Film-Forward

American

Janet Planet

Is playwright Annie Baker’s debut film the cinematic masterpiece that many reviews are already claiming?

Sing Sing

The stereotype-busting drama is a rarity, an optimistic film set in a prison.

Stress Positions

The comedy’s title refers to the psychological and emotional state of its characters during a pandemic. (Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?)

Hundreds of Beavers

If you really want to punish David Zaslav for shelving Coyote vs. Acme, you’ll seek out Hundreds of Beavers wherever it’s playing.

Dream Scenario

A unique dark comedy by a rising filmmaker, starring a performer who regularly defies expectations.

The Holdovers

Alexander Payne immediately creates a cocoon of detailed, vintage atmosphere in his latest 1970 end-of-year holidays-set movie.

American Fiction | TIFF 2023

First time director Cord Jefferson accomplishes quite a balancing act. He has made a family drama and, more pungently and winningly, a satire aimed at an adult audience. 

Earth Mama

Writer/director Savanah Leaf guides the viewer with ease and delicate care in her impressive debut.

Master Gardener

Paul Schrader once again brings us into the world of a troubled protagonist seeking some sort of redemption.
