...although “Place (Village)” succeeds in suggesting a sense of melancholy, the method feels overdone. The dollhouses immediately bring to mind images of deserted Disneylands, Lilliputian worlds, and models for gated suburban housing communities. While the art is beautiful, it fails to strike the viewer in a more significant way, resulting in a pointed absence of emotion that stems from the work’s lack of originality. Her reasons for piecing together this exhibit could be simple. Discovering and purchasing each dollhouse, whether on eBay or in person, was clearly a thrill...

...movie’s remains. When cowboys rush through Native American camps, they leave behind a residue of smudged color. A teepee is gradually erased by remnants of cowboys and horses, paralleling the real devastation in the West while also maintaining a self-referential quality, reminding the viewer of the damage caused by reckless adventures in the digital realm. But this deconstruction also brings out more nuanced aspects of the film. Simplifying the image underscores the grandeur of the movements filmed; there is something epic about the way a flowing line of horses stretch across the screen, creating a continuous...

...modern women. He placidly concedes to his partner’s every direction and he is as dull as the video’s gray hues. What’s more, between offers of breakfast in bed and being forced into sexual relations, he finds time to serenade the viewer while playing his invisible piano. Conversely, the lingerie-donning video vixen typifies the average male: she pushes, she shoves, she commands, and she swims through a fish tank. Confused much? Well, fear not. Usher concludes the video by whispering the affirmation, “Stay tuned / For part...

...Express” is a fine exemplar of this class of movies—not for its quality, but for its representativeness. Director Gary Fleder and writer Charles Leavitt rehash, but do not reinvigorate, a set of generic devices that will be familiar to almost any viewer who has taken in a sports film in the last 30 years.
