Two decades after Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels’ endearingly dense pairing spun slapstick comedy into box office gold in Dumb and Dumber, the long-awaited sequel, Dumb and Dumber To, arrives on DVD and Blu-ray Combo Pack and On Demand on February 17, 2015 from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. Directed by Peter and Bobby Farrelly (Dumb and Dumber; There’s Something about Mary; Me, Myself and Irene) the Dumb and Dumber To Blu-ray Combo Pack offers hilarious extra belly laughs including an alternate opening, deleted and extended scenes, and a multi-part feature that takes viewers behind the scenes of the no-holds-barred comedy.
The side-splitting sequel also stars Rob Riggle (The Hangover, 21 Jump Street), Kathleen Turner (Marley & Me, Romancing the Stone), Laurie Holden (“The Walking Dead,” Silent Hill), Rachel Melvin (My Funny Valentine, “Days of Our Lives”), and Steve Tom(“Major Crimes,” Seven Pounds).

As we’ve just posted our essay about Meryl Streep’s Burberry trench coat in Kramer vs. Kramer (1979), it seems fitting we have a round up of the best coat related posts in the Clothes on Film archive. This is coats purely as outerwear too. So, even though lounge suit jackets are traditionally referred to as coats, here they stay as jackets. Likewise Victorian frock coats; that is a round up for another day. Click the image to read the article.
The plush fur-trimmed coat worn by Angelina Jolie as Christine Collins in 1920/30s set The Changeling (2008). Jolie referred to her costumes as “dolls’ clothes”, which is more costume designer Deborah Hopper’s unwavering commitment to the period than anything else.
Gwyneth Paltrow as middle class fashion icon Margot Tenenbaum in The Royal Tenenbaums (2001). That toffee coloured fur coat is by Fendi, real mink and will set you back around $4,000 – if you can find one.

"The School of Rock" rocks. This audience-pleaser comes from writer Mike White and director Richard Linklater, names usually associated with independent filmmaking. For that matter, the moviemakers have fun with their own filmography as the movie does comic riffs on the world of slackers, disaffected outsiders and other anti-Establishment types. White and Linklater team up with actor-musician Jack Black to create a high-energy comedy that takes its hero seriously when he declares, "I serve society by rocking!" Paramount has a winner in this Scott Rudin production.
"The School of Rock" gets going slowly as the film's first 20 minutes let Black go over the top to establish his slacker credentials. A hapless and aging rocker with no record deal or even next month's rent to show for years devoted to rock 'n' roll, Black's Dewey Finn is in a bad way. On the same day, he gets fired from his own band and receives a none-too-subtle eviction notice from roommate Ned White), egged on by Ned's exasperated girlfriend, Patty (Sarah Silverman).
Desperate to earn some bread, Dewey pretends to be Ned, who works as a substitute schoolteacher. Dewey takes a job for several weeks at a snooty private elementary school run by anal principal Rosalie Mullins (Joan Cusack). Dewey is content to institute daylong recess until he hears his youngsters play in orchestra class. Impulsively, he decides to mold these musical prodigies into a rock band. He junks the curriculum in favor of rock history, rock music appreciation and a pledge of allegiance that gives him "creative control" of the band.
Watching Black's deadbeat rocker teach a class of uniformed, rigidly disciplined youngsters how to adopt nonconformist, antisocial attitudes proves a rich source of comedy. Watching Dewey teach the theory and practice of rock, we realize this guy really does have an instinct for teaching -- as long as the subject inspires his passion. Soon his kids start acting like kids, not miniature adults, and Dewey dons the mantle of adult responsibility for the first time.
The filmmakers threw out a wide casting net to snare talented young musicians and singers to play the preteens in Dewey's high-voltage rock band, kids who can musically "kick ass" and "melt some faces." The young performers all prove up to their acting chores as well. They create forceful personalities, ranging from Joey Gaydos Jr.'s Zack, who really loosens up to get into the physicality of being a lead guitar player, to Maryam Hassan's Tomika, whose rich voice helps her overcome shyness and insecurity, and Miranda Cosgrove's Summer, the band's manager, who switches from books on geometry to those dealing with the economics of music and the career of David Geffen.
The film hits another comic mother lode in the byplay between Black and Cusack when he persuades her to agree to a class "field trip" by playing her favorite rock music in a grunge tavern.
Where this is all headed is imminently predictable, but getting there is no less fun. The climatic debut of the school band, which the youngsters name the School of Rock, is the film's highlight. Black's own rock talents contribute to the socko finish.
Good rock music runs throughout the movie. Some songs were written by Black and White. (Hey, that's a catchy name for a songwriting duo.) The New York band Mooney Suzuki wrote the fictional band's signature song, "School of Rock".
Shot in New York and New Jersey, "The School of Rock" benefits from Rogier Stoffers' fluid cinematography, Jules Fisher and Peggy Eisenhauer's theatrical lighting design for the final number and Karen Patch's amusing costumes that transform school uniforms into outlaw garb.

