Clementine (2020)

Drama Rated NR

“…about not being able to see others clearly, and how that distorts the way you see yourself.”

Now, Voyager (1942)

Drama Rated NR

“…a part that’s perfect for Davis, which makes it odd that Now, Voyager feels the need to do so much of the work for her.”

Selah and the Spades (2020)

Drama Rated R

“Any movie that mixes the DNA of Mean Girls, Brick, and School Daze has my attention…”

Blow the Man Down (2020)

Thriller Rated R

“…a feminist-flecked variation on an early Coen brothers movie.”

Dark Victory (1939)

Drama Rated NR

“It’s hard to watch Bette Davis admit defeat.”

Never Rarely Sometimes Always (2020)

Drama Rated PG-13

“…as if the masterful Romanian abortion drama 4 Months, 3 Weeks, and 2 Days had been remade as a piece of scruffy American neorealism.”

Beach Rats (2017)

Drama Rated R

“…an intimate portrait of the cost that is paid when a teenager feels societal pressure to remain closeted.”

Following (1998)

Thriller Rated R

“Appropriately, the first shot in Christopher Nolan’s feature debut is of a wooden box full of clues…”

Jezebel (1938)

Drama Rated NR

“Does Jezebel chart Bette Davis’ redemption, or punishment?”

Mulan (1998)

Family Rated G

“…the show tunes and sidekicks are largely unnecessary.”
