Earlier today, the first Trailer for Robert Eggers‘ The Northman, which is one of 2022’s most anticipated titles. The director behind The Witch and The Lighthouse, Eggers now presents a viking epic, which has some major potential.

Well, Wolf is the tenth, a movie that sees the drama and tragedy instead. So, we have an independent character study, one that challenges at almost […] More
How a filmmaker chooses to tell a story is up to them, obviously. They can go big, they can go small, choose genres to play in, etc. It’s all part of the fun of going to the movies. However, sometimes you do wonder why a writer or a director (or both) opt to tell a […] More
Well, it happened. Here in Canada at the 2021 Toronto International Film Festival, a surefire Oscar player has emerged. Belfast is going to be impossible not to fall in love with, which will likely result in it being cited in multiple categories at the Academy Awards. Not only is the quality there, as this is […] More
When you sit down to a Paul Schrader film, you more or less know what you’re getting yourself into. Schrader doesn’t do light fare.

Things have been surprisingly quiet on the Tom McCarthy front since his 2015 film Spotlight won the Oscars for Best Picture and earned him and Josh Singer a win for Best Original Screenplay.

Wow. There’s literally no other way to express how one feels watching Promising Young Woman. Films like this don’t come around very often. Intentionally provocative, boldly funny, utterly thrilling, and literally able to keep you on the edge of your seat, this is truly something special.

I’ve seen literally thousands of performances this year. Over 350 movies will do that. Of all of the turns by actors and actresses this year, newcomer Sidney Flanigan is front and center.
