Movie Review: 'Dogs' From Director Bogdan Mirica
Dogs found fame at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival but is only finding an American release now via Dekanalog. This crime thriller about an outsider who comes to a small village following the death of his Uncle only to find trouble with his Uncle’s former gang of violent criminals is a stark and striking first feature from director Bogdan Mirca. Dogs is unrelentingly sparse and dry but the visceral impact of the action is as great as any big budget American thriller

Documentary Review: 'The Capote Tapes'
When it comes to Truman Capote it’s fair to wonder if there is anything new to learn about the man. Capote’s life and work have been explored in books, television series, documentaries and even a pair of biographical films released within a year of each other, Capote starring Phillip Seymour Hoffman in 2005 and Infamous starring Toby Jones, released in 2006. More recently a stage play and documentary was made regarding Capote’s friendship with Tennessee Williams, a fellow tempestuous writer with a lengthy and well documented history.

Movie Review: 'Ema' From Director Pablo Larrain
Director Pablo Lorrain is stepping onto the world stage this awards season thanks to his biopic on Princess Diana titled, Spencer. And while star Kristen Stewart is getting most of the publicity for her reportedly uncanny performance as Princess Di, Pablo Larrain has me excited about his career and where he’s headed. Not just because I have heard great things about Spencer but rather because I have seen and been blown away by Lorrain’s remarkable 2019 feature, Ema, a shocking, provocative and exhilarating film.

Documentary Review: 'The Meaning of Hitler'
In less than a decade firsthand accounts of the holocaust, the most horrific and terrifying crime in human history, will be gone. Those who were there when Hitler murdered six million Jewish people now on average are in their 80s and 90s. They are sadly not long for this world and the history they take with them in their passing is some of the most important historical events in our collective history.
