One of the country's most bizarre criminal cases took another twisted turn on Friday when a Florida judge threw out John Goodman's DUI manslaughter conviction for the death of Scott Wilson.
John Goodman is coming back to TV -- or at least his voice his. The Huffington Post has exclusively learned that the Emmy- and Golden Globe-winning ac...
A Florida court revoked a polo tycoon's adoption of his girlfriend, a scheme that aimed to funnel her millions of dollars as he battled lawsuits that ...
I love St. Patrick's Day. It's so inclusive. By that I mean that though it's a bona fide religious holiday, you don't need to be particularly pious to enjoy it. Wishing everyone a safe and (reasonably) responsible holiday, I present my own candidates for the top drinking movies of all time.
Talk about A-list. Matt Damon, George Clooney, John Goodman and Bill Murray looked like the picture of class as they strolled down the street in Be...
"Living a lie," seems a tad too dramatic of a way of admitting that I had never seen The Big Lebowski. I mean, I never technically lied to anyone about this. No one has ever asked me if I've seen The Big Lebowski because, at this point, everyone just assumes that I have seen The Big Lebowski.
Forget Harvey Weinstein (after all, Jennifer Lawrence did); the real kingmaker at the Academy Awards is John Goodman. The 60-year-old actor has become a regular at the Oscars over the last two years, this despite not being nominated himself. Goodman was a co-star in "The Artist," which won Best Picture last year, and "Argo," which won Best Picture this year. As Blackbook's Tyler Coates wrote earlier this week, Goodman is "the biggest ticket to getting an Oscar for Best Picture." That's good news for the five films Goodman is scheduled to appear in this year. Which John Goodman movie will win Best Picture in 2014?
It's become a staple of late night television for celebrities to have to face footage of themselves from the archives that they either forgot existed,...
"Inside Llewyn Davis" is set for release in December of this year, but most film fans want the film to come out right now. The film's new red-band tra...
Once you're done unwrapping the gifts and singing the carols and observing whatever expressions of faith you feel are appropriate for the time (if any), you may want to reinforce the communal feeling with a visit to the cinema for something the whole family can enjoy.
From the best political bits on late night to a few unintentionally hilarious moments from the politicians themselves, 2012 was a great year to laugh at politics in America.
It's strange to think that we almost live in the future. At least, the future that director Robert Zemeckis and producer Bob Gale envisioned in "Back ...
New Orleans-based incendii blows stuff up in New Orleans. It used to be that working in the movie business meant living in Hollywood and accepting th...
On the face of it, Flight is your standard redemption story. Taking you aboard a plane falling apart in heavy winds, Flight is not what it seems. The film is about character, extending beyond the lead to nuanced supporting roles.
Professors Kevin Taylor Anderson and Salman Hameed go head-to-head in their discussion over Ben Affleck's critical feature, "Argo" and talk about its ...
Denzel Washington's portrayal is compelling and realistic. Is there a "lifelong limit of lies"? There's no way to know until you reach it.
Grass. Booze. Cocaine. Veteran pilot Whip Whitaker (Denzel Washington) hits the drug-abuse trifecta. And that's just hours before he straps himself into the cockpit of a 50-ton jet, with 96 passengers and six flight crew members aboard.
It is thrilling to anticipate the fate of Whip Whitaker -- who could face serious jail time for drinking, flying, crashing and killing six people even though he saved some ninety others. You will find yourself on the edge of your seat in Flight's final suspenseful courtroom scene.
Today, assuming your local movie theater has electrical power, you have the opportunity to see a movie called Flight. Denzel Washington (Virtuosity)...
A CIA specialist comes up with a plan to rescue hostages from Iran by disguising them as a Canadian film crew.
The pieces all fit handsomely in Argo and Affleck is a natural director -- the only section that feels like an outlier is Hollywood.
Flight is the story of a flawed man enabled by the fact that he rarely loses control. That a hotel mini-bar can be scarier than a plane flailing in midair is a measure of this classic cautionary tale, one of the best pictures as award season approaches.
With an impressive 91 percent fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes, Argo has been receiving some Oscar buzz, with some critics claiming it's one of the year's best films.
On Friday, Argo, one of the most critically acclaimed movies of the year -- and a bona fide Oscar contender -- will get released into a movie theate...
It's a little early to be proclaiming Ben Affleck's Argo the best movie of the year -- but one of the best? No question.
