		<description><![CDATA[We've seen a long, if mixed, record of musicians morphing into movie stars. For every David Bowie, there's a Peter Frampton. Whereas it's hard to argue Barbra Streisand hasn't enjoyed success and longevity on the big screen, Madonna's got her fair share of hits and misses. We won't get into the merits of the Neil Diamond Jazz [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[World-renowned Swedish violinist Holger Brandt (Gosta Ekman) knows what he is about to do is wrong, but he does it anyway, and invites gifted student pianist Anita Hoffman (Ingrid Bergman) out for a “late dinner and wine” after they meet—not so much by coincidence at all—exiting a theatrical performance. Anita has been providing piano lessons [...]]]></description>

You might think the answers to a question like that would typically be limited to the following: Yes. Or: No. Or: What a stupid question. But then, you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[New Year’s resolution: Watch more foreign films. Watching foreign cinema is a lot like eating your vegetables. You know you must do it to maintain a balanced and healthy diet, and while you may actually find you enjoy them once you taste them, it’s so much easier to just load up on cheeseburgers and fries. Maybe I’m just speaking [...]]]></description>

It's safe to say we've probably all done it at one time or another.

Big-budget motion pictures based on videogames are old hat. Films based on board games—which you’d think would have been buried forever based on the public and [...]]]></description>

This year, Martin Scorsese's film of it, Hugo (Gee, was the original title too "intellectual"?), is getting tons of high praise.
