Happy New Year! Curiously, now that we're in 2009, our cinematic adventures begin with a look back at the past, as Frank Miller's adaptation of classic Will Eisner tale
The Spirit comes to a screen near you. A different kind of hero takes the stage in
Che: Part One, Steven Soderbergh's biopic of the iconic revolutionary (and you can read what Soderbergh said about the film at a recent press conference,
here), and there's a look at what happens when it all goes wrong in re-released classic
Bring Me The Head Of Alfredo Garcia. Meanwhile, Ralph Fiennes finds his former lover on trial for war crimes in
The Reader, and a group of young women celebrate the power of friendship in The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Pants 2.
