired by films such as American Pie,
There’s Something About Mary and even Porky’s. Road Trip is
consistently funny, but, to be sure, it’s undergraduate-guy
humor, hilariously gross and sometimes unfeeling. Yet on
the whole it works because its over-the-top humor is
supported by the filmmakers’ ability to view life with a
clear-eyed lack of sentimentality. They recognize that life
is full of treacherous villains and poke tart fun while
cheering on those daring to overcome every obstacle in
pursuit of their goals. Smartly produced and consistently
lively, the film shows its young actors to terrific
advantage, and there is every reason to expect that Road
Trip will jump-start their screen careers.
If you enjoy Road Trip, check out Todd Phillips'
previous film Frat House, an behind the scenes look at the
seedy underbelly of Frat culture, featured as September's

THE VIRGIN SUICIDES
(Review excerpted from The Austin Chronicle)
Young Cecilia Lisbon, her old eyes staring vacantly
from a face still puffy with baby fat, lies on a hospital
bed, the gashes in her wrists newly sutured. “What are
you doing here, honey?” the doctor asks her. “You're
not even old enough to know how bad life gets.” To
which Cecilia flatly responds, “Obviously, doctor,
you've never been a 13-year-old girl.” At the root of
this shimmering, confident debut from director Sofia
Coppola is a profound sympathy for what it means to
be an adolescent - the unspeakable pain and forbidden
lust, the mystery and morbidity of it all. The Virgin
Suicides follows a year in the short lives of the blond,
toothsome, and impossibly complicated Lisbon sisters
--Cecilia, the youngest, is followed by Lux, then
Bonnie, Mary, and the eldest Therese (I'm not giving
away anything to say that their lives end sadly; much
like American Beauty, their fate is sealed at the film's
outset). In their cozy 1970s Michigan suburb, the
Lisbon girls live under what must feel like the
suffocating supervision of their flighty science-teacher
father (Woods) and their strict mother (Turner, who
gained weight for the role), a severe woman whose
dimples and occasionally bright eyes whisper of the
great beauty buried under all the frump. Like the
Jeffrey Eugenides novel from which Coppola faithfully
adapted the film, The Virgin Suicides is narrated
collectively by a group of men (given voice by
Giovanni Ribisi) who remain, 25 years later, consumed
by the petal-pink memories of the Lisbon sisters and
haunted by the sadness that they could not
penetrate...Coppola's film is darkly comic at times, but
it is never ironic about the music of the Seventies or the
feelings of the teenagers whose stories are being told.
In an astonishingly assured film debut, Coppola
captures the poetry and sweetness of Eugenides' novel
without allowing any of the standard rites of passage --
first dates, high-school dances -- to feel trite. The film
unspools with such a rich and peculiar unpredictability
that it feels as though we are seeing -- or dreaming --
these things for the first time.

QT QUATTRO
AUGUST 25-SEPT 2
Quentin Tarantino live in person
presenting bad-ass movies from his personal archives
Harry Knowles, overlord of Ain't It Cool News writes:
"Hey film fans!!! Well the coolest film fest around is
getting a bit cooler this year. The first fest was covered
HERE!!! And the second one was covered HERE!!!! Why
are these festivals cooler than any other in the world?
Well... Quite simply because other film festivals don't
allow drinking beer while watching the films. Other
film festivals have 'art films' and here... well here are a
sampling of some of the 'nightly' themes:
CONTROLLED HYSTERIA, NEGLECTED 70's CRIME
FILMS, CHUNG CHE KUNG FU, ALL NITE
HORROR-THON, BIKER NIGHT, POMPOMS GONE
AWRY, EPIC ADVENTURE and much more. This isn't
a festival to get autographs... that's not on the agenda.
Instead it's a mainline of film love straight into the
jugular. It's not about pushing your scripts or hooking
up with the 'in' people. It's about sitting and surviving
and thriving on films for nine straight days. It's about
forming spiritual friendships that can only be sealed
through the flames of film. I'll be there through it all,
you'll read the drunken ramblings of this pitiful soul... I
CAN'T WAIT!!!"
9 to 5ers, request time off from work now;
out-of-towners, book your flights now; and the rest of
you with an unquenchable thirst for the most amazing
cinema of the past 40 years, mark your calendars and
start to get pumped up. Quentin Tarantino and a cargo
truck filled with movies are headed to the Alamo

