2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY
starstarstarstarstar
When first released, this beautiful, confounding picture had one half of the audience cheering and the other half either scratching their heads or snoring. Thirty years later it's still befuddling, but one thing is clear: Stanley Kubrick's treatment of Arthur C. Clarke's novel is a landmark in science-fiction filmmaking, proof positive that the genre could yield a serious work of art able to stand alongside the great films of the era. With Keir Dullea, Gary Lockwood and a computer named HAL. Read the complete review for 2001: A Space Odyssey

  • Movies-on-TV: Ken Fox's Picks for the Week of Feb. 4 | Today's News: Our Take | 2/4/2008
    Monday, Feb. 4, at 2:45 pm/ETGimme Shelter | SUND It's been said that the '60s came to a crashing halt at California's Altamont Speedway where, in 1969, the Rolling Stones at their most satanic played "Sympathy for the Devil" while the Hell's Angels rampaged and a young man died. You'll get no argument from me: This classic concert film from the Maysles brothers captures the dark twilight of the Age of Aquarius.Tuesday, Feb. 5, 8 and 9:45 pmEnter the Dragon | AMC Bruce Lee is a legend for a reason, and even if you don't think you like "chop-socky" flicks, you need to check this one out. Lee stars as a martial-arts expert who enters a contest held in a remote island fortress, a setup that's been copied endless times ever since. This was Lee's last completed film before his untimely death in 1973, and he's spectacular.Wednesday, Feb. 6, 8 pmVertigo | TCMI still personally prefer Notorious and Shadow of a Doubt, but I certainly won't throw down with anyone who contends that this dark... read more
  • House and Crew Take On a Space Case | TV Show Recaps | 10/3/2007
    Episode Recap: The Right StuffOooohhh, trippy. Gotta love an opening sequence that references both Stanely Kubrick's classic a href=" 2001: A Space Odyssey and House's acid trip last season. I'm sure synesthesia (the Patient of the Week's initial diagnosis, a condition in which she "started to hear with [her] eyes") is awfully disconcerting, but it sure looks neat.To start things off, House assigns his group of hopefuls the task of diagnosing Buddy Ebsen, the original Tin Man in The Wizard of Oz, who had to give up the role after he developed a life-threatening allergy to the costume's silver paint. But a far more interesting — and breathing, paying — test case walks in the door, in the form of an Air Force captain and NASA hopeful, who offers House $50,000 in cash to figure out what's wrong with her, on the condition of preserving her anonymity. (Apparently NASA doesn't send biological lemons into orbit.) So House introduces her to the class as Osama bin Laden and sets... read more
