Call Me by Your Name and Brokeback Mountain are two titles that have reached mainstream consciousness, having been put out by their respective studios' indie labels. These films typically do not have the marketing budgets to reach a wider audience, nor are they intended to. [...]
At the risk of intentionally avoiding the razmataz of behind-the-scenes shenanigans, it was hard not to take notice of the "Don't Worry Darling" North American premiere at TIFF and not address it. Were the salacious rumors hitting the industry trades and tabloids more interesting than Olivia Wilde's second film? No. It turns out that the [...]
Movies have an ineffable way of connecting us to the characters on screen, the themes, and the stories that play out. A film can be timeless just as it can remind us of time. Waxing poetically about the film does not address all that film can do. In its affecting ways, film reminds us of [...]
