“BlackBerry”
An entertaining look at contemporary history and the rise and fall of a revolutionary gadget that changed the world forever.
“This Much We Know”
A hybrid documentary that gives a smart and thoughtful look at the ways humans attempt to process and understand traumatic events.
“Killers of the Flower Moon”
In a story and film that should be incredibly diverse, it disappointingly turns into one that’s dominated by white men.
“Butcher’s Crossing”
An American Western about a world of unchecked male ambition, aggression, obsession, horror, and the obliteration of the buffalo.
“Bark”
