The Jack of all trades in the new film "The Ballad of Jack and Rose," played by the brilliant actor Daniel Day-Lewis, is no ordinary man. A proud survivor of the 1960's and its utopian promise, Jack lives alone on an island with his only daughter, Rose (Camilla Belle), a doe-eyed beauty with the milky skin and ruby lips of a fairy-tale heroine. Shrunk to near-skeletal size, his bones poking right angles through his clothes, Jack suffers from two heart conditions. One will soon put him six feet under. But before that, the other may send the terminal outsider and his daughter down the path of disaster, though one shaped more by the tao of Oprah and Dr. Phil than the tragedy of Lear and Cordelia. A story about the limits of love, "The Ballad of Jack and Rose" is also about the limits of idealism as well as, rather unfortunately, those of its restlessly ambitious writer and director, Rebecca Miller. — Manohla Dargi

ΤΑΙΝΙΕΣ
Η τηλεταινία «Ο θάνατος του εμποράκου» (1985), αποτελεί μεταφορά του ομώνυμου θεατρικού έργου (1949), του Άρθουρ Μίλλερ, που σημείωσε θριαμβευτική επιτυχία (παιζόταν στο θέατρο για 742 μέρες), πήρε τρία βραβεία συμπεριλαμβανομένου του μεγαλύτερου λογοτεχνικού βραβείου της Αμερικής (βραβεία Πούλιτζερ, Θεατρικών Κριτικών, καθώς και το βραβείο Αντοανέτ Πέρι), ενώ χάρισε αμέσως παγκόσμια αναγνώριση στον συγγραφέα.
Πρόκειται για την ιστορία μιας μεσοαστικής οικογένειας. Ο Γουίλυ Λόμαν, είναι ένας εμποράκος ο οποίος σε αρκετά μεγάλη ηλικία πλέον, έχει μείνει στα «αζήτητα», χωρίς δουλειά, αλλά κυρίως χωρίς συμπαράσταση από τους αγαπημένους του γιους. Η αγωνία του για το μέλλον των παιδιών του καθώς και το άγχος του ότι στα μάτια των άλλων μοιάζει αποτυχημένος, τον οδηγούν σε σύγκρουση μαζί τους.

Πηγή έμπνευσης για την εξέταση του μύθου του αμερικανικού ονείρου, αποτέλεσε για τον Μίλλερ ο πατέρας του, ο οποίος ήταν έμπορος γυναικείων ρούχων στη Νέα Υόρκη και στη μεγάλη οικονομική ύφεση, το 1929, καταστράφηκε.

Searching for The Wrong-Eyed Jesus is a captivating and compelling road trip through the creative spirit of the the Southern U.S. Director Andrew Douglas's film follows "Alt Country" singer Jim White through a gritty terrain of churches, prisons, truck stops, biker bars and coal mines. This is a journey through a very real contemporary Southern U.S., a world of marginalised white people and their unique and home-made society. Along the way are road-side encounters with modern musical mavericks including The Handsome Family, Johnny Dowd, 16 Horsepower and David Johansen; old time banjo player Lee sexton; rockabilly and mountain Gospel churches - and novelist Harry Crews telling grisly stories down a dirt track. - Written by Steve Haisman wrote:
