'The Company You Keep' **stars

i hate to say it but i must: this julie christie, robert redford vehicle is a damn bore. sorry jules. it goes nowhere much to slowly. it got lost between political thriller and docudrama and never found it's true way. what could have been an intelligent film has been embalmed.
i am left wondering howerver, what a christie/redford film might have been once upon a time. this is not it. wait for cable or whatever.

Oscarbation: A Look Back at 1997 for Best Actress

1997 was a good year for this category. it was loaded with talent that delivered amazing performances. rating them 1 to 5 was quite difficult for me to do. thEy all deserved to go home with the gold. but rank them i will. here goes ....

#5

helena bonham carter was wondrous to behold in 'wings of the dove'. she left an indelible mark as a lead actress in this film. again the oscar could have been hers with no argument from me

#4

helen hunt's performance in 'as good as it gets' was as good as it could/would get. she gave a wonderful, heartwarming performance. helen won the oscar on the coat tails of the best picture and best actor wins. yet as with the other nominees in this category in '97 her win can be justified. but her on and off 'new york' accent was a tad annoying. a best actress should be able to sustain it.

#3

kate winslet in 'titanic' was wonderful. kate's chemistry with leonardo decaprio was heaven sent. there was not a moment you think 'hey these two don't belong together'. they so belonged together that separating her performance from his is an almost impossible situation. his snub is one of oscar's embarrassments. kate will go on to win her oscar four noms later.

#2

judi dench in mrs. brown was simply wonderful. it remains one of the best screen performances of all time. a stage actress who fit(s) quite well on film. she was amazing as queen victoria in her 'private' life. i repeat the oscar could have been her's with no argument.

#1

let's begin with the premise that julie christie plays a 'b actress' in 'afterglow'. that alone is a major fete as she was/is one of the best 'A' actresses in film. the critics associations hailed her performance in 1997. her fans were rightfully rejoicing. she would not get the oscar come award night but her fans were the true winners because the mostly reclusive actresses of her time returned to the screen. had i been able to vote, ms. christie amongst all the aforementioned wonderful performances would have gotten my vote after alot of nail biting.

sublime

Happy Birthday Julie

simply the best and a cut above the rest

can it really be that ms. christie turns 70 today? where the hell does the time go?

'Doctor Zhivago' on Blu Ray Today: ****stars

Julie Christie Eye's Role in 'Girl With the Red Riding Hood'

Screen legends Julie Christie and Gary Oldman are reportedly in talks to join 'The Girl With the Red Riding Hood,' Heat Vision is reporting.

Amanda Seyfried ('Dear John,' 'Letters to Juliet') stars in the "gothic horror reimagining of the Little Red Riding Hood fairy tale," about a medieval woman who is terrorized by a werewolf. Shiloh Fernandez and Max Irons co-star as Seyfried's character's lover and fiance, respectively.

If cast, Christie would play Seyfried's grandmother who, according to the report, has a knack for knitting. Oldman would play Father Soloman, whose sole task is to find and kill the werewolf.

'Twilight's' Catherine Hardwicke directs.

The film would mark a major role for Christie, who has kept a relatively low profile since earning a Best Actress Oscar nomination for the 2006 film 'Away From Her.' Meanwhile, Oldman, who will appear in next summer's 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II,' has appeared in a number of projects in recent years, including 'The Book of Eli' and 'The Dark Knight.'

'McCabe and Mrs. Miller' and 'Nashville'

the robert altman classic 'mccabe and mrs.miller reunited julie and her former lover warren beatty. julie really stretched here playing an opium addicted madam in a small mining town. she received an academy award nomination for her 'mrs. miller'. she lost to jane fonda for 'klute'. a tough call really.

but the film is altman's all the way. along with 'nashville' they are classics. julie had a funny cameo in 'nashville' playing... well playing julie christie.
