Gus Van Sant

Review of the 2008 film "Milk"

Gus Van Sant understands that this film is not about a guy who few can relate to, but rather a leader who represents the often gullible and clueless majority.

Milk is not a movie about how Harvey Milk died. It is a movie about how he lived, and how it is a life worthy of being celebrated. His courage did so much for people, and it is needed now as history is repeating itself with Proposition 8.

The career of Gus Van Sant

This is a review of Gus Van Sant's film Elephant. We see the day of a student through the student's eyes. He explores some of the issues of today's students through this film.

[The movie] isn't the sort of sad that makes you want to cry, it's something akin to seeing a trainwreck. You can't stop staring, secretly wondering if you'll catch a glimpse of blood in some detatched, voyeuristic dread and longing.

The press release for Gus Van Sant's new film �Last Days' promises a 'fictional meditation on the inner turmoil that engulfs a brilliant but troubled musician'. If meditation involves emptying your head of all thoughts then they've hit the spot.

Last Days is one of the year's best films, and is highly recommended to viewers willing to experience this true work of art. It rejects the baggage of conventional narrative to offer an example of uncompromised artistic vision.

Gus Van Sant's ode to morbid romance is buoyed by another impressive performance by Mia Wasikowska, Jane F. Carlson writes.

Hilary Swank seems to win an Oscar every five years, and her new role as the legendary Amelia Earhart seemed like a chance to keep that going. But almost all "Amelia" reviews slam the film for being pat, boring, and the worst kind of Oscar bait.
