Film-Forward

Comedy

Save Yourselves!

Though disaster films might feel a little too real right now, this one is on the opposite end of the spectrum from Contagion.

I Used to Go Here

Gillian Jacobs stars as a writer who finds herself spiraling downwards in the vein of a gentle, life-affirming screwball comedy.

Yes, God, Yes

Natalia Dyer captures the mannerisms, physicality, and inner life of a teenager so precisely and with such individuality that there is nothing paint-by-numbers about her performance.

Black Magic for White Boys

The flavor is Woody Allen, if he isn’t trying particularly hard.

CRSHD

A coming-of-age comedy told through its own set of emojis.

Mister America

The humor here is so dry, it’s arid.

The Death of Dick Long

A dark screwball comedy set in backwoods Alabama.

Sword of Trust

The entire film hinges on Marc Maron, and he makes it worth seeing.

Family

Taylor Schilling plays a career-obsessed woman with no personal life challenged with watching her awkward niece.
