The End of the Tour

Observant, probing, poignant, and thought-provoking, The End of the Tour is a hipster road trip bromance that addresses perplexing themes for our times; a wise and wacky cautionary tale about a cultural titan and the reporter trailing in his wake; and an illuminating exposé about the nebulous relationship between interviewer and subject. Wonderfully performed and filled with dexterous repartee, it’s a true Sundance gem.

Night Moves

Clean, crackling, tensile, and mesmerically assured, Night Moves is a richly engrossing drama that’s aiming for the head, not the gut; a study of murky actions, fuzzy ideals, and wrong decisions for righteous reasons, offering more than what we expect and taking its time to deliver. It’s a cunning, if thin, piece of storytelling.

The Double

Pitiless, wickedly clever, and occasionally fascinating, The Double is a cheeky take on Dostoevsky’s 1846 story of a milquetoast clerk who comes face-to-face with a cocky, manipulative jackass who looks just like him.

The Social Network

Cocksure, impatient, instinctively perceptive, and blisteringly entertaining, The Social Network is a quintessential American story of capitalism and greed, fueled by envy and lost innocence, packed with irascible incident and hard-hitting performances.
