"Good deeds do not go unpunished as a caring couple try to give an abandoned child a loving home.

A touching story of compassion, The Throwaway Kid will equally melt your heart and have you laughing out loud."
"La vision incendiaire des relations interraciales de l'Amérique de la fin des années quatre-vingt est tellement colorée et exubérante pendant les premiers trois quarts d'heure de ce film qu'on est loin d'imaginer les terribles confrontations vers lesquelles il nous conduira inexorablement. Do The Right Thing est un chef-d'oeuvre joyeux et tumultueux, et peut- être même le film le plus réussi sur le racisme en Amérique. Il dévoile tou ..."
"It was New Year's Eve in New York City, 1928. The champagne was cold, the dolls were red-hot and everyone who was anyone was there. Shimmy on down to the speakeasy run by jazz-baby Miss Mussou (Anita Morris), where earnest Lovey Lou (Jennifer Grey) and dishy Hortense Hathaway (Madonna) sing and dance on the hearts of two-timin' pony player Regret (Matt Dillon) and hapless Feet Samuels (Randy Quaid), a lumbering oaf with a heart o' gol ..."
"Timecode divides the screen into four parts and follows, in four uninterrupted shots, a series of overlapping stories. There's the wife (Saffron Burrows) of a movie producer (Stellan Skarskård) who's considering leaving him; the producer is having an affair with an aspiring actress (Salma Hayek); and the actress is the lover of a wealthy woman (Jeanne Tripplehorn), who jealously plants a bug in the actress's purse when the actress pre ..."
"Mario Van Peebles (Judgment Day), Billy Zane (Titanic) and Stephen Baldwin (Fled) shake up the frontier in this "fast-paced, star-studded, big brawny western" (Janet Maslin, The New York Times)! Filled with gun-blazing, fist-pounding action and co-starring Big Daddy Kane, Blair Underwood, Tone Loc, Pam Grier, Isaac Hayes, Nipsey Russell, Aaron Neville and more, Posse takes a page missing from the history books – and unfolds it with sus ..."

"Back in the excess-is-best 1980s, the pared-down minimalism of 1984's Stranger than Paradise played like the product of another time--or even another planet. It was so "off," i.e. offbeat and off-kilter, it was (right) on. Now seen as a classic of American independent cinema, it compares favorably to other monochromatic first features, like Border Radio and Mala Noche (also lovingly restored by the movie mavens at the Criterion Collecti ..."

"Spike Lee's incendiary look at race relations in America, circa 1989, is so colorful and exuberant for its first three-quarters that you can almost forget the terrible confrontation that the movie inexorably builds toward. Do the Right Thing is a joyful, tumultuous masterpiece--maybe the best film ever made about race in America, revealing racial prejudices and stereotypes in all their guises and demonstrating how a deadly riot can erup ..."
"Even true love can be bad. Eloise (Gidley) works long hours in a dead-end job, then catches passionless quickies in cheap motels. Lenny (Sizemore) is a down and out loner who moves from one menial job to the next. Fate steps in and lust and passion take over as their romance sends them down a destructive road to porn, violence and crime."
