American Psycho


AMERICAN PSYCHO (Satire, Strong Violence, New York City, Psycho, Adaptation)

PLOT: Patrick Bateman works on Wall Street by day and fills his nights with murderous actions impossible to fathom. Christian Bale plays this soul-less, modern monster whose zealous materialism and piercing envy fuels his homicidal activities. The movie is based on the novel by Bret Easton Ellis (The Rules of Attraction, Less Than Zero). AUTHOR: Bret Easton Ellis


How the Grinch Stole Christmas


HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS (Holiday, Christmas Spirit, Children's, Adaptation)

PLOT: Dr. Seuss' classic 1957 book and 1966 animated TV special come to the big screen. Jim Carrey is the bitter, green Grinch who contrives to steal Christmas from the devoutly happy Whos. When the Grinch slithers down to Whoville on Christmas Eve, an unexpected encounter with little Cindy Lou Who teaches him that the Christmas spirit is more than presents, decorations, and roast beast. AUTHOR: Dr. Seuss


Chocolat


CHOCOLAT (Romance, France, Small Town, 1950s, Chocolate, Adaptation)

PLOT: Chocolat tells the story of Vianne (Juliette Binoche), a single mother who moves to a small French town in the '50s with her 6-year-old daughter, Anouk. She opens a chocolate shop, which angers the mayor (Alfred Molina) by staying open on Sundays. The town begins to grow on Vianne, who has never been able to stay in one place for very long. Also starring Johnny Depp as Vianne's love interest. AUTHOR: Joanne Harris


My Dog Skip


MY DOG SKIP (Family, Dog, 1940s, Friendship, Adaptation)

PLOT: A shy boy played by Frankie Muniz is unable to make friends in Yazoo City, Mississippi in 1942, until his parents give him a terrier puppy for his ninth birthday. The dog, which he names Skip, becomes well known and loved throughout the community and enriches the life of the boy. AUTHOR: Willie Morris


High Fidelity


HIGH FIDELITY (Romantic Comedy, Music, Relationships, Love, Adaptation)

PLOT: High Fidelity tells the story of Rob (John Cusack), a record store owner and compulsive list maker, who recounts his top five breakups, including the one in progress. Rob's relationship with the geeky guys who help run the store, Dick (Todd Louiso) and Barry (Jack Black), is hilarious and juvenile. Based on the book by Nick Hornby, the film translates well with Cusack delivering a series of genuine, talk-to-the-camera, Ferris Bueller-style monologues. AUTHOR: Nick Hornby
