The sunny streets of Brooklyn, just after World War II. A young would-be writer named Stingo (Peter MacNicol) shares a boarding house with beautiful Polish immigrant Sophie (Meryl Streep) and her tempestuous lover, Nathan (Kevin Kline); their friendship changes his life. This adaptation of the bestselling novel by William Styron is faithful to the point of being reverential, which is not always the right way to make a film come to life. But director Alan J. Pakula (All the President's Men) provides a steady, intelligent path into the harrowing story of Sophie, whose flashback memories of the horrors of a Nazi concentration camp form the backbone of the movie. Streep's exceptional performance--flawless Polish accent and all--won her an Oscar, and effectively raised the standard for American actresses of her generation. No less impressive is Kevin Kline, in his movie debut, capturing the mercurial moods of the dangerously attractive Nathan. The two worlds of Sophie's Choice, nostalgic Brooklyn and monstrous Europe, are beautifully captured by the gifted cinematographer Néstor Almendros, whose work was Oscar-nominated but didn't win. It should have. --Robert Horton, Amazon.com

When Candy abungling cop and Levy an inept lawyer lose their jobs they wind up together at the Guard Dog Security Company. After thorough training in the use of firearms (for two hours) they're raring to go. But even as security guards they can't cut it and rip-offs take place right under their noses.

When the dust finally settles Candy and Levy save the day as the hilarious rent-a-cop duowho are never more funny than when they're Armed and Dangerous.
Featuring one of John Candy's earliest leading roles, Going Berserk is a laugh-out-loud comedy part slapstick, part sharp wit that'll have you howling from the first scene till the credits roll. John Bourgignon couldn't be happier. In a few weeks, the tubby limousine driver played by Emmy award-winner John Candy (Planes, Trains and Automobiles) will walk down the aisle with Nancy Reese, a bombshell blonde with ties to big money. But Nancy's father, a US congressman and presidential hopeful, can't stand the idea of his daughter getting hitched up to a lowly chauffer. While trying to impress his father-in-law to be (Pat Hingle, of Splendor in the Grass and Norma Rae), happy-go-lucky John finds himself mixed up with the wrong crowd. As his wedding day looms ever closer, the bumbling, lovable driver is confronted with blackmail, brainwash, a murder plot, a jailbreak, a religious cult of aerobics instructors the list goes on. With a little (not-so-helpful) assistance from his sleazy, film-director friend (Eugene Levy, National Lampoon's Vacation) and limo-driving sidekick (Joe Flaherty, Stripes, Happy Gilmore), John stumbles his way towards the altar, with plenty of side-splitting laughs to be had along the way.

February, 1983. Detectives are called to a residential address in the London suburbs following reports that the drains have been clogged by human remains. One of the property's residents, Dennis Nilsen a mild-mannered and unassuming civil servant is brought in for questioning, leading to the discovery of one of the most shocking and disturbing cases of serial murder ever to rock Britain. Offering a grim and gritty retelling of the story of Des Nilsen, often dubbed the British Jeffery Dahmer, 1989's Cold Light of Day stars Bob Flag (the face of Big Brother in Michael Radford's 1984) as Nilsen-cipher Jorden March, delivering one of the most chilling and credible portrayals of a serial killer ever committed to screen. From writer-director Fhiona-Louise, Cold Light of Day which picked up the UCCA Venticittà Award at the 1990 Venice International Film Festival is a hugely underseen and underrated British effort that can stand proudly alongside the likes of Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer as one of the most unflinching true-crime films of all time.
