...credit for Phoenix's performance has to go to Mangold, who has always been good at finding the bleak melodrama in taciturn souls: Pruitt Taylor Vince's short-order cook in Heavy, Sly Stallone's tired sheriff in Cop Land. If Mangold's new movie has a problem, it's that he and co-screenwriter Gill Dennis sometimes walk the lines of the inspirational biography too rigorously.

And then, because of her desire to ascend from her newfound poverty, Julie agreed to help her scam Newport! This is the stuff “The OC” should be about—schemes and stalkers. I mean, after...
...Yegor Tremens Rodent (Arlo D. Hill ’08), a government functionary, discuss the future of Russia and the world. The scene shifts to heaven, where the little girl (Claire Dickson) treated by B meets two old party leaders who died in the first part. No credit for guessing what they discuss...
