This satire aims at a variety of subjects, but the Presidency of George W. Bush and the reality show, American Idol, are the prime targets. Dennis Quaid takes on the role of recovering alcoholic President Staton who seldom reads the newspaper and relies on the advice of his Dick Cheney-like Chief of Staff (Willem Dafoe) who, to increase the President's ratings, books him as a guest judge on the popular reality show, American Dreamz. The TV show, featuring aspiring musical artists, is easily identified as a satirical view of American Idol with the popular program's self-absorbed Martin Tweed (Hugh Grant) preparing the season's new shows. Contestants include blonde redneck Sally Kendoo (Mandy Moore) and show-tune loving terrorist Omer Obeidi (Sam Golzari). The President agrees to a live presentation, and Omer prepares to assassinate him during his appearance on live TV.

Bret Easton Ellis' 1991 satirical novel about the lack of morality on Wall Street in the 1980s features Christian Bale as the young Yuppie who goes to work and, apparently, does nothing but watch TV, make dinner reservations, and listen to pop ballads. It is the nighttime scene at which he excels: macabre acts of sex, violence, and murder.

In the United States, the President is given the power to order military might only in the case of "clear and present danger" to the national security. This is the reasoning behind President Edward Bennett (Donald Moffat) ordering Special Forces into Colombia to break up a drug cartel. Jack Ryan (Harrison Ford) is the President's intelligence deputy who leads the covert military attack. Intrigue and action prevail from beginning to end.

But, negotiating is not going to be an easy task. First, Frazier and Mitchell must deal with other police officers–Captain Darius (Willem Dafoe) wants to storm the bank. Then, the hostages are forced to dress in jumpsuits and masks like the robbers making it difficult to separate the good guys from the bad guys. As if that were not enough, a bank executive (Christopher Plummer) hires a "fixer," Madeline White (Jodie Foster) to intercede and deal with the robbers. Trouble, trouble, and more troubles ensue.

When Beckman's (Judge Reinhold) T-bird is damaged by locals in a small Arizona town, he and Johnny (Willem Dafoe), a hitchhiker that Beckman had picked up, check out the town while the car is being repaired. They even get a chance for revenge against the youngsters that shot the car's radiator. The only thing saving this dull tale is the soundtrack that is packed with popular rock songs of the day.

When German filmmaker F.W. Murnau (John Malkovich) began production on his 1922 vampire film, "Nosferatu," he hired method actor Max Schreck (Willem Dafoe) to play the Dracula role. Schreck just happens to be a vampire, and Murnau has promised him the film's star, Greta Schroeder (Catherine McCormack) when the shoot is finished. Murnau begins to doubt the wisdom of his deal when crew members, one by one, disappear during the interim. Dafoe's great performance resulted in an Oscar nomination for Supporting Actor.

Stan Lee's comic book character, Spider-Man, comes to the screen backed by super special effects and gripping live-action shots. The story begins with orphaned Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) living in Queens, New York, with his Aunt May (Rosemary Harris) and Uncle Ben (Cliff Robertson). Peter is leading the life of a normal student–until he goes on a school trip and is bitten by a genetically altered spider. Now, he finds that he has unusual powers. But, using those powers is not that easy, and Peter does not make use of his new talent when a burgular murders Uncle Ben. Then Peter remembers that Uncle Ben told him, "With great power, there must also come great responsibility." That's what it takes, and now Peter uses those extraordinary powers to fight crime. However, the Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe) is out there ready to stop any of Peter's good deeds.

This film chronicles the marriage of famous poet T.S. Eliot (Willem Dafoe) and Vivienne (Miranda Richardson). It was not until after their marriage that Eliot found out that his wife had a "condition," a misdiagnosed hormonal disorder that caused mood swings. The diagnosis of "emotional problems" resulted in making the condition worse with her prescribed medications (including liquor). The troubled marriage, which included her being placed in a mental institution, had a great influence on T.S. Eliot's work and life. Miranda Richardson was nominated for a Best Actress Oscar and Rosemary Harris was nominated for Best Supporting Actress.
