	Calendar Girls True Story - Movie Calendar Girls Real Pictures
		Much of the film was fictionalized, including the majority of the characters and their names.
		In real life the husbands did not see the photographs until the day the calendar was released.
		In her BBC review of the film, real life calendar girl Tricia Stewart explained that the argument that arose between Annie and Chris in the film did not happen between any of the girls in real life.

	The Terminator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The film was originally scheduled to be shot in Spring, 1983 in Toronto, and filming eventually began in March of 1984 in Los Angeles.
		Although the film is commonly perceived as technophobic, Cameron considers technology neutral: capable of being used for both good and evil.
		In the film, despite the numerous machines that cause all the bad things to happen (the answering machine, the personal tape player, Sarah's mother's telephone, etc.), it is also a machine, the hydraulic press, that eventually destroys the Terminator.

	Juliette in real life - Film & Cinema, Entertainment - Independent.ie
		Binoche's latest film, Dan in Real Life, sees her as the lust object of not one but two men.
		She prefers to work on independent movies in France, but her mainstream films have always been interesting choices, from John Boorman's apartheid film, In My Country, and Lasse Hallstrom's romance, Chocolat (with Johnny Depp), to Louis Malle's Damage, starring as a woman embroiled in a forbidden love affair with Jeremy Irons's married British MP.
		Binoche fell in love with Dan in Real Life's bittersweet script, despite the fact that she'd never heard of co-stars Steve Carell and Dane Cook.

	OUT OF SYNC: THE CINEMA OF TIM ASCH - Jay Ruby
		The primary purpose of his films is to teach cultural anthropology to university undergraduates and be accessible so that other scholars and teachers could make use of the filmic materials in ways not imagined by their original producers.
		While grand films have much to offer in their own right, all are too long to use in the classroom and they, of course, suffer from being products of the technology and times that produced them.
		And so it was really with Jerry Bruner' s support and interest and knowledge and what I learned from him as an apprentice that I took it all the way with the rest of the Bushman films and the Yanomami films and had the courage to teach anthropology in a different way.

	ESPN.com - Page2 - Reel Life: 'Raging Bull'
		In Real Life: It was an open secret that the Mafia controlled pro boxing in those days, and La Motta made a decision, as is stated early and often in the film, that he wanted to make it on his own in boxing.
		In Reel Life: La Motta and Sugar Ray Robinson are described in the film as "fierce rivals," and after one of their bouts, in which Jake loses, he says to Joey, "I've done a lot of bad things, Joey.
		In Real Life: As La Motta admitted in later testimony and in his book, he did throw his fight against Billy Fox at Madison Square Garden on Nov. 14, 1947, and he did it knowing, at that point, that he really wouldn't get a shot at the title unless the mob arranged it.

	From Krakow to Japan, life's a soap opera - theage.com.au
		Now in its fourth year, the REAL: Life on Film festival is dedicated to the art of the documentary.
		There are exceptions, but one of the most distinctive aspects of the films I've been able to preview is their reliance on conventional storytelling strategies.
		It is being presented at the festival as a documentary, despite the fact that it was actually scripted and performed for the camera, in what the film maker describes as a "re-enactment" of events in which she'd been involved, with all the participants playing themselves.

	Dan in Real Life \| film reviews \| musicOMH.com
		This is where things start to get really twisted, as we root for Dan, even though he keeps the truth to himself, behaves brattishly at dinner, and keeps trying to steal awkward moments with Marie.
		He stands by, torturing himself, while Mitch and Marie go through a particularly athletic stretching manoeuvre together, and is chastised by his ever-alert daughters for flirting with their uncle’s girl, who incidentally is adored by the entire family with a degree of warmth and enthusiasm Dan is rarely afforded.
		Dan in Real Life has plenty of dark moments, such as when the intellectual Dan suffers the agonies of a man alone, watching his overgrown college jock brother enjoying life with the woman he adores, and borrowing phrases from his own writing to woo her.

		Whether he's flopping down on the cot in the laundry room where he is subjected to sleep as the only single adult at this reunion or fidgeting around the kitchen, unable to stand still in his anxiety, Dan is every guy who has even been unsure of himself and felt alone in the crowd.
		I wondered after seeing the film if I enjoyed the it as much as I did, despite its slight shortcomings (Juliette Binoche — I know you might like to lighten up every now and then but I don't recommend it unless there is chocolate involved), because of where I am in my life.
		What I can say, as someone who knows what it means to be lonely, "Dan in Real Life" knows what it means to be surprised by life and love and how these moments and people need to be appreciated and cherished.

