	'Angus'
		Angus" is a pitiful little film about a fat teenager's pathetic attempt to fit in with his thinner, more popular peers.
		Though Angus seems to gain some self-esteem from reminding Grandpa to take his pills, their relationship is not only emotionally arid but worthless in terms of plot.
		Angus and Troy are frequently victimized by the popular kids under the leadership of golden-haired Rick (James Van Der Beek), the class president and the football team's quarterback.

	BBC - Films - review - Smoke
		During the course of the film, Rashid tracks down his real father, Auggie's ex-girlfriend arrives to borrow money to help the daughter she claims is his, and a gang of violent armed robbers hassle Paul to retrieve the cash they say Rashid stole from them.
		This photographic element of the film, discussed near the beginning, returns in the final scene, when Auggie relates his christmas story to Paul.
		Like the film itself, Auggie's story is a charming and whimsical tale about the importance of friendship, family bonds, racial harmony, and going out of your way to help others.

	FILM REVIEW -- `Angus' -- We Feel His Pain / Fat-kid story sweet but nothing new
		The title character, Angus Bethune, is played charmingly and poignantly by screen newcomer Charlie Talbert, a teenager who's got just the right amount of baby fat on his husky body, and whose soft voice exudes innocence and a gentle heart waiting to be trampled on.
		Angus' only pal is a big-eared, freckle-faced kid named Troy (Chris Owen), who serves as his spirited personal adviser and listening post.
		And Angus loves the old goat -- he knows that his grandfather, for all his bluster and swagger, is listening to his heart.

	Angus - Movie Review
		While not really a "kids' movie," Angus is a workmanlike coming-of-age film, full of slapstick and insult trading among the youthful cast and their parents.
		Angus is played by newcomer Charlie Talbert (who was discovered in a Wendy's restaurant).
		The predictability of Angus is mind-numbing, but thankfully it's pretty funny along the way, especially Scott's crusty grandfather (note that the humor may not be totally suitable for children).

	...Starring Angus Macfadyen Articles 'The Scot Pack' Excerpt
		Playing Robert the Bruce, in a film that went on to win the Oscar for Best Picture of 1995, was a phenomenal break for an actor who had never made a film before and who was approaching his thirty-first birthday when the film went into production at the foot of Ben Nevis in June 1994.
		It was an intriguing historical siding, but the film botched it by trying to shape it as a romance, in which Macfadyen was a German pilot pursuing the same girl as the American pilot he had shot down.
		When he turned up for filming he had actually put on another five, and tight-fitting costumes had to be redesigned.

	deseretnews.com - Movie review: Angus \| Deseret Morning News Web edition
		Meanwhile, Angus lives with — and gets advice from — his truck-driver mother (Kathy Bates) and his 73-year-old retired grandfather (George C. Scott), who is about to marry a much-younger woman and is positively giddy about it.
		Angus also gets advice from his geeky best friend (Chris Owen), especially when Angus, via a practical joke, finds himself king to Melissa's queen at the upcoming fall dance.
		The film does fall down a bit in places — such as when it makes fun of the physical appearance of a weird science teacher late in the film, which seems to run counter to everything the film is striving to say.

		Angus is the outsider in his high school freshman class.
		Angus is a close cousin to ``Rudy,'' and even ``Rocky,'' unlikely guys who come from behind to go the distance.
		Kathy Bates, who is perfectly cast as Angus' tough mom, has the film's best speech when she points out that her son shows great bravery by ``going back to that school, day after day.'' Bates (Oscar winner for ``Misery'') is one of three Academy Award winners in the supporting cast.

		"Angus" delivers a rousing "up yours!" to all the snotty high school golden boys, the quarterbacks who are surrounded by packs of fawning friends.
		Angus dreams forlornly about the beautiful Melissa, whom he has been in love with since grade school, but she's going steady with Rick Sanford (James Van Der Beek), whom Angus has hated since grade school.
		Both Angus and Rick are on the football team, but the way it works is, when Angus makes a brilliant tackle and forces a fumble, Rick grabs the ball, makes the touchdown and is carried off the field on his teammates' shoulders.

		Though the films were radically different from each other; one a '30s drama set in New York, the other a Shakespeare adaptation filmed in Rome with 'Lion King' musical stage director Julie Taymor; both featured directors who had written their own scripts.
		But Angus Macfadyen is just an actor who happens also to be a Scot, which is odd, given that he made his name in 'Braveheart', Mel Gibson's take on William Wallace, beloved by both the SNP and right-wing militias in the United States.
		Angus Macfadyen was the last actor to audition for the role of Orson Welles in 'Cradle Will Rock', Tim Robbins's quasi-comedy about the Depression, censorship and a drama troupe.

	Review: Angus
		Angus' nemesis is quarterback and class president Rick Sanford (James Van Der Beek), a nasty- minded individual who will go to any lengths to embarrass and degrade the science whiz.
		Angus is never subtle, but for the first seventy-five minutes, it gets the point across with style, humor, and an occasional bittersweet moment.
		Angus' dilemma is that he wants to be normal, but can't.

	The Rules of Attraction - Video Interviews with Avary and Van Der Beek
		The film has been hailed by Daily Variety, Cahiers du Cinema, and the Village Voice as one of the finest debut films of the last twenty years.
		His second film is a bold and visually striking adaptation of Bret Easton-Ellis’ novel, “The Rules of Attraction.” The film, a curious love triangle, polarized critics in the states with its daring non-linear narrative and strong stylistic flourishes.
		Van Der Beek’s first on-screen performance came with a role in the 1995 film Angus, and he was featured in I Love You.

	Angus Film Review - Time Out Film
		Angus (Talbert) has it so bad he's applying to move school, but there's a more pressing problem when Rick rigs the election for the Winter Ball King and Queen, sending the unballetic Angus out to an embarrassingly public dance with the one and only Melissa Lefevre (Richards).
		Partly that's because the film adopts such an unassuming profile: there's little preachiness or sentimentalism.
		If you're a tubby adolescent with girl trouble or a self-esteem problem, and in need of some sensible and reassuring escapism, this may be the one for you.

		The film was very successful and would eventually spawn three surprisingly good sequels.
		Phantasm is the kind of film that could fall apart at the seams if the actors are incompetent and don't take their roles seriously.
		Phantasm fans that have only seen the film on VHS will no doubt rejoice about the nice clear transfer, but fans looking for a leaps and bounds improvement over the LDs may be disappointed.

	The Roswell Film Airs All Over The World
		Pathologists, camera and film ex- perts, government officials and Hollywood's top special effects artists give their expert takes on the film as it is revealed.
		The technical qualities of the film itself are analyzed, followed by an examination of the alien, whose humanoid features would require tremendous skill to create.
		The film looks like a hoax - in fact, it strikes me as something taken by a CCD video camera, not a film camera - the flares and contrast spikes look phoney - like something you put on later by fiddling the saturation knob on a video mastering system.
