DUNE: PART TWO Review: Still Handsome. Still Obligatory. Stilgar.
If it does nothing else, Dune: Part Two completes the circle of the Fatboy Slim-Arrakis EU. By opening with Christopher Walken’s Emperor Of The Known Universe, this might just be the quirkiest, and most unexpectedly sly, thing about the...

THE SLEEPER MUST AWAKEN: MAKING DUNE Exclusive Clip

Review: THE FRENCH DISPATCH, Delightful, Wonderful Ode to Mid-Century Journalism
To call Wes Anderson (Isle of Dogs, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Moonrise Kingdom, The Royal Tenenbaums) an auteurist filmmaker with a singular, uncompromising vision doesn’t come close to describing the moment-by-moment, shot-by-shot experience of sitting through one of Wes Anderson's...

Toronto 2021 Review: DUNE, A Handsome, But Stoic, Do Over
There is a row of palm trees in front of the outer wall of the capital city of Arrakis, the desert planet also known as Dune. They require massive amounts of resources, and have grown straight & tall, tended by...
DUNE Trailer Fleshes Out the Story
The new (and maybe final?) trailer for Dune has dropped, this time revealing a lot more of the plot, for those who might be unfamiliar. And I'm guessing that who the studio is trying to attract; they know fans of...
Friday One Sheet: THE (Animated) FRENCH DISPATCH
It has been over a year since The French Dispatch (of the Liberty, Kansas Evening Star) was to premiere at the 2020 Cannes Film Festival. After numerous date changes and the typical COVID release dance seen for major titles, the...
Friday One Sheet: THE FRENCH DISPATCH
The French Dispatch of The Liberty, Kansas Evening Sun, has this piece of delightful Wes Anderson clutter (in title and design) slash dollhouse-diorama as its first piece of key art. What has become the norm for the filmmaker, is to...
Trailer: BEAUTIFUL BOY Offers Earnestness and Tragedy
Belgian director Felix van Groeningen is deeply interested in chronicling the emotional lay-of-the-land of 'downfall.' From his comedic family comedy-drama The Misfortunates, to the death of a small child for a pair of firebrand Bluegrass musicians in The Broken Circle...
Sundance 2017 Review: CALL ME BY YOUR NAME Feels Both Fresh and Vintage
The word “sumptuous” doesn’t get bandied about very much during Sundance when describing films. In the land of ice and snow, things are either “quirky”, “dramadies” or “depressing as shit”, but they’re seldom languid, or bucolic. Perhaps that’s what elevated...
