Welcome back! The Nerve offices were closed Thursday and
Friday however we often publish on days we’re not in the office so there’s lots
to catch up on from Friday. We’ll start with film.
Fridays we publish film and DVD reviews as well as interviews.
This week we had reviews of…
I’m Not
There: “When I'm Not There is good, it's very, very good, and when it's bad, it's merely
annoying.”
Hitman: “Hitman is an insult to violent trash.”
The Mist:
"The
Mist is a large-scale Twilight Zone episode. And despite some glaring missteps, it's a decent
one."
August
Rush: "Even if you're not the musical type, you
might suspend your disbelief long enough to be stirred."
Feed
(DVD): “Feed
plays like a nostalgic political blooper
reel — but not a particularly tight one.”
We also had an interview
with Lili Taylor.

“I think I get the same feeling of
meaning from psychology that I get from acting. Sometimes reading a good book
about psychology, about the human condition, I feel filled up with a sense of
meaning. And that's what acting can do, too, to me.”
