He swaggers, smokes, guzzles beer, grabs life by the butt and gives it a fat smack. He makes abrupt love to Simon's morbid mother (Maria Porter) and bored sister (Parker Posey). He is, he tells Simon, an artist, the author of a huge, unpublished tome called My Confession; and he encourages Simon to lift himself from lethargy and create his own masterpiece...

...imagine the anxious speculation when Chris Carter's terrific series, which has turned the paranormal and paranoidal into Sunday-night morality plays, becomes a theatrical movie. Will the canonical secrets (about, say, Mulder's lost sister Samantha, purportedly abducted by aliens when she was nine) be explained? Will the show's dense mythology, replayed in the feature film, confound those ignorant of the backstory? Will the film disappoint the X-philes, the most demanding fans around...
