PROBLEM: "I Stand In The Dark With A Blade In My Hand" ~ Physican Heal Theyself . Esteemed psychiatrist Martin Dysart (Ricard Burton) takes on a case nobody else wants to deal with. Alan Strang (Peter Firth), an eighteen year old working at the local stables blinds four horses with a metal spike in an unpresidented night of unspeakable madness. As Dr. Dysart delves into the causes leading up to the event he soon realizes he is dealing with more than just a confused, emotionally unstable teenager. He has stumbled upon a shocking tale of intense spiritual devotion gone horribly wrong. As the ongoing therapy with Alan reaches its climax Dr. Dysart finally comes face to face with the young mans' inner passion and divine obsession. An encounter which challenges Dysart to finally look into his own soul and confront his personal demons and loss of passion. As though peering into a mirror darkly it eventually becomes a case of "Physican Heal Thyself." Truly one of the darkest, most penetrating journeys into a troubled mind you will ever view. Peter Shaffer's masterful screenplay along with director Sidney Lumet performing at the top of his craft have brought to life a harrowing vision not soon to be forgotten.

SOLUTION: POS

PROBLEM: Great Movie But MUCH Is Fiction..... . I am a math teacher myself so I have always had a special interest in this film. I think it is very well done and it is very inspirational. However, for anyone who wants to know the TRUE story of what happened with Escalante and his students, purchase the book "Escalante: The Best Teacher in America" by Jay Mathews. The film leads you to believe that Escalante took students who didn't know how to multiply and then in the course of one school year made those same students score 5s on the AP Calculus test. This is far from what really happened. Escalante spent YEARS developing a program and he made sure he had proper courses that led to an understanding of Calculus. There is one other noticeable bit of fiction in the film. The movie portrays it as the testing company (ETS) accused the students of cheating simply because the company was racist and they felt the students at Garfield High School couldn't have possibly known the material. The true story is that some answers on the AP tests from Garfield were noticeably similar. About 12 students made the same exact errors on one particular problem, and that is what made ETS suspicious. So once again, a well done film, and while is it "based on a true story", it is far from a true story

SOLUTION: POS

PROBLEM: Oh no...it finally happened. Leslie Nielsen in a bad parody! . I am a big Leslie Nielsen fan. I first saw him in the Naked Gun series, which I thought was awesome, then I saw him again in Wrongfully Accused. I was so enthralled that I acquired Airplane, which seems to be a highly praised movie with him in it. I had thought he could do no wrong, but he really disappointed me here. What is wrong with this movie? EVERYTHING you will see in here are things you have already seen in other Leslie Nielsen comedy movies. There are times that what will happen becomes so obvious that it's painful rather than funny. For example, the x-ray glasses. My God, when that was mentioned, I just felt nauseous. The problem with this movie is that it continues the Naked Gun-variety humor, but it does it rather badly. Most of the humor in this movie is sexual-based and that will eventually get boring. Aside from that, this movie lacks a proper plot. All throughout the movie, it doesn't seem like Dick Steele (Nielsen) did anything, but move from one area to another in preparation for a gag. Nielsen's other movies had bad plots too, but at least they were coherent. I am sorry (mostly to myself for seeing this), but this was just a bad movie. Perhaps the director should go watch the entire Naked Gun series to see how it is done

NEG
