A critical look at the week's cinema releases.
Barton Fink won an unprecedented three awards at last year's Cannes Film
Festival. Brothers Joel and Ethan Coen , who also directed Blood Simple, Raising Arizona and Miller's Crossing, have a decidedly quirky style of film making. Fink is a writer, seduced by an attractive
Hollywood film offer, who has to come to terms with writer's block in a most bizarre hotel. It stars John Turturro (who also won the award for best actor at
Cannes) and John Goodman.
For the Boys stars Bette Midler and James Caan , who also recently starred in the Oscar-winning film Misery, as a war-time entertainment act in a comedy drama of survival and sheer nostalgia.
Plus an Australian film,
Death in Brunswick, by the award-winning director
John Ruane. Sam Neill plays the part of a cook in a sleazy Melbourne rock'n'roll club.
