 8 1/2 Women - Movie Review
The compulsive listmaking and mathematical precision of Greenaway’s earlier films is present and intact, but the center of 8 ½ Women is ultimately hollow and painfully obvious.
His very concept reduces women to childish fantasies such as the sexually repressed nun (Toni Collette), the pregnant woman (Natacha Amal), the nubile bombshell (Polly Walker), the prudish accountant who wears thick glasses (Vivian Wu, from The Pillow Book) and the woman who adores her pet horse and pig (Amanda Plummer).
If the women are reduced to mere allegorical formulas, the two men at the center of the movie are mere ciphers.

 Metroactive Movies | '8 1/2 Women'
Amanda Plummer plays Beryl with fl lipstick and a Transylvanian accent; this eccentric actress is at her most outré since she showed up as a fishhook-studded serial killer in Butterfly Kiss.
Also on the estate as furniture girls are the aspiring kabuki artist Mio (Kirina Mano), an apprentice nun named Griselda (Toni Collette) and Palmira (Polly Walker), a vixen who had her eye on father Emmenthal even when his wife was alive.
The film is called 8 1/2 Women, but the juiciness of Fellini is sucked out to make room for pile-driven whimsy, stiff yet caricatured performances and the resuscitation of the disgusting old joke about "why Asian girls are different." Greenaway's films may be sexually explicit, but they have a priggishness that the years never change.

 Narnia on Tour   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
The tale, which reveals both how Narnia was created and how evil first entered it, revolves around the adventures of Polly Plummer, Digory Ketterley, and Digory's Uncle Andrew, a somewhat ludicrous fl magician who Digory thinks "mad," an obvious pun used for effect throughout the story.
After Uncle Andrew has tricked Polly into trying on one of the rings and she has disappeared, Digory confronts him with cheeks that "were flaming with anger." Not to be frightened, his uncle, "bringing his hand down on the table" said: "I will not be talked to like that by a little dirty schoolboy.
Digory, responding "in a voice even nastier than he meant it to be," struck the bell before she could disappear; his act, motivated primarily by anger at Polly, unintentionally set into motion the process whereby evil, in the person of Jadis, eventually entered Narnia.
