David Leland David Leland's latest film, The Land Girls, is rife with such contradictions: genteel, upstanding young women looking for casual sex, enduring and overcoming life's hardships on their own, and having the time of their lives while the bombs of World War II crack the night open mere miles away. Leland confides he wasn't only combatting traditional gender roles with the film but also some sturdy mythology. Still, Leland is most satisified with having told a story, with all its contradictions and historical ugliness. millimeter.com /mag/video_david_leland/index.html   (668 words)

The Leland Report - Leelanau County Michigan David's legacy is in the lives he touched, those of his family and those of us who he reached out to in all those special Leland ways over the many years. I've always felt that David was our conscience at the Country Club, the Yacht Club, and with events such as the village celebrations on July 4th. I didn't agree with David on every issue he raised, but he made you think about what you felt and caused one to form an opinion as to what was appropriate. www.lelandreport.com /index.asp?indate=7/6/2002   (1468 words)

Film & TV: Collective Harm (Newcity Chicago . 06-29-98) If you didn't know the work of David Leland, co-writer of "Mona Lisa" and writer-director of "Wish You Were Here," the goings-on of "The Land Girls" might sound like the soup of third-rate cable television, a forlorn mix of sentiment and documentary. Leland, an actor and playwright as well as writer-director, is reflective about the smallest details of behavior. Much of the story's atmosphere is drawn from Leland's upbringing in an English village, but also from a great deal of research with his production designer. weeklywire.com /ww/06-29-98/chicago_filmfeat.html   (783 words)

Amazon.ca: DVD: Wish You Were Here [IMPORT]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18) Director David Leland's valentine to sexual candor is most notable for introducing the bright, unaffected young actress Emily Lloyd. The sex scenes are mostly rendered in objective long shot, as it becomes obvious that the film is as much about the sexual hangups of men as it is about the relative "promiscuity" of a teenage girl. David Leland's 1987 comedy-drama about a headstrong 16-year-old girl's "coming of age" in post WW 2 England only played the arthouses upon on its initial run, so remains largely unknown to U.S. audiences. www.amazon.ca /exec/obidos/ASIN/B0001AW0VQ   (557 words)

The Land Girls   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18) The Land Girls is David Leland's beautiful valentine to the women of World War II who took to the fields when all the farmhands were off fighting for their country. Leland positions the heat of battle as a glow on the horizon in order to give full attention to his characters' lives as they unfold amidst the glorious landscape. Just as the actual Land Girl program brought out the best in young women, Leland is at his finest in letting the Land Girls' story be told as it should be: exquisitely and with unfettered honesty. www.filmscouts.com /scripts/film.cfm?Film=lan-gir   (271 words)

David Leland Later an adult attorney in New York's Hell's Kitchen, Murdock (Ben Affleck) uses his remaining, superenhanced senses to battle crime as Daredevil, the masked and vengeful "man without fear," pitted against dominant criminal Kingpin (Michael Clarke Duncan) and the psychotic Bullseye (Colin Farrell), who can turn almost anything into a deadly projectile. Sean Penn announced his retirement from acting, then wrote and directed this emotionally raw, somewhat sprawling film, suggested by Bruce Springsteen's song "Highway Patrolman." David Morse is the title character, an upstanding citizen and peace officer who tries to help his troubled--and troublesome--brother (Viggo Mortensen), recently returned from Vietnam. The brother and his girlfriend (Patricia Arquette) have bad news written all over them--but Morse does what he can to be protector, to no avail. www.dvdvan.com /find/Director/DVD/David%20Leland/page-1.html   (854 words)
