robert benton has assembled a stellar , mature cast for his latest feature , twilight , a film noir mystery set amid the fading stars of hollywood .
paul newman stars as retired detective harry ross .
harry has spent the last couple of years doing odd jobs for jack and catherine ames ( gene hackman and susan sarandon ) , a pair of married actors who have fallen from the limelight .
when jack sends him on a routine delivery job , however , the old instincts kick in .
soon , harry is wading through a mystery where friendships and lives are on the line , and he no longer knows who to trust .
there are plenty of familiar faces throughout twilight , in addition to newman , hackman and sarandon .
james garner plays raymond hope , a former cop and one of harry 's best friends .
stockard channing plays verna , harry 's former partner , and possibly a former love interest .
reese witherspoon is mel , the distrustful daughter of the ames ' , and liev schrieber is her scuzzy boyfriend .
giancarlo esposito appears as harry 's bumbling detective protigi , and john spencer is a suspicious police captain .
with a cast like that , it 's almost worth watching twilight just to stargaze .
luckily , there 's more to the film than some sort of actor 's recognition ceremony .
twilight has a solid film noir - ish plot .
it may not have as many twists and turns as some of the classics , but it has much more than a lot of what passes for film these days .
the major cast members all deliver strong performances , as can be expected of their caliber .
however , none of them have that little extra oomph which would make them memorable .
the supporting cast is enjoyable , if a little underdrawn .
stockard channing 's character , in particular , is a cipher .
there 's more to her character than the film takes the time to describe .
it 's a minor , but irritating , flaw .
with a solid cast , and a good plot
, there 's a lot to recommend about twilight .
it 's biggest flaw is actually its short running time .
at a slim 94 minutes , there 's a lot of stuff that 's packed into an awfully small package .
still , the chance to see newman , sarandon and hackman working together is worth a cramp or two .

quiz show , an almost perfectly accurate true story , is based upon the events of the popular television show of the mid-50 's , " twenty - one " .
on this trivial game show , contestants were placed in isolation booths and then answered questions corresponding to a category of their choice , on which they wagered an amount of points on .
the game went on until a player reached twenty one points on felt they had earned enough points to win .
but , after ratings began to fall when players were struggling to break the zero mark , the producers decided to fix the game by giving the answers to a contestant before the game began .
quiz show illustrates the true stories of two particular contestants , herbie stempel and charles van doren .
stempel ( john turturro ) , a former g .
i .
and your jewish man raising a family .
stempel has been the reigning champion on " twenty - one " for many weeks and has accumulated thousands of dollars .
in his mind , he is the best thing on television and the people love him .
although , in the mind of the show 's producers , herbie stempel is getting old .
dan enright ( david paymer ) , in particular , feels that the people are tired of seeing a " jewish guy from queens with bad teeth " and that the kids need someone better to look up to .
therefore , they need to find another contestant whom would be a worthy role model and the people will look up to and cheer to win .
someone who can defeat stempel , even if they have to resort to cheating .
enter charles van doren ( ralph fiennes ) , a well - educated professor from a widely recognized family .
van doren had decided to try out for the game show " tic tac dough " because his friends thought he would be good at that sort of thing .
but when albert freedman ( hank azaria ) , enright 's assistant , spots van doren , the two decide that they have found their soon - to - be - ruler of the " twenty - one " kingdom .
van doren is not too keen on the idea of receiving the answers ahead of time , so enright tells stempel that he is going to give the wrong answer , on purpose , in order to lose the game .
after stempel loses the " throne " to van doren , he starts to feel cheated ( which he should ) .
meanwhile , on his own , dick goodwin ( rob morrow ) , a harvard law graduate , has decided to start an investigation on " twenty - one " to try and find out if there have been any wrongdoings .
his investigation yields shocking results and leads to a trial for enright and the others involved .
quiz show is an extremely well done movie , and robert redford 's direction is especially superb
.
the performances turned in by john turturro , ralph fiennes , and rob morrow are very good , although it seems that turturro stands out more than any .
quiz show is also very precise when it comes to explicating the true events that inspired the film .
definitely a film you should not miss .

in , " the muse " albert brooks plays steven phillips , a hollywood screenwriter who after winning a humanitarian award for his work is dumped by his studio .
they claim that he 's lost his edge and his agent is quick to agree with them .
he knows that he needs to write something fresh and original and quick or else his career will be over .
so he turns to his " best " friend , jack ( jeff bridges ) another screenwriter who 's enjoyed success after success .
on the way over to jack 's house steven sees jack helping an attractive woman ( sharon stone ) into a cab and begins to think : is he having an affair ?
when confronted , jack relunctently tells him that this mystery woman is , in fact , a muse , a mythological figure who is believed to have inspired all creativity , and has helped him garner his success .
"
she does n't do any actual writing , " he is told , " but inspires you .
" steven is excited by what he 's hearing and asks jack to call her up to see if she 'll take steven on as a new client .
jack arranges a meeting between the two and suggests that steven bring her a present , preferably something from tiffany 's .
after the meeting the muse , sarah decides to take on steven , but at a price : she wants a suite at the four seasons and wants steven to perform odd tasks for her ( like bringing her salads in the middle of the night . )
steven 's wife ( andy macdowell ) sees him at a food store and questions him about why he has tampons in his wagon .
steven confesses everything and , although at first suspicious , she later allows sarah to move into their guest room and eventually into their life .
the only question for steven is if the muse is worth all the trouble he 's going through for her .
and that 's a question only time will tell .
"
the muse " is albert brooks ' sixth film as writer / director / actor ( he co - wrote with monica johnson ) and although it 's a good movie
it 's not up to the level of his best works ( " defending your life " and " mother " ) .
the problem lies in the script , and for a movie that relies on its dialogue for its humor , there are n't nearly as many laughs as they are chuckles despite a few good one - liners .
it has a great premise but does n't deliver up to it 's full potential .
but , i like albert brooks in this film
and i think that we can all identify with steven phillips a little bit .
he may whine and complain , but he just wants to support his family and be happy .
and
i like sharon stone in this movie too
; it 's a nice change of pace for her .
and i also enjoyed the cameos featuring the likes of rob reiner , james cameron and martin scorsese .
and although " the muse " does n't have as much to say about hollywood as robert altman 's " the player
" i still left the theater feeling good .
and that 's something i wish i got out of more movies .
