Widow of Silence
A quiet and devastating film that also manages to be suffused with humor and dark irony.
Film-Forward
We Are Little Zombies
If there is a release this year more inventive and phantasmagoric than this movie, one would be hard pressed to find it. It's like Natural Born Killers on crack.
Black Magic for White Boys
The flavor is Woody Allen, if he isn’t trying particularly hard.
My Darling Vivian
A loving tribute to Johnny Cash’s first wife, Vivian Liberto, and a corrective to her portrayal in the 2005 film Walk the Line.
Da 5 Bloods
A classic adventure story that also functions mostly, and succeeds wildly, as melodrama.
The Ghost of Peter Sellers
What could have been a Spinal Tap–like absurdist comedy or an insider’s look into the sometimes tortuous process of filmmaking ends up feeling more like score settling.
The Vast of Night
Rarely has a debut film attacked its subject matter with such energy and verve.
