Tribeca Festival Review: ‘Tow’ is a Big Hearted True Story Anchored By Rose Byrne
True life dramas often have a lot of goodwill in their favor when telling these stories. The one thing a film like Tow has to avoid? They can’t make these tales of tragedy and triumph into poverty porn. If the movie appears to be wallowing, it can seem hollow. Luckily, this flick has such a […] More

The visual language of the film is very Smith-coded, with Clerks homaged on numerous occasions, from a cameo all the way to the “if you plan to […] More

Tribeca Festival Review: ‘Bang Bang’ is a Career Highlight From Tim Blake Nelson
Boxing films tend to follow a certain formula. That’s just inherent in the genre. They’re sports dramas where the fight out of the ring tends to be as important, or even more important, than the one inside of the ring. Bang Bang doesn’t upend that, to be sure, but it does manage to utilize the […] More
