SHOWING UP


“Funny in such a reserved, bone-dry fashion that half the audience will probably spend the movie wondering what the rest of us are laughing at. This is an expertly conducted symphony of passive-aggression, a portrait of a milieu where everyone fancies themselves too tolerant and enlightened to admit how exasperated they are with each other.” – WBUR’s Arts & Culture, 04/13/2023

TORI AND LOKITA


“For nearly thirty years, the Dardennes have been telling stories about characters struggling on the margins. When you’re desperate and poor, life takes place in the present tense, and so the films move from one immediate obstacle to another. Occasionally, there is a fleeting moment of grace; an unexpected act of tenderness. Or in this case, a song.” – North Shore Movies, 04/07/2023

AIR


“Enormously entertaining and maybe just a little bit evil, Ben Affleck’s Air is about how a humble $100 million corporation became a behemoth worth billions, a miracle of marketing the film treats as a triumph of the human spirit. This anatomy of a celebrity endorsement is an underdog sports movie without the sports. And without the underdogs.” – WBUR’s Arts & Culture, 04/04/2023
