Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Diane is wonderful
Review: I agree with the previous reviewer. Diane Lane is better than most of the actresses out there. She was a gifted child actress and has continued to shine over the years. Please Hollywood, stop casting the same familiar actresses (Roberts, Diaz, Barrymore). There's nothing wrong with them at all, but Diane deserves to be there too!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Get "Gun"
Review: I have watched the video of "My New Gun" three times, and each time I have discovered more interesting, telling details. The plot doesn't drive the film; instead, it seems to evolve almost by happenstance from the characters themselves. Although there is no "crack-me-up" humor at all, if you think about what is going on as it happens, this movie is hilarious. Diane Lane, James LeGros, and Stephen Collins all shine.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Unique and Moody Object Lesson
Review: This film has an unusual mood and ambiance that I've never seen anywhere else but in Stacy Cochran's other film "Boys". It is mundane, mysterious, and funny all at once. Just as happens in "Boys," the main character in "My New Gun", expertly played by Diane Lane, is subtly moved out of her dissatisfying everyday life by the arrival of an unwanted object (the gun) and an appealingly dangerous outsider (Skippy, wonderfully played by James LeGros.) Highly recommended for anyone with an offbeat sense of humor or an appreciation for subtly taught life lessons. I would love to see more movies from this excellent director.
