Saltzman Sees...The Pelican Brief (1993)

The Pelican Brief won my Best Actress (Julia Roberts) and was nominated for Best Supporting Actress (Denzel Washington) in 1993.

Saltzman Sees...Shrek (2001)

Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz and Eddie Murphy began a journey in 2001 that would allow Dreamworks to compete with Disney Pixar to this day.  Myers, who has been brilliant in the past with outlandish characters from Saturday Night Live, including two Wayne's World movies and an Austin Powers trilogy, raises the bar as Shrek.  Myers creates depth and warmth in a over-sized ugly ogre that is captivating.

Shrek teaches us that falling in love is about what is in one's heart and mind and not about superficial things like appearance.  It is a beautiful love story and one the whole family will enjoy.  It is the Best Family Picture of 2001.
