Spring movies
Continued from page 6A
The Charlie Kaufman penned “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless
Mind” (March 19) stars Jim Carrey as a man who attempts to erase
painful memories of a failed relationship from his mind. Kevin
Smith’s latest film, “Jersey Girl,” (March 19) stars Ben Affleck as
single father Ollie Trinke. Affleck’s real-life on-again, off-again
girlfriend Jennifer Lopez makes an appearance as Trinke's wife.
Seth Green and Alicia Silverstone join the Mystery, Inc. cast in
“Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed” (March 26).
Yet another 1970s television show will be turned into a film when
Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson ride into the retro-cop role of “Starsky

will make guest appearances.

Two films based on super hero comic books will be released in
April. “Hellboy” (April 2) stars Ron Pearlman as a demon sent to earth
during World War II who chooses to fight evil for America as a para
normal investigator. Thomas Jane stars as the killer vigilante “The
Punisher” (April 16) in the movie by the same name. John Travolta co-
stars as a Miami crime boss.
For those viewers who would rather have a laugh than be awed by
a superhero, Ben Stiller and Jack Black team up with Christopher
Walken in the comedy “Envy” by Academy Award-winning director
Barry Levinson. Stiller becomes jealous when his friend Black strikes
it rich with his invention, Va-Poo-Rizer. a spray that makes dog drop
pings disappear.
“The Whole Nine Yards” duo Matthew Perry and Bruce Willis team
up again in the sequel to their 1999 hit, aptly titled “The Whole Ten
Yards” (April 9). Willis plays a hitman who must protect a dentist
(Perry) once again.
After a four-month delay, “The Alamo” will finally be remembered
April 8. Billy Bob Thornton and Dennis Quaid star as Davy Crockett
and Gen. Sam Houston respectively. The Rock and Johnny Knoxville
co-star in “Walking Tall” (April 9) as two men who take it upon them
selves to clean up their small town of the crime that has infested it.
“Walking Tall” is a remake of a 1973 film of the same name, which
was in turn based on a true story.
On April 15, Uma Thurman will return to her task to “Kill Bill" in
the second installment of Quentin Tarantino’s violent epic. Stephen
King’s novella, “Secret Window, Secret Garden” will be adapted into
the “Secret Window,” starring Johnny Depp (April 23). John Turturro
co-stars as an eccentric man who claims a writer (Depp) stole his idea
for a story. Denzel Washington stars in “Man on Fire" (April 23) as an
ex-marine hired to protect a young girl played by Dakota Fanning,
while Julianne Moore and Pierce Brosnan star in “Laws of Attraction"
(April 30), a romantic comedy about a relationship between lawyers.
