New (and Not So New) Stuff

It's been a very long time since my last set of linkthroughs, so without (too much) further ado, here's a set of links to my work from the last... however long it's been since my previous post. I got to tackle an awards contender and reconsider a pair of classics for Little White Lies and to take on a variety of films of disparate quality for a variety of other publications.

The Earrings of Madame De... (Little White Lies)
Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? (Little White Lies)
A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III (Slant)
Broken City (Slant)
The Taste of Money (Slant)
Girls Against Boys (Slant)
My Best Enemy (Slant)
