I Am Sam [2002]

starring: Sean Penn|Michelle Pfeiffer|Dakota Fanning
directed by: Jessie Nelson

October 28, 2002
A brilliant film, perhaps a word too often used, but nontheless, brilliant. Penn's consitency of performance is the key, ably supported by the main characters and cameo's from a few other good actors taking bit parts. Excellent and recommended.

Corrina, Corrina [1994]

starring: Ray Liotta, Whoopi Goldberg, Tina Majorino, Noreen Hennessey, Lucy Webb
directed by: Jessie Nelson

I come back to this film again and again. There is nothing too original about it, but it is all well written, well observed and well acted.

Whoopi Goldberg plays Corrina, the housekeeper who makes a huge difference to a widower and his young daughter. Her comic talent is used to great effect. It's a rare romantic lead for Ray Liotta. He is better known as a gangster in films like 'Goodfellows', but this one proves he is a versatile actor. The daughter played by Tina Majorino, will move the meanest heart.

Set in the late 1950s, the contemporary pop and maybe older jazz songs used for the soundtrack set the mood and certainly enhance my enjoyment.

The interracial love thing still seems more of a taboo ... Read More:
