FilmWeek

FilmWeek for May 09, 2008

Every week, nearly a dozen movies open in the U.S. Most are independent films that won't ever see more than two weeks in a theater. Some think there are too many independent movies, too many bad movies, too many festivals, too many critics, too many awards shows and too many multiplexes. Larry and our FilmWeek critics Wade Major and Andy Klein discuss if there are too many movies today and ask our listeners to weigh in as well.

Plus: Larry and critics Wade Major, of boxoffice.com and CityBeat, and Andy Klein, of CityBeat, and Charles Solomon, animation critic for amazon.com review some of the week's new feature films including Speed Racer, The Fall, A Previous Engagement, Before the Rains, and the French film OSS 17 - Cairo, Nest of Spies.
