Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert reviews "Blink" (A Smart and Intelligent Suspense Thriller about a Blind Women who now has new distorted eyesight and becomes a witness to a killer. Directed By: Michael Apted. Starring: Madeline Stowe and Aidan Quinn (in their second collaboration since "Stakeout"); "Naked"; "I'll Do Anything" (Writer/Director, James L. Brooks most underrated controversial comedy/drama that started out as a musical. I actually found the Workprint of the Original Cut online) But was re-edited and re-shot. Still a great film about a struggling actor trying to find work who wounds up dealing with his precocious daughter. Starring: Nick Nolte, Albert Brooks, Julie Kavner, Joely Richardson, Whitney Wright and Tracey Ullman.); "The Thing Called Love" (Paramount released it earlier in limited several markets on August 27, 1993 and made only $1 million at the box office. Then, it was release again in 1994 in some cities after the following death of actor, River Phoenix before reaching Home Video later in March. Director, Peter Bogdanovich was not pleased with the results. A story about aspiring Country Music singer/Songwriter from Nashville hoping to stand up for her dreams. Starring: Samantha Mathis, River Phoenix, Dermot Mulroney and Sandra Bullock. It was a good movie but could have been better.) and "Blue" (The beginning of the "Three Colors" Trilogy and a Beautiful Psychological Drama to watch about a young widower distancing herself from the past, the mysterious human connections around her and having her life on track. Directed By: Krzysztof Kieślowski. Starring: Juliette Binoche.)

Video Pick of The Week: Ebert's pick is "Kalifornia" (1993) (Luckily, is on my own list and I really love it! Very intense thriller. Directed By Dominic Sena. Starring: David Duchovny from "The X-Files", Brad Pitt, Juliette Lewis and Michelle Forbes.) And a recap of Today's program.

Recorded on KATU ABC 2 in Portland, Oregon with Commercials intact.
