Sexy, Female Empowering French/Polish film:

Elles

Deserves to get more recognition than it will likely ever receive:

Sons of Norway

I want the old Cronenberg back:

A Dangerous Method

A good way to bum yourself out for the rest of the day, with a gripping, moving and traumatic piece of cinema:

Martha Marcy May Marlene

Cut it down to a healthy 105 minutes, then we’ll talk:

Himizu

(note: though it was some of the most gorgeous RED footage I’ve ever seen)

See Selma Hayek almost completely naked, be underwhelmed for the rest of the film:

Americano

Hide from people you know so they don’t see your yucky crying face:

The Descendants

Make the most boring sport into a gripping underdog drama, mostly because Sorkin is King:

Moneyball

Disturbing, eye-opening, try-and-get-out-of-my-brain-because-I-need-sleep kind of film:

Into the Abyss

(note: live yer dash)

Just can’t get into Geoffrey Fletcher’s writing, Saoirse Ronan is now typecast as a teen assassin (??), James Gandolfini was and always is the best part:

Violet & Daisy

Beautiful trip across the world, projected in delightful 4K:

Samsara
