" Well this cold weather could mean one thing it's a perfect time to stay indoors and see a movie and -- daily film critic and host of for the Yankees dot com is here this morning to talk about some of the new movies. And before we talk about that did the new ones. Let's talk for a moment about slum dog millionaire it seems to getting all the attention are a lot of the attention in the sag awards Golden Globes Oscar nominations. I haven't seen it over the weekend I'm more -- what's your take was in whether you think this is gonna win some big oscars."

" He'll do I think it's gonna win some oscars and I'm actually a little surprises getting the kind of attention to it is because it's a smaller phone and is Danny boy released an English director he's making a film in India it's almost a it's it's a nontraditional. Hollywood film. But the fact of the matter is it's incredibly well done it's got a compelling story a story that we all feel very comfortable with so hot I believe some dog millionaire is this year's little miss sunshine toward Baghdad little film that."

" Really could. You know and if you've never been inside Indian call center you'll get your chance -- he's like dog -- absolutely it's -- it's enlightening that way it is it is all right the movies we're here to talk about this week first of all its -- this is I guess more of a kiddie movie kind of like the Narnia movies somewhat."

" Yep yeah it's it's based on -- Cornelia funds' books of the same name and two more are being played Brendan -- plays a guy who when he reads a book. Like a classic. You know you know what survives. The characters come to -- and fall into this world. He has a daughter who has an English accent and never quite know why but it is an. -- got Helen Mary and public -- public and you're very excellent actor he was opposite Russell Crowe and the one about the guy you'd -- images mathematician a component of a beautiful mind beautiful mind yet so he's and he's a very good actors always good to watch. Excellent acting strictly in softly he didn't wings of a dove was very good with intimate intimate films this is a little bit too big forms relax a little focus. Kids are gonna like get adults will be okay with that. But it doesn't have that kind of real depth and focusing -- success now you often wonder about his apparent in movies like this at what age would this be movie be appropriate -- you think -- twelve I would think maybe 89 again depending on paper -- it above I think depending on the do you maturity advocating you know that better than any anybody else all right. Also we've got windy and Lucy this one's made by the way the filmmaker that's right Kelly reichardt. I think she's from Rhode Island. Very small films now this is a very spare film its stars Michelle Williams who's been reunited some great films which is a very courageous -- Are actors she's made herself very plain as she plays a young woman. Who is going from midwest to Alaska to work in the fisheries to make some money she's very very -- figures -- up -- adult loosen up. It breaks down somewhere as a story for trying to deal with the fact she gets picked up for shoplifting her dog gets lost there are some kindness is given to about strangers. People are reading a lot into this film because it -- when you have a spare pump he would -- read into what they're reading is that this is America. Right now. This is America going into recession because it is someone who's struggling financially and there are some kindness his help. Being helped up restore -- by people she doesn't now so -- we going to see this movie."

" Very few theaters I think that the Kendall square and you're not gonna see much more beyond that it's very small. And you probably picking up on dvd or Netflix and a couple of months and are right now if you like werewolves we have the and ruled the rise of the life can sign hangs a right. I know I opened -- will movers are electing a good slashing moves. I get get get this plot right along like that for equal to the underground serious we just Kate back and so does not and they've got some kind of looks like you're playing arm her -- grandmother. Anyway. Is it vampires living a big castle a bunch of and they are via using humans as sacrifices and to protect them and they take tribute from should be a big hit at and then there are the wolves out there who they're trying to -- green these wear wolves to protect them and of course they have to have a revolution because likens are actually slaves and instantly without. About that god is leading the revolution who's half man half where we'll. Is Michael Sheen to god please David Frost and frost Nixon who played you know -- me any all buff and -- even recognize him. But you wouldn't that be a pretty opposite role it has its if it's only for those people -- love and appreciate the underground series. And I had a hard time following the plot. While. So I this is like I said this movie idea received but that it's bound to be -- hit. There's somebody there -- plenty of people out there I would guess we're gonna go see -- in the interest of vampires especially the books now it was the I think the vampires are not very smart and has announced that -- up Pampers was be cool and sexy and brilliant and they've lived a long time for the really really smart. These guys that they're kind of dumb and in the werewolves are actually smarter the smarter werewolves and dumb vampires all right -- daily of the frugal Yankee dot com it's always a pleasure thanks for being here my pleasure as well."
