...interviewed for the job in South Carolina last Friday, and was offered the position on Saturday before accepting yesterday. “These are the top of the tops. I’m just happy I got an opportunity to be with them.” Football captain Carl D.

...style that predominates in current high-art festival films - films that rarely get much exposure in U.S. movie houses - is minimalist. Springing from the works of great directors like Carl-Theodor Dreyer and Robert Bresson, minimalism follows certain rules, as restrictive as Mennonite edicts. Pare down movie technique to its essentials; show characters behaving, however mutely, rather than acting; make viewers work for their epiphanies.

...Everybody in Yes Man, including Carrey in his depressive phase, is pretty darned perky - a mood that applies to no one in Seven Pounds. And whereas Carl is using his personal epiphany to make himself happy, Ben Thomas does good only for others; he's paying it forward, not inward. A child undergoing cancer treatment, a mother whose boyfriend abuses her, a blind pianist (Woody Harrelson), a young woman suffering from congenital heart failure (Rosario Dawson) - each of these, and three others, he showers with rejuvenating gifts. His motive is the movie's secret...
