| The last time he directed a screen adaptation of a best-selling book -
Robert James Waller's "The Bridges of Madison County" - Clint Eastwood was
working with a slender piece of fiction that required extensive reworking
and fleshing-out. With John...more |

| What's that old adage again? Ah yes! "The movie is never as good as the
book." Truer words were never recalled as fiercely as they are for
*Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil*. Director Clint Eastwood was
lucky enough to get ahold of a novel that...more |

| Although the movie previews were the first time I'd heard of MIDNIGHT IN THE
GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL, it seems important to mention that it is derived from
John Berendt's best-selling, non-fiction book. Although rumors have led me to
believe it is a...more |

| Clint Eastwood, in his ripe old age, is cashing one talent in
for another. MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL is an
Eastwood-directed film Clint isn't even in, and it's damn good.

| Somewhere between this year's "Absolute Power" and his latest film,
"Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil," somewhere between good and evil
itself, director Clint Eastwood forgot how to make a movie. more |

| There's something about the American South that has always captured the
imagination of the rest of the country. Perhaps it's the easy-going tranquil
lifestyle, almost-courtly manners and abundance of charming eccentrics that
are so appealing. Or maybe...more |

| In its running time of 153 minutes, I'm sure there is a fairly decent
movie contained within 'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil'. The
problem is that it has so many plodding scenes of irrelevancy that it makes
it difficult to appreciate the...more |

| MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL's ad campaign is magnificent,
in my opinion. I first heard about this film upon seeing a magazing ad
for it; not from previews, not from word of mouth. Without seeing any
of the trailers, I immediately wanted to...more |

| Do not let the title fool you. It could lead you to believe this
was going to be one of the surreal films with corpses rising out of
