New Line Cinema’s The  Final Destination slashed its competition at the North American box  office, as the horror sequel took the No. 1 spot with a solid $28.3 million in  ticket sales, according to studio estimates Sunday.
The David R. Ellis-directed  fourth installment in the popular series delivered a better opening weekend  than its predecessors, scoring an average of $9,079 per theater at 3,121  locations. The  Final Destination is currently playing in both 3D and standard format.

Last week’s winner, Inglourious  Basterds, slipped to No. 2, fending off Rob Zombie’s new  entry Halloween II. Starring Brad Pitt (above), Quentin Tarantino’ World War II drama delivered another strong performance at the box office, earning [...]]]></description>

Derek Elley on Looking for Eric (above, Ken Loach and Eric Cantona) in Variety:
&#34;&#8230; helmer Ken Loach and writer Paul Laverty&#8217;s ninth feature together is  a curious hybrid: Three movies &#8212; boilerplate, socially aware Loach;  personal fantasy; romantic comedy &#8212; wrap around a central core of a  hopeless soccer fanatic who&#8217;s given a second chance to sort out his  life. As in many of Laverty&#8217;s scripts, problems of overall tone and  character development aren&#8217;t solved by Loach&#8217;s easygoing direction,  though when it works, Eric has many incidental pleasures.&#34;

Anthony Kaufman on A Prophet at indieWIRE:

Following a censored broadcast of the multiple-award winning Brokeback Mountain &#8212; minus the gay lovemaking scenes &#8212; on one of Italy&#8217;s public TV channels, Rai Due, Italian gay rights&#8217; groups have demanded that the network&#8217;s director, Antonio Marano, explain the channel&#8217;s decision to censor the film. 
Adding insult to injury, the cuts came days after the Vatican attacked an EU proposal for the UN to formally condemn anti-gay discrimination. (Now, when does the Catholic Boycott begin? Which film festivals will be affected in Catholic states and/or countries?)
&#34;Who had the presumption to think that an adult public could not handle the sight of kissing and intimacy between two men?&#34; inquired Aurelio Mancuso, president of the gay advocacy group Arcigay, which has [...]]]></description>

The New York-based group National Board of Review has selected George Clooney&#8217;s black-and-white biopic-cum-sociopolitical drama Good Night and Good Luck. (above, with Clooney and David Strathairn) as the best film of 2005.
Other winners include best director Ang Lee for critics&#8217; fave Brokeback Mountain; another critics&#8217; fave, Philip Seymour Hoffman, chosen as best actor for Capote; and best actress Felicity Huffman, who plays  a pre-op male-to-female transsexual in Transamerica.

The best foreign film was Paradise Now, the  story of two Palestinian suicide bombers directed by Hany Abu-Assad; while, inexplicably, leading man Jake Gyllenhaal (above, with Anne Hathaway) won as best supporting actor for his gay rodeo cowboy in Brokeback Mountain. 
Perhaps the NBR decided to categorize Gyllenhaal&#8217;s Jack Twist as [...]]]></description>

2005 Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award winners: Dec. 10, 2005

Jake Gyllenhaal, Heath Ledger in Brokeback Mountain (top); Daniel Auteuil, Juliette Binoche in Hidden (bottom). Noticeably absent from the L.A. Critics’ list of winners and runner-ups were King Kong, Munich, Match Point, Batman Begins, Paradise Now, The New World, and Memoirs of a Geisha. &#8220;We really did end up not going with anything big,&#8221; said Henry Sheehan, president of the L.A. Film Critics Association. &#8220;There was some support for King Kong for cinematography and production design, but there was almost nothing for Munich, maybe a couple of acting votes, but very scattered.&#8221;

Background
E. Annie Proulx&#8217;s short story &#34;Brokeback Mountain&#34; was originally published in the October 13, 1997, issue of The New Yorker. A prologue was added to the tale when it was included in Proulx&#8217;s collection of short stories, Close Range: Wyoming Stories. Proulx won a Pulitzer for her 1994 novel, The Shipping News.
***
&#34;&#8217;Brokeback Mountain&#8217; was/is one of a number of stories examining rural Western social situations. I was trained as an historian (French Annales school), and most of my writing is focused on rural North American hinterlands. The story was not &#8216;inspired,&#8217; but the result of years of subliminal observation and thought, eventually brought to the point of writing.&#34; E. Annie Proulx, interviewed by Matthew Testa for Planet Jackson Hole.

BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN Review: Part I
Much of the publicity surrounding Brokeback Mountain has focused on presenting Ledger and Gyllenhaal as hetero off-screen studs playing homo on-screen studs, as if &#34;acting gay&#34; &#8212; a couple of rough kissing scenes and a simulated sex act &#8212; is per se both a display of thespian courage and an example of great screen acting. Whatever those actors&#8217; sexual orientation may be, perhaps it&#8217;s true that they have been brave to tackle those roles. 
That said, in their scenes together Ledger and Gyllenhaal are utterly incapable of conveying, whether through a spark in the eye or a quivering in the voice, the passion that Ennis and Jack are supposed to feel for one another. The chemistry [...]]]></description>
