Alice
Through the Looking Glass (2004)
This version
of the classic Lewis Carroll tale stars Kate Beckinsale as
Alice. Though Beckinsale plays a more mature Alice, she
maintains the same childlike innocence that characterized
Carroll's precocious child protagonist. Beckinsale's
understated performance gives the film a subtlety lacking
from previous film adaptations. Strong performances by
Beckinsale and Ian Holm make the film as interesting to
adults as it is to children.

The
Last Days of Disco (1998)
Comedy
and Romance
The third in Whit Stillman's excellent trio of talkative
yet thought-provoking odes to days gone by. This installment
is set in the Manhattan of the early 80's (chronologically
between "Metropolitan" and "Barcelona")
as the hedonistic disco era is on the wane and the
money-grubbing self-absorbed era of junk bonds and MTV is on
the rise. Two conservative recent Hampshire College
graduates slave away as editorial assistants by day and
vampy party-goers by night. Witty thoughtful banter moves
this film along without the need for an oppressive disco
soundtrack or gratuitous drug usage that seem to permeate
films of the timeframe.

Beckinsale do wonders for this breezy entry.

Comfort Farm (1996)
Comedy

Jane
Austen's Emma (1996)

Haunted
(1995)
When a
boarder at the Mariell manor reportedly sees ghosts,
Professor David Ash (Aidan Quinn) makes a house call to
investigate. As he attempts to rationalize the possibility
of ghosts, he falls for the alluring Christina Mariell (Kate
Beckinsale) and soon finds himself spotting specters as
well.
Based on the novel by James Herbert, HAUNTED is director
Lewis Gilbert's first endeavor into horror, and he succeeds
spectacularly. The film features his quick-paced style of
action, evinced in his James Bond films, THE SPY WHO LOVED
ME, MOONRAKER, and YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE, but is also
reminiscent of his noir-like films, CAST A DARK SHADOW and
TOUGH GUY. A drastic departure from his previous film,
1991’s light, feel-good STEPPING OUT, HAUNTED is a modern
take on an old-fashioned macabre tale and an essential film
for any horror fan.

the killer.

Much
Ado About Nothing (1993)
Comedy
When gallant Don Pedro (Denzel Washington), his
nefarious brother Don John (Keanu Reeves), and close
confidantes Claudio (Robert Sean Leonard) and Benedick
(Kenneth Branagh) ride thunderously into the Sicilian
village of Messina, romance, gaiety, and suspicion abound.
The men have returned safely from a war, and soon everyone
in the sun-drenched villa is abuzz with thoughts of love.
Claudio, enamored of the purity of the nubile Hero (Kate
Beckinsale), entreats Don Pedro to woo the maiden on his
behalf that evening at a masked ball. Once he's managed the
successful betrothal of Hero to Claudio, Don Pedro has
another plot in mind: he plans to trick Hero's bantering
cousin Beatrice (Emma Thompson) and sworn bachelor Benedick
into acknowledging they've fallen in love. Meanwhile, the
villainous Don John, driven by contempt for his compatriots,
has hatched a plot of his own: to fool Claudio and Don Pedro
into believing Hero is unchaste. The plot works perfectly:
sensitive but volatile Claudio denounces her publicly on
their wedding day. All seems lost, and soon the attempts to
set things right include a formal duel, a scheming friar, a
mock memorial and a gaggle of bumbling constables. With its
excellent cast and beautiful Tuscan backdrop, director
Kenneth Branagh's film is a light-hearted adaptation of yet
another of Shakespeare's great plays.
