The SF, Horror and Fantasy Film Review: The Brother from Another Planet
. Today Sayles is one of America's foremost independent film-makers with the likes of the quite brilliant Matewan (1987) and the highly acclaimed Passion Fish (1992), (1995), Lone Star (1996), Men with Guns (1997) and Limbo (1999). But the most hilariously bizarre feature of all is David Strathairn and Sayles himself who play the two aliens slavers, who are like epileptic fish out of water with their lumbering, jerky gait and attempts to blend in familiar mannerisms - like ordering two beers on the rocks

In his own office with walls adorned by large game fish, photographs, and a painted symbol of a fish [the flag of the Albacore Club], Yelburton is convinced that the scandalous stories about Mulwray are groundless. In the rear of the estate is a fish pond and fountain. Something shiny in the bottom of the pool attracts Jake's eye, but he is not able to fish out the object before Mrs

. "But until then, you do as I tell you to!" So, who are you going to root for -- cuddly bear Robin Williams or a couple of fascistic cold fish? The deck is as stacked as it can be
The Tech: Dolphins: Visually Stunning
. There are also nifty shots of dolphins swimming around, hunting fish, rapidly having sex (I’m serious), etc
The Deck Ran Red

GRADE: A DREAM WITH THE FISHES (director/writer: Finn Taylor; screenwriters: based on a story by Finn Taylor and Jeffrey Brown; cinematographer: Barry Stone; editor: Rick LeCompte; music: Tito Larriva; cast: David Arquette (Terry), Brad Hunt (Nick), Kathryn Erbe (Liz), Cathy Moriarty (Nick's aunt), Patrick McGaw (Don), J.E. Fish probably have better dreams than this stinker. There is one noteworthy scene of a frightened fisherman from the mainland who has to get his boat repaired, that is a scary reminder of how ominously close Communist China is to Taiwan

| A Fish Called Wanda A Fish Called Wanda - 1988 | 106mins | Comedy | Colour The Production Team Director: . A Fish Called Wanda was a true British film blockbuster, feted as the greatest comedy film to emerge from these shores since The Lavender Hill Mob. A Fish Called Wanda also deserves high praise. Mind you, A Fish Called Wanda is hardly His Girl Friday either! But it's Kline and Palin that really steal the honours. With showered praise no movie could possibly live up to, A Fish Called Wanda is an enjoyable crime caper and that's all, with some legendary set pieces (Cleese stripping to Russian spouting/Palin with the chips up his nose)
Dark Horizons: Ghost Ship Set Visit
. Pursers Area : Another set of stairs goes down into the Purser's Area which is dominated by a large cylindrical vertical fish tank filled with tropical fish (no doubt used for one scare scene later in the film) in the centre and various onboard shops around. Alaskan Bar : A recreation of a convincing looking pub complete with hazy smoke, billiards table, bar with all sorts of liquor (no actual alcohol sadly) topped with little Alaskan touches - a moose head with a cigarette (though sort of looked like a joint to me) in its mouth, carp fish heads with open heads hanging above the bar and wood everywhere. To build all the areas of the ship that we built, there's a purser's area where we have a big vertical fishtank which we've never seen before - and there's some action which takes place around that fishtank, I mean - you'll think your really on a boat. Question : How'd you come up with the vertical fishtank prop ? Answer : That sort of came about that way through a whole heap of stuff, they wanted to put something in the tank like a body
Warner Independent Pictures - Good Night, And Good Luck
. Murrow) David Strathairn attended Williams College before launching a successful acting career and has appeared in many of his Williams College classmate John Sayles' features, including "Matewan, " "Eight Men Out" and "Passion Fish." He has also worked with some of Hollywood's top directors including Mike Nichols' "Silkwood, " Stephen Gyllenhaal's "Losing Isaiah, " Sydney Pollack's "The Firm, " Tim Robbins' "Bob Roberts, " Penny Marshall's "A League of Their Own, " Taylor Hackford's "Dolores Claiborne, " Curtis Hanson's "LA Confidential" and Philip Kaufman's "Twisted" to name just a few.

He also had a recurring role as a love interest opposite Aniston in NBC's "Friends" and then played the priest son of a large Irish Catholic family in the short-lived 1998 NBC drama "Trinity." Next came a leading role in Christopher Coppola's "G-Men from Hell" and a supporting role in "Swordfish."

Roger Ebert - How Stella Got Her Groove Back
. See her in ``Malcolm X, '' ``Passion Fish, '' ``What's Love Got to Do With It'' and ``Strange Days.'' The problem with ``Stella'' is that she has been given a woman who the screenplay says is smart, but whose intelligence doesn't come into play; if it did, Stella's relationship with Winston would be either briefer, or much more complex
ReelViews: Jade
. There are a lot of fish inhabiting the murky, muddy waters of Joe Eszterhas' latest script, and, except for the occasional shark or two, most of them are herrings -- red herrings, to be precise
Salon Arts & Entertainment | Limbo
. In the center of this in-between world is Joe (David Strathairn), a rumpled, easygoing Juneau native whose basketball career ended with an ill-timed injury, and whose fishing career ended with a drunken boating accident that left two friends dead and him guiltily alive. Before long Joe's feeling so good that he's even fishing again. The abrupt plot shift also means that assorted other dramas from the first half, including one about a desperate fisherman who loses his boat and another about a greedy businessman who wants to Disney up the wilderness -- are abandoned back in civilization. (Donna sobs quietly while working out furiously at the gym, her daughter impassively observes herself as she gouges razors into her arms.) Strathairn in particular, a Sayles regular from "The Return of the Secaucus Seven" and "Passion Fish, " is utterly convincing in his heartache