EL VALLEY CENTRO
WED, JULY 19, 7:00
(1999, d. James Benning, NR, 90 min, free admission, all ages)
In a media age dominated by rapid fire imagery and pounding
soundtracks, it is rejuvenating to encounter a film that invites
the viewer to find rapture and meaning in the details of a
single, quiet frame. Veteran experimental filmmaker James
Benning extends such an invitation as he turns his signature
meditative gaze toward California's Central Valley in his
exceptionally beautiful film, El Valley Centro. Employing
natural sound and contemplative proscenium shots, Benning
skillfully composes a series of pure and majestic images that at
once evoke a sense of nostalgic splendor as well as deliver a
subtle, yet penetrating, political commentary. El Valley Centro is
the work of a master filmmaker at the top of his craft. -Shari
Frilot (notes from SUNDANCE2000). Filmmaker James
Benning will conduct a Q&A session following the screening.

GOD OF COOKERY
SUN, AUGUST 6 7:00 & 10:00
(1996, d. Lik Chi Li, PG, 90 min., $6, $4.50 students, passes
not valid) God Of Cookery takes the already over-the-top
premise of the hit TV show Iron Chefs and revs it up to
dangerous levels of Hong Kong insanity. The God Of Cookery
is overthrown by his talented but backstabbing apprentice.
Penniless and dejected, the God Of Cookery finds cloistered
transcendence in the kitchen of Shaolin Kung-Fu temple
where he learns broken-dog style chopping and ultimate
kung-fu cooking techniques strong enough to warrant a right
to challenge for his old God Of Cookery title. Of course this is
only the main plotline. The story bulges out in all directions
with subplots of violence, true love, kung-fu, betrayal,
capitalism, tragic death, spiritual awakening, toilet humor
and exploding pissing shrimp balls. Jim Carey has allegedly
purchased the rights to this film and has plans to team with
Stephen Chow to produce an American version of the film.
And yes, true to form, the Alamo kitchen will be augmenting
our regular Hong Kong Cinema menu with God of Cookery's
exploding, pissing, shrimp balls.

BOTTLE ROCKET
AUGUST 10-12 MIDNIGHT
"An offbeat crime caper that turns convention on its head,
Bottle Rocket is the sort of endearingly oddball project that
will be remembered for years to come...for the formidable
talent it introduces to the world." Michael Medved, New
York Post
(1996, d. Wes Anderson, 92 min, R, $4, 21 and up, 18 and
up on Thurs, passes welcome) My wife and I recently went
to see Shanghai Noon. We went in with zero expectations
and left happy, all due to the subtle, lovable comic charm
of Owen Wilson. His character in Shanghai Noon is simply
a slightly more together Dignan stripped of his yellow
jumpsuit and dressed in cowboy gear. Within 24 hours,
we had booked for the next calendar the film that started it
all, Bottle Rocket. In Bottle Rocket, our lovable loser
protagonist Dignan has dreams of becoming a big-time
criminal, but you know just by looking at him that nothing
is ever going to work out. The lovable ineptitude with
which he executes his capers completely charms you. You
laugh at Dignan and his gang, but by the same token, if
you knew Dignan personally, you would be in the face of
anyone else who dared to ever laugh at him.
THE DARK SIDE OF THE RAINBOW
PINK FLOYD'S 1973 SOUNDTRACK FOR THE WIZARD OF OZ.
AUGUST 11-17, 9:30 PM
"Jung, of course, prefers to regard it as synchronicity -- his
own label for an alleged resonance in nature, or between
nature and its various parts, including us -- a resonance
which creates seeming 'coincidences' so startling that most
of us, fundamentalists excluded, sense deeply that they
require an explanation." - (The New Inquisition, by Robert
Anton Wilson)
(1939, d. Victor Flemming, G, 18 and up, $5, 112 min,
passes welcome) Dark Side of the Rainbow is The Wizard of
Oz played with no volume synched up to Pink Floyd's
Dark Side of the Moon played with much volume. When
you start the Dark Side of the Moon album on the third roar
of the MGM lion in the Wizard of Oz, all kinds of
synchronicity hijinks ensue. We will provide you with a
complete play by play list of all 100+ synchronicity "event"