There'll be a Big Mac Attack for ''My Girl'': overanxious tots storming to see their ''Home Alone'' hero, Macaulay Culkin, waste the big bad people and, then, blind-sided parents who'll have to cope with their little ones' emotional confusion when they emerge from a show where Culkin is struck dead.
Word-of-mouth in the lower grades at the elementary school will be troubled. Truly, Columbia, to paraphrase the title song, will have ''when it's cold outside, the month of May'' at the boxoffice, but those receipts will be a mixed blessing: this fine film's most appreciative audience may be adults over 35 who will only inadvertently show up for this offering, who, like their kids, will think ''My Girl'' is some sort of ''Home Alone'' clone. Why should they think different, the ads are careful not to say.
The film's most enthusiastic viewers will likely be found six months hence in the family video room, among adults who find they're hooked on this beguiling coming-of-age drama just as their kids scamper away to noisier, less-troubling activity.
Rippling with a tender and robust script from first-time screenwriter Laurice Elehwany, ''My Girl'' is a spirited, early 1970s story about one Middle American girl's coming-of-age: 11-year-old Vada (Anna Chlumsky) is a hyperactive, hypochondriac kid whose home life is, well, funereal -- her widowed father (Dan Aykroyd) is an undertaker and the family abode is also a funeral home.
Bright and super-sensitive, young Vada is susceptible to unrelenting fears of death: like first-year med students, she thinks she has the terminal symptoms of whatever disease her father's latest ''client'' died from. In short, her whole home setting, which includes a senile grandmother, prompts this morbidity.
Her only solaces are a kind schoolteacher (Griffin Dunne), whom she develops a crush on, and her tag-along friend Thomas J. (Culkin), whose shy gentleness soothes her. But deep down, the little girl is troubled by an overwhelming burden -- her mother died as a result of her birth and she feels guilty!
Also, still suffering the pangs of that death is Vada's father, Harry. has schlumped to an easy chair and a sitcom. His resuscitation here, however, is decidedly less complex than his daughter's: a leggy cosmetologist Jamie Lee Curtis) comes to work for him and, amazingly, her eyeshadow immediately turns to goo over the hefty Harry.
While this parallel adult-style revitalization is pleasing, it is perhaps this somber story's weakest, most facile link. Nonetheless, director Howard Zieff ties it all together with a masterly, if somewhat over-rosy, knot.
''My Girl's'' performances are terrific. Young Chlumsky is a wonderful whirlwind of emotions as the acutely sensitive Vada, while Culkin is endearingly natural as her first kiss. Once again, Aykroyd shows his considerable strength as a dramatic actor.
Tech contributions are tops: Joseph T. Garrity's production design and Karen Patch's costume design color this Nixon/Agnew-era story with the festering contradictions of the times, while James Newton Howard's music layers in all the right emotional lilts.
