Movie Reviews of Don't Come Knocking
Movie Review: Couldn't get through it
Summary: 1 Stars
I only watched the first 15 of this before I gave up. So slow. A movie that seemed at first to be about making movies, which is one of my pet peeves. So cliched. Evidently, it's a bit more than that. Still, the beginning is so lame that I wasn't drawn to see more.
Summary of Don't Come Knocking
Howard Spence's fame has enabled him to become the man he is today - a spoiled movie star known for his rugged good looks and a checkered past of drinking and carousing. One day on a mean drunk he disappears from a film shoot in the Utah hills. A crazy road trip takes him as far as Butte Montana the last place he remembers being happy. Here he finds the scattered remains of a family life that could have been.System Requirements:Run Time: 121 MinutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre:?DRAMA Rating:?R UPC:?043396117228 Manufacturer No:?11722With Don't Come Knocking, Wim Wenders revisits territory, both literal and metaphorical, first explored in Paris, Texas. Not only does he return to the Southwest, but Sam Shepard is back as co-writer. This time, he's also the star. His Howard Spence is a movie cowboy who's had enough. One day while working in Monument Valley, he takes off his boots and hops a train to Nevada to see his mother (Eva Marie Saint, lovely as ever). Little does he know that Sutter (Tim Roth), a by-the-books bondsman, is hot on his trail. Next, Spence travels to Montana where a sad young woman named Sky (Sarah Polley) is recovering from a recent death, while an angry young man named Earl (Gabriel Mann), who sounds much like Chris Isaak, plies the troubadour trade. Spence doesn't know it yet, but they're the results of a rambunctious past that will soon "come knocking," as it were. While in Butte, he also catches up with Doreen (Jessica Lange), a lover from many moons ago. Clearly, Don't Come Knocking is Wenders and Shepard in a reflective mood, even more so than in Paris, Texas, as Spence is older and has more regrets than Harry Dean Stanton's Travis. It doesn't leave as much of an impression, but the film is a worthy addition to the post-modern Western canon. Shot by Franz Lustig, it's frames are filled with intense hues--fiery reds, glowing greens--and a plaintive score by T-Bone Burnett. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
