Jude Law and Julia Roberts and Clive Owen and Natalie Portman fall giddily in love in "Closer," but don't be fooled: This is the furthest thing possible from a date movie.

You heard it here first, folks: 2004 is the year of the romance. It&#39;s September, and while there&#39;s still the big Oscar push to go, so far the movies that have really stuck out, the movies that

LOS ANGELES, Dec 8 (Reuters Life!) - He can't guarantee a date with Cameron Diaz or Jude Law but Ed Kushins can promise you will live like they do -- in the movies, anyway.

Contrary to popular belief, sex doesn't necessarily sell. While movie ads are usually rife with the promise of romance and sensuality, the rare film that frankly delves into explicit sexuality does so at its own risk.

Okay, a few days ago I wrote a review of the Diving Bell and the Butterfly saying it could be the best picture of 2007, but even so you might want to skip it because the truth it reveals might be something you don't want to look at. It's a fine picture, but a tough one. Another wonderful but tough picture is No Country for Old Men. It's one of those movies that leaves so much unresolved that you walk out of the theater not sure which foot goes in front of the other. On a second viewing it makes much more sense. The world isn't necessarily as crazy as it at first seemed. But there's a movie that is also incredibly well crafted, and gets better every time you think about it -- Juno. I didn't realize how much I liked it until I heard someone compare it to Little Miss Sunshine, a movie that I did not enjoy, unlike everyone else it seems. I loved Juno because it organizes its sweetness into love for one person, the star of the movie, Juno. But everyone, no matter how dorky or clueless (and some of the adults are truly dorky and clueless) shares the love. The movie has a wholeness, an unqualified goodness, you not only walk out of the theater in love with Juno and everyone else in the movie, but your heart is warmed for everyone, including yourself. It's that good.  All three remind how good movies can be. And there were some not-too-bad movies at the end of 2007, for example, Atonement, which some didn't like, but I did. 3:10 to Yuma is a well-crafted genre picture. Michael Clayton was a perfect showcase for the talents of George Clooney. Great acting and a simple story in The Savages.  Which one was the best? I'd hate to have to choose!

As a filmmaker, James Toback may be as committed to Manhattan as is Woody Allen. But, as his newest feature, "When Will I Be Loved," makes clear, Toback doesn't share Allen's romantic, Gershwin-scored view of the city.

The holiday movie season is here. Some folks might want to see the flaccid sequel silliness of Bridget Jones: The Edge Of Reason or take in the failed Indiana Jones/Da Vinci Code rip-off that is National Treasure.

Even if you don't suffer from claustrophobia or fear of insects, this movie may not be worth the trip.
