With November nearly upon us I'd like to ask that everyone take a moment to vote. Netflix is a great escape, but we live a real country where our voices matter. Use your voice. And then reward yourself with a little downtime.
Krisha
"Krisha" sees a mother reuniting with her family, including the son she abandoned, after years lost to addiction. Some members of the extended family are prepared to welcome her back. Others refuse to believe that she's changed. Let the Thanksgiving festivities begin. "Krisha" was the debut feature from Trey Edward Shults who went on to direct "It Comes at Night" and "Waves."
Green Room
Director Jeremy Saulnier followed up on the success of "Blue Ruin" with this vicious masterpiece about a punk band that finds themselves trapped in the green room of a remote concert venue run by white supremacists. Anton Yelchin, Imogen Poots, Alia Shawkat, and Patrick Stewart offer tremendous performances. (Leaving 11/11/20)
Drive
Nicolas Winding Refn's "Drive" owes a debt to the films of Michael Mann. That doesn't make Refn's film and less enjoyable. Ryan Gosling stars as a mechanic, stuntman and getaway driver who falls for his neighbor (Carey Mulligan) who is struggling to raise her small child while her husband is serving time in prison. He's not quick enough to outrun his past. (Leaving 11/15/20)
West Side Story
Steven Spielberg's adaptation of the Broadway musical "West Side Story" is set to hit theaters in December of 2021. In the meantime, I highly recommend checking out the 1961 version that Jerome Robbins and Robert Wise made. The story is essentially a streetwise adaptation of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" with songs provided by the iconic duo of Leonard Bernstein and lyricist Stephen Sondheim. (Leaving 11/30/20)
Y Tu Mamá También
Alfonso Cuarón's "Y Tu Mamá También" sees a pair of college-bound teens (Diego Luna and Gael García Bernal)try to impress Luisa (Maribel Verdú) the beautiful wife of a relative at a wedding. They boast of a unplanned road trip to the fictitious la Boca del Cielo beach and ask her come along . Frustrated by her husband's infidelity, Luisa takes the teens up on their offer.
