Affliction addiction
No comic exchange has got bigger laughs and has been so often recited in recent years than Robert Downey Jr's ridiculously dedicated, Russell Crowe-inspired method actor Kirk Lazarus advising Tugg Speedman (Ben Stiller) how to win Hollywood's ultimate accolade in the Oscar-nominated comic smash Tropic Thunder.

Movie Review: True Grit
The western is the least loquacious of the traditional Hollywood genres. The heroes are as stony-faced as the hard, unforgiving terrain in which they live and die (compare the ten-gallon hat crowd with the motormouths of screwball comedies, musicals and gangster pictures).

Movie Review: The Fighter
Former Golden Gloves champ Rai Fazio must be kicking himself - or, more precisely, landing a perfectly executed uppercut on his own chin followed by a series of withering blows to the kidney region. After all, the film that Two Fists, One Heart should have been, The Fighter, is heading towards the Oscars while Fazio's ill-conceived attempt to put his life on film was KO'd at the box office.
