Flick of the Day

Film: JURASSIC PARK

Director: Steven Spielberg

Actors: Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum, Richard Attenborough, Joseph Mazzello, Ariana Richards, Samuel L. Jackson, Wayne Knight, B.D. Wong

Year: 1993

Synopsis: A paleontologist and a paleobotanist visit an island filled with dinosaurs.

One of the best action films of all time, Steven Spielberg's prehistoric masterpiece is a thrill ride, even to this day (nearly two decades after it's release). The cast was perfect, the script great, but it was the special effects that made this fantastic and very realistic. See this one again!

Performance of the Day

Actor: KIERAN CULKIN

Film: "Igby Goes Down"

Character: Igby

Year: 2002

Long in the shadow of his older brother Macaulay, Kieran seemingly came out of nowhere in 2002 with this fantastic performance. As Igby, a rebellious, sarcastic rich kid who runs away from home to live in the wilds of New York City, Culkin draws you in and keeps you highly entertained. He holds his own amid wonderful performances, specifically by Susan Sarandon and Jeff Goldblum.
