KCBS Entertainment Report: The Sessions
?
CLOUD ATLAS (R)
Fasten your seatbelts for an epic film that travels over 500 years. Based on the novel by David Mitchell, this wild ride unfolds in multiple timelines. There?s drama, mystery, high action and romance. What makes this all work are the actors who play many roles, especially Tom Hanks. He?s given support by Halle Barry and Hugh Grant.
This film is a study in the craft of acting, as well as excellent movie makeup. The same filmmakers gave us the Matrix trilogy, so the effects and visuals are imaginative. The movie is worth seeing, especially on the big screen where it belongs. There should be an Oscar for the makeup and at least some nominations for set design and Tom Hanks.

THE SESSIONS (R)
So many movies exploit sexuality or make it offensive, funny or even gross. Here is a film that makes it important to the human condition as well as touching and unforgettable.
Based on the surprisingly optimistic writing of Bay Area journalist and poet Mark O?Brien, we meet a man who has lived most of his life in an iron lung. At age 38 he is determined to experience sexuality. With the help of a sex therapist (Helen Hunt) and a priest (William H. Macy), O?Brien (John Hawkes) sets out to make this dream a reality. Hawkes is loveable and witty as O?Brien, Macy as usual excellent as he plays comedy for truth. But, it is Hunt who provides us with the dignity and honesty in this true story. Everyone involved in this movie, including writer/director Ben Lewin, deserves Oscar gold.
Four hats.
