Two of the year’s best films. The Power of the Dog It’s rare that a movie built primarily on subtext and ambiguities is this laser-focused and resonant with its themes.

A lot this week. House of Gucci What is this movie trying to be?

A surprisingly good amount of films touch upon Thanksgiving yet it’s not really a holiday that prompts traditional movie-watching. Along with Christmas comes a whole bunch of movies people watch every year – Christmas Vacation, Die Hard, of course, and Scrooged, my own personal Christmas Eve movie tradition. Halloween has a whole genre dedicated toContinue reading “Top 10 Movies You Should Watch Thanksgiving Week w/ Genevieve Rice”
2021 Movie Reviews: Belfast / Passing / My Friends’ Wedding
A good movie, a disappointing movie, and an actual wedding. Belfast ‘Flabbergasted’ is the best word for how I feel about Belfast‘s ecstatic reception and resulting Oscar buzz. Are we as a society so starved for a movie that’s safe and non-challenging, that we’ll take the blandest, slowest, least specific, mediocre grandma schmaltz imaginable andContinue reading “2021 Movie Reviews: Belfast / Passing / My Friends’ Wedding”

2021 Movie Reviews: The Eternals / Spencer / Finch / Paranormal Activity 7: Next of Kin
A terrible movie, two mediocre movies, and an experience to cleanse the soul. The Eternals I awoke Saturday morning to my roommate pounding hard on my bedroom door. “The cops are here, there’s been a break-in.” “Oh fuck, the bastards stole my TV…” I thought to myself. I climbed out of bed, slid on someContinue reading “2021 Movie Reviews: The Eternals / Spencer / Finch / Paranormal Activity 7: Next of Kin”

2021 Movie Reviews: Last Night in Soho / Antlers / Anything for Jackson
Two disappointments and a wonderful surprise. Last Night in Soho Last Night in Soho is the first Edgar Wright film that feels like a downright squandering of potential, but it’s also the film most outside of his comfort zone, so I give him props for trying. The movie opens incredibly strong with an interesting, 60sContinue reading “2021 Movie Reviews: Last Night in Soho / Antlers / Anything for Jackson”
