Opening The Week of Sep 19th
Quite a number of movies opening this weekend. The best of the lot is Ed Harris’ western “Appaloosa” not to be confused with the old Marlon Brando movie. Harris stars with Viggo Mortensen as peacekeepers of a town terrorized by Jeremy Irons.
On a romantic note, “Ghost Town” with Brit Office’s Rick Gervais is a guilty pleasurable romantic comedy. For those who like films on the wild side, Quentin Tarantino has a role in Takashi Miike’s “Sukiyaki Western Django”, the weekend’s most outrageous movie.
Happy picture-going!