HEATHERS
AUGUST 17-19 MIDNIGHT
ALSO 4:30 SEPT 19 & 20
(1989, d. Michael Lehmann, 102 min, R, $4, 21 and up, 18 and
up Thursday and matinees) Heathers is not pretty in pink, all
pompoms and puppy love, but bodacious in black,
chalkboard noir, the dark side of the wonder years. A
cracked satire of the teen genre, it's as slangy, raunchy and
gutsy as a prom date with Carrie. Caught somewhere
between the numbing amorality of River's Edge and the
heartfelt sap of John Hughes, Heathers chides the pursuit of
popularity as it tackles the thornier topic of teen-age suicide.
Wynona Rider plays Veronica, a bitch-warfare veteran and
fringe dweller of the social elite club of Heathers who

THE AUSTIN FILM SOCIETY PRESENTS
QT QUATTRO
AUGUST 25-SEPT 2
At long last the time has come again for the single coolest
film event in Austin: The Tarantino Film Fest in its fourth
incarnation (QT QUATTRO). Each year, Quentin takes time
out from his schedule to hang out in Austin with friends
and watch movies, and you are invited to join in on the fun.
Quentin is one of the foremost collectors of forgotten, lost,
unsung and underrated film treasures of the past 40 years.
This August he is tooling into town with a cargo van full of
feature films, over 30 in all, all capable of blowing your
mind. The films are organized by theme each night, you
may or may not know the actual film titles before you sit in
your seat, and there are always a host of fabulous surprises.
Themes of years past range from pom poms gone awry to
neglected 70's crime to Italian Gore to Exploitation. You'll
have to have faith and trust in Mr. Tarantino to be your
guide to some of the best films ever forgotten. Tickets go on
sale for this year's QT Fest on August 7. Advance tickets are
available at the Austin Film Society (322-0145) and are only
available for film society members (this might be the
opportunity you've been waiting for to join). Individual
night tickets (subject to availability) will be sold at the door
to non-members. 9 day festival badges are $125, 5 day
passes are $75, single night tickets are $30 on Friday and
Saturday and $20 during the week. Each Saturday the
movies run all night long, Fridays are triple features and all
other nights are double bills.
Quentin Tarantino will guest host two Saturday Morning
Film Club screenings at noon on Saturday, August 26 and
again on September 1. These screenings are free for kids
and their accompanying adults only (kid-less adult fanboys
will only be allowed in if the event does not sell out!)

HIGH RISK
SUN, SEPTEMBER 3, 7:00 and 10:00
(1995, d. Jing Wong & Cory Yuen, 90 min. R, $6, $4.50
Students, 18 and up, passes not valid) High Risk is an
irresistible action film along the lines of Die Hard. It's also,
for those familiar with Hong Kong action star Jackie Chan,
one of the funniest pictures you'll see all year. Chan doesn't
appear in the film. High Risk stars Jet Li, the young
superstar whose popularity in Asia rivals Chan's. Here he
plays the bodyguard and stunt double for an internationally
famous Hong Kong star (Frankie Lane) who is clearly
intended as a Chan parody. Frankie does none of his stunts,
though he claims to. He's a drunk, a womanizer and very
nearly a coward. In the United States a similar send-up
could never be made because it would cause a scandal. As
Frankie, Cheung has several opportunities to imitate Chan's
martial-arts style -- the clowning, the mugging, the slapstick
touches, the exaggerated caterwauling. He's close enough to
the real thing that at times High Risk feels like the best of
both worlds: a Jet Li picture and a Jackie Chan picture
combined. Excerpted from the San Francisco Chronicle
Review (4 stars out of 4)
Hong Kong Cinema and Cuisine occurs the first Sunday of
every month. We feature the best in contemporary Hong
Kong action cinema and augment the experience by
featuring a completely Chinese menu.
