But take note: There are minor spoilers ahead.

'The Blind Side'
Sandra Bullock retrieves much of the career momentum that "The Proposal" gave her and that "All About Steve" threatened to kill with "The Blind Side," a surprisingly smart and moving drama about a Memphis steel magnolia who doesn't truly bloom until she takes in a homeless teen and gives him a life.

‘A Christmas Carol’
You cannot ruin the essence of “A Christmas Carol.” The example of a man who learns that wealth is not happiness, but happiness is wealth, is surely eternal.

Reviews of recent and upcoming DVD releases
Where God Left His Shoes (NR, 2008, IFC Films)
It’s November, which means it’s Christmastime as far as studios, merchandisers and marketers are concerned. It’s also 2009, which means it’s high time for a holiday movie that name drops the economic downturn in some way.

VALLEY SOUND: Michael Jackson's "This Is It" proves to be a touching tribute
I wasn't sure what to expect from Michael Jackson's "This Is It," a film that combines rehearsal footage from his practices for what would have been an ambitious 50-night series of concerts that likely would have put the King of Pop back on top of the world. It's sad in some ways, knowing he never got to take his act to the stage, but it's also a moving tribute that shows just how important Michael Jackson was and will always be to the music industry.

The Man Who Stares at Cats
Spent a lot of time working on my screenplay this weekend. It's called "The Man Who Stares at Cats." It's about an aging Army veteran who stares at his cats, Saddam and Osama, in an effort to get them to stop vomiting on his carpeting. It's semi-autobiographical.