		According to the late Ephraim Katz in "The Film Encyclopedia," the term "documentary" was first used by movie critic John Grierson in his review of Flaherty's 1926 factual film, "Moana," for the New York Sun.
		Seen in smallish venues dedicated to specialized audiences, their films could be stereotyped in the most facile way as leftist ideology - documentaries preaching to the already converted - but their impact was anything but limiting.
		And now, we have "reality TV," which is essentially a corruption of all of the above in that supposedly real people in real situations are under the thumb of strict directorial control and often even a script.

	'Dan in Real Life' - honest film on family, love
		Actor Steve Carrell anchors "Dan in Real Life" - a sweet, slightly sentimental movie that strives to be honest in its depiction of family relationships and looking for the 'right' kind of love.
		The strong point of the film is clearly the characters.
		But for those who want to quieten things a bit, slow down a little, and want to spend some time with real people trying to answer some real life problems, this movie will satisfy.

	New York Press - MATT ZOLLER SEITZ - The Reel World
		So says Albert Brooks in his 1979 film Real Life, which is being screened as part of a surveillance-themed series at the Museum of the Moving Image April 16–May 8.
		Titled "Candid Cameras: Real Life on Film," the series jumps around through the decades, highlighting the ironies and contradictions that occur when documentary apes drama, and vice-versa.
		In Real Life, an ambitious young filmmaker (Brooks, playing "himself") goes to Phoenix and dogs the middle-class Yeager family (headed by Charles Grodin and Lee McCain) with documentary crews and hidden cameras.

	Dan in Real Life - Film School Rejects
		Dan in Real Life is simply a film that doesn’t live up to what its title and slogan promises.
		As far as the movie feeling like real life goes, this is far from it, despite a few honest and sincere moments.
		The slogan for the film is â€œplan to be surprised,â€ but I found most of it to be formulaic and predictable.

	Eye for Film : Dan In Real Life (2007) Film Review
		Dan in Real Life may have a number of narrative bowling balls lined up, but you will know right from the start where they are all going to end up rolling.
		There is no mistaking Hedges' film for anything other than a saccharine corn-fest, but what keeps it from palling entirely is the strength of the ensemble performances, and the smartly understated writing.
		All in all, it is a well-executed wade through the treacliest aspects of real life - too amiable (and, thankfully, not too long) to rouse strong objections from even the most jaded and cynical of viewers.

	sonic-cinema.com: Dan in Real Life::film review
		This is one of those films that’s predictable in a lot of ways- in fact, I find it hard to find an unpredictable moment in it- but completely endearing to an audience thanks to the smart writing and strong performances.
		This is the first film by writer-director Peter Hedges since his underrated “Pieces of April” (with a pre-Cruise Katie Holmes), and if you’ve watched that film, you know you’re in for a sweet, slightly off-kilter family comedy.
		Not to say real parents aren’t good and honest people, but Mahoney and Wiest are the type of parents who don’t have any flaws- that’s what makes them “only in the movies” parents.

	Dan in Real Life - Film School Rejects
		A good friend compared Dan in Real Life to The Family Stone, but having never seen The Family Stone I can only say that there is no way that this movie could be worse than anything in Sarah Jessica Parker’s filmography.
		In fact, this film is more akin to Little Miss Sunshine in that it is the quirkiness of the family around Dan that keep the movie very light and fun.
		On the whole, Dan in Real Life combines the hilarious and brilliant Steve Carell with a very smart script, leading to a film that is one of the most heartwarming and genuinely funny releases of the year.

	Comparing the film to real life
		Fran Walsh and Peter Jackson have both stated that they intended the film to portray known facts as accurately as possible.
		Of equal importance, the filmmakers made some significant omissions of fact, inevitable when a story this complicated is brought to the screen.
		Although the film presents a tight, consistent set of facts (which still carry enormous ambiguity) and it is an outstanding effort, it is the omissions from the film which lead me to give it a grade of B for accuracy.

		When the film debuted in April as the first feature film to examine 9/11, some pundits went into overdrive debating whether Greengrass' film could evoke the tragedy without exploiting it.
		And the film has gotten some traction this awards season - kudos from the New York and Los Angeles film critics' associations, although it was shut out from the higher-profile, and televised, Golden Globes nominations.
