Let the Right One In

This multi-award-winning Swedish film might be summarized as a vampire tween romance, but that cheap and tawdry sum-up does zero justice to the magnificent emotional resonance of this gem. A discussion of the adaptation follows the film.

Night at the Museum

Amid crummy sight gags and predictable physical comedy, sputtering scenes, and the stale and watered-down Stiller in another nonsense story, Night at the Museum is at best a rotation of backdrops for a parade of visual effects.

Taking Pictures

This year, for whatever reasons, Dick Holland writes, we have been blessed with photography books of great beauty and intelligence. Several of the leading figures in the canon of 20th-century photography are represented in this season's unusually rich outpouring, among them Eugéne Atget, Walker Evans, and Edward Steichen.

Paranoid Park

Gus Van Sant's new film about young male skateboarders is breathtaking, heartbreaking, tragic, gorgeous, and psychically true all at the same time.

This narrative re-creation of the skateboarding doc Dogtown and Z-Boys is a blast, as accurate as it ought to be with more than enough mythology and gut thrills thrown in for good measure.

This Spanish import is a coming-of-age dramedy whose (nearly) teenage stars are natural actors, whose direction is unforced, and whose sexual themes are treated with candor and humor.
