Film Review: ‘The Threesome’ Finds the Messiness and Realism in a Unique Encounter
When you hear the premise for The Threesome, the movie you imagine in your head is not the one you end up getting. Now, sometimes that can be a negative, but here, it’s very much in the film’s favor. What sounds like it could be a raunchy comedy or a cringey tale is instead done […] More

Film Review: ‘Juror #2’ is Clint Eastwood’s Best Work in Years
For years now, it has been diminishing returns with Clint Eastwood. The past twenty years has seen his directorial efforts go from hotly anticipated A-list works for adults to, at best, a mixed bag, with some awful films to boot.

Interview: Zoey Deutch Returns to Talk About ‘Not Okay’ and Much More!
Zoey Deutch is an underrated gem. As I said here when I first interviewed her earlier in the year: “For years, Zoey Deutch has been one of my favorite actresses. Whether it’s Everybody Wants Some or Flower (her breakthroughs for me) or especially Buffaloed, she has given turn after turn of terrific work.

Interview: ‘Not Okay’ Filmmaker Quinn Shephard on Her Second Directorial Outing
It’s almost upsetting how quickly Quinn Shephard has become a skilled writer and director. I don’t mean that as a criticism either, she’s just putting everyone to shame with her talent. After all, she made her filmmaking debut at such a young age with Blame, most other artists are still in the process of learning, […] More

Film Review: ‘Not Okay’ is Another Showcase for Zoey Deutch’s Acting and Quinn Shephard’s Filmmaking
It’s hard not to be blown away by both Zoey Deutch and Quinn Shephard. One is an actress at the height of her young powers, while the other is an emerging filmmaking force. With Not Okay, they come together in a wildly entertaining and deeply satirical manner. Well acted, very funny, and with a surprisingly […] More

Interview: Zoey Deutch Chats About ‘The Outfit’ And Her Exciting Career
For years, Zoey Deutch has been one of my favorite actresses. Whether it’s Everybody Wants Some or Flower (her breakthroughs for me) or especially Buffaloed, she has given turn after turn of terrific work. That she isn’t a bigger star legitimately bugs me, but her time is coming. The Outfit, for example, shows off a […] More

Film Review: ‘The Outfit’ is an Actor’s Showcase for the Likes of Mark Rylance, Zoey Deutch, and More
Strong acting is some of the purest form of cinema there is. Give me a film with good performances leading the way and I’m down for just about any story being told. When it can be something as intense and twisty, yet as fun as The Outfit is, well…all the better. This movie could easily […] More

An Appreciation of Zoey Deutch and ‘Buffaloed’
It could have been easy for Zoey Deutch to sexualize her performance in Buffaloed. Deutch’s Peg Dahl is powerful, and she repeatedly gets men to do what she wants. She instead gave a performance of an unapologetically strong woman that should resonate in film history as changing the perception of how female roles can be […] More
