This autobiographical coming of age tale from writer-director Eva Gardos begins in 1950s Hungary as Communist oppression forces a pair of aristocratic parents (Nastassja Kinski and Tony Goldwyn) to sneak across the border to freedom and find a new life in America. Circumstances result in their infant daughter, Zsuza, being left behind to spend her formative years in the care of loving Hungarian peasants. When, at age six, she finally comes to the U.S., the cross-curtain culture shock makes for an extra-stormy adolescence, especially when her guilt-ridden mother becomes over-protective to the point of keeping Zsuza locked in her room.
The film makes striking contrast between the old-world beauty of Hungary and the prefabricated gaudiness of post-war America, and Gardos manages to be refreshingly non-judgmental in portraying the pros and cons of each. Performances are uniformly strong, especially from the always-intense Kinski, and newcomer Kelly Endrisz-Balanki as the 6-year-old Zsuzsa (she is later played by Scarlett Johansen, who is also very good). A heartfelt tearjerker that is never maudlin or forced, this story benefits from sharp period detail and has a recognizable ring of truth.

Big Trouble (DVD)
In Barry Sonnenfeld`s BIG TROUBLE, based on the novel by Miami Herald columnist Dave Barry, Tim Allen stars as Eliot Arnold, a former Miami Herald columnist whose wife has left him, drives a Geo, and has an awkward relationship with his teenage son, Matt (Ben Foster). When Eliot meets Anna Herk (a blonde Rene Russo), the wife of crazy moneyman Arthur (Stanley Tucci) and mother of Jenny (Zooey Deschanel), whom Matt is trying to supersoak, they are immediately attracted to each other. Meanwhile, Puggy (Jason Lee), a Fritos fetishist who lives in a tree, falls for the Herks` maid, Nina (Sofia Vergara), as two hit men from Newark (Dennis Farina and Jack Kehler) out to whack a sometimes wigged-out Arthur also attempt to stay away from the cops (an extremely efficient officer played by Janeane Garofalo and a doofus beefcake played by Patrick Warburton). Throw in a psycho security guard (Andy Richter), two top-secret FBI agents (Heavy D and Omar Epps), two lowlife cons (Tom Sizemore and Johnny Knoxville), some Russian mobsters, and a big silver box that probably does not have a household appliance in it and you have one wacky screwball comedy that is as funny as it is wildly complicated.PG-13"
