Bill Muller
He does, but you probably won't, especially from watching this movie.
Eleanor Ringel Gillespie
Like a lazy summer day in the Big Easy, the movie sneaks up on you.
Jeff Shannon
Schorr's award-winning film may be a bit on the slight side to some tastes, but it's a journey well worth taking.
Chris Vognar
Schultze Gets the Blues can get a little thin, but it never loses its sense of quiet, playful dignity.
Lisa Kennedy
The first-time feature director has a gift that will be interesting to watch. Still, his well-executed choices make Schultze at times slow going.
Terry Lawson
In his first feature film, Schorr also shows a surprising confidence in his ability to sustain this joke for nearly two hours, which, like a zydeco dance party, is over before you know it.

A genuinely endearing soul, Schultze earns our admiration not because he indulges himself in a senior citizen's lark but because his journey, like our hero himself, has depths we hadn't suspected.

Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy

There was a time before cable when the local anchorman reigned supreme....Enter the hard-hitting world of the 1970s local TV news, where Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) and his loyal Channel 3 New Team are San Diego's #1 rated news source. All is well in their male-dominated world of news until beautiful, rising-star reporter Veronica Corningstone turns it all upside down. Sparks don't just fly, they ignite an all-out war between the two perfectly coiffed anchorpersons. In a job where it pays to keep a straight face, Anchorman is the comedy that makes it almost impossible to stop laughing.

Before their relationship takes off, Lisa meets up with George (Paul Rudd) a straight-arrow businessman facing his own serious issues, both with his father (Jack Nicholson) and the law. Just when everything seems to be falling apart it doesn't. (Original Title - How Do You Know) © 2010 Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
