Match Point (2005)
Direction and screenplay: Woody Allen
Cast: Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Emily Mortimer, Matthew Goode, Brian Cox, Penelope Wilton
&#160;

&#160;

If Alfred Hitchcock were to direct a screenplay co-written by Nietzsche and Dostoevsky, and based on Theodore Dreiser&#8217;s An American Tragedy, the result would be something like Woody Allen&#8217;s latest opus, Match Point. A dark fable about the vagaries of chance in a godless world, Allen&#8217;s aesthetically old-fashioned crime drama belies a haunting postmodern sensibility. 
Set in London, the basic plot of Match Point follows certain key elements of Dreiser&#8217;s An American Tragedy: After experiencing the joys of wealth and high social standing (read: power), an ambitious petit bourgeois resorts to whatever it takes to maintain his newfound status.

MATCH POINT: Part I
Alternating with equal ease between femme fatale, sex object, and neurotic nag, Scarlett Johansson delivers what is arguably her most effective film performance to date. Both Emily Mortimer and Matthew Goode (a stage-trained actor who&#8217;s a &#8212; more likable &#8212; cross between Hugh Grant and Rupert Everett) provide solid support as the Hewett siblings &#8212; too privileged to be distrustful, too likable to be despicable &#8212; and so does Brian Cox as the generous Hewett patriarch. But it&#8217;s Penelope Wilton who steals the show whenever she&#8217;s on screen. A milder (British) version of the domineering mothers of several of Woody Allen&#8217;s New York-based comedies, Wilton&#8217;s outspoken matriarch is always meddling in her children&#8217;s affairs.
Much has been said [...]]]></description>

In Good Company (2004)
Direction and screenplay: Paul Weitz
Cast: Dennis Quaid, Topher Grace, Scarlett Johansson, Marg Helgenberger, David Paymer, Philip Baker Hall, Clark Gregg, Malcolm McDowell
&#160;

&#160;

Better known for his gross-out comedy American Pie and for co-directing (with brother Chris Weitz) the syrupy morality tale About a Boy (which received an Academy Award nomination for best adapted screenplay), Paul Weitz is hardly the type of talent one would expect behind a movie about a ruthless corporate takeover. But rest assured, In Good Company, despite its business dog-eats-business dog setting, is anything but heavy drama. 
In the film, Dan Foreman (Dennis Quaid) is the head of ad sales for the New York-based magazine Sports America &#8212; though not for very much longer. Right [...]]]></description>
