Maybe you’re looking to save a few bucks or the current theater choices just aren’t cutting it. Whatever the case may be, sometimes it’s just as nice to sit a home and watch a good flick. Take a look at this week’s picks for some At-Home Alternatives to the weekly cinema options.
Man on a Ledge (2012) Directed by Asger Leth. Written by: Pablo F. Fenjves. Starring: Sam Worthington, Elizabeth Banks and Jamie Bell.

Lindsay here, and Woo Hoo! French Toast Sunday has just reached our 500th blog post! Round of applause that I haven’t killed myself or Will or Marc yet! First off, I want to say THANK YOU to our daily readers and commenters and podcast listeners that have indulged us over the past (almost) two years. You guys are pretty damn awesome for encouraging our shenanigans and validating the countless hours we waste blabbing about film. We love you. Seriously. Not in a ‘we should start a domestic partnership‘ sort of way but more like a ‘we might help you move furniture if we were free that day‘ sort of way.
Red Tails (2012) Directed by Anthony Hemingway. Written by: John Ridley and Aaron McGruder. Starring: Cuba Gooding Jr., Gerald McRaney and David Oyelowo. IMDB says: “A crew of African American pilots in the Tuskegee training program, having faced segregation while kept mostly on the ground during World War II, are called into duty under the guidance of Col. A.J. Bullard.”
One of the most interesting aspects of A Dangerous Method was the matters of psychology. The movie primarily focused on Sigmund Freud’s method of psychoanalysis and talk only briefly of Carl Jung’s interest in studying the unconscious. It was only really brought up to explain the rift that was beginning to grow between Freud and Jung. In the film, Freud and Jung have a rift brought between them when Jung starts to talk about the unconscious and Freud rejects it as paranormal beliefs.
