	Kinsey (2004): Reviews
		The movie's strength lies in its portrayal of a many-sided genius, as manipulative as he was charming and persuasive, monomaniacal to a fault, generous and sweet yet utterly clueless about the emotional havoc he wrought in the name of science.
		Condon's direction is steady and fearless, Neeson and Linney are individually excellent and together they create an inspiring chemistry for a truly adventurous marriage.
		Condon's tone is gentle and lifeless and at times baffling: The picture is a weird cross between clinical and whimsical.

		Condon nicely and quickly describes the brainwashing, and cleverly keeps the actual use of Shaw's abilities to a minimum or in the background, making them all the more effective when they do take centre-stage.

	Powell's Books - The Manchurian Candidate by Richard Condon
		First published in 1959, The Manchurian Candidate is Condon's riveting take on a little-known corner of the cold war, the almost sci-fi concept of American soldiers captured, brainwashed, and programmed by their Chinese captors to return to the states as unsuspected political assassins.
		Condon?s expert manipulation of the book?s multiple themes — from anticommunist hysteria to megalomaniacal motherhood — makes this one of the most dazzling, and enduring, products of an unforgettable time.
		Condon's Cold War espionage classic, first adapted to film in 1962, is updated for a new motion picture from Paramount Pictures directed by Jonathan Demme ("Philadelphia") and starring Academy Award winners Denzel Washington and Meryl Streep.

	Winter Kills
		Based on a novel by Richard Condon (whose works have lampooned everything from the mafia to Hollywood fllisting) director William Richert deftly balances the satiric with the dramatic, and does Condon's novel proud.
		Richard Boone, Sterling Hayden, Toshiro Mifune, Liz Taylor, JOHN HUSTON, Anthony Perkins, Ralph Meeker, Eli Wallach, Tomas Milian, many only get a scene or two, some only a scene, but they are all used for all the iconic power they are capable of generating.
		It's based on the novel of the same name by Richard Condon who also wrote "The Manchurian Candidate," and, while not as complex as that novel or film, "Winter Kills" is a must-see for conspiracy buffs with a healthy appreciation for dark, irreverant humor.

	All-Reviews.com Movie/Video Review: Chicago
		Her dim-bulb husband, Amos Hart (John C. Reilly), confesses to the shooting to protect his wife, but soon recants, sending Roxie to jail where she falls under the protective wing of the matron, Mama Morton (Queen Latifah) and meets the fellow inmate whose vaudeville act she adores, Velma Kelly (Catherine Zeta-Jones).
		She hires never-lost-a-case lawyer Billy Flynn (Richard Gere), who suggests that she advertise the sale of her effects which bring in a tidy sum, since the public looks at murder as an electrifying form of showbiz.
		Richard Gere, attired first in working-class garb per Roxie's fantasy and mostly in a bespoke, gray, pinstripe suit, shows how the law is little more than entertainment.
