	LATEST FESTIVAL REVIEWS
	Ginger & Rosa: Telluride Review Just 13 during the shoot, Elle Fanning exhibits an amazing range in Sally Potter’s sharply observed tale of growing up amid the turmoil of nuclear threat and familial discord. Boxing Day: Venice Review Following "Ivans XTC" and "The Kreutzer Sonata," writer-director Bernard Rose and lead actor Danny Huston complete their trilogy of Tolstoy updates with this two-character drama. Mold (Küf): Venice Review Ercan Kesal and Muhammet Uzuner star in writer-director Ali Aydin's debut feature, a Turkish-German co-production examining issues of loss, grief and guilt. Love Is All You Need: Venice Review Danish filmmaker Susanne Bier follows her Oscar winner "In a Better World" with a warmly sentimental comedy that stars Pierce Brosnan and Trine Dyrholm. To the Wonder: Venice Review Everyone and everything is contaminated to Terrence Malick, who fills his film with one inconclusive scene after another. Lullaby To My Father: Venice Review Prolific director Amos Gitai profiles his architect parent in this Swiss/Israeli/French co-production. The Master: Venice Review Paul Thomas Anderson's extraordinary character study, with a career-defining performance from Joaquin Phoenix, is not the Scientology exposé everyone was expecting. Midnight’s Children: Telluride Review Faithful Salman Rushdie adaptation might play better at a literary convention than at the cineplex. The Attack: Telluride Review The film, from Lebanese-born director Ziad Doueiri, centers on a Palestinian surgeon who learns about his wife's secret life as a terrorist after she kills 17 people in a suicide bombing.
