The Yellow Birds Movie Review: An Inoffensive but Redundant Mess
Gary Shannon June 15, 2018

The Yellow Birds begins with a tranquil image of flowing water, followed by a graceful camera pan over American troops marching cautiously over a war-ravaged Iraqi landscape. It’s an unusually peacefu…

Sundance 2018 Review: Hearts Beat Loud
Yasmin Kleinbart January 26, 2018

Everyone knows Nick Offerman as the ultra-manly, wood-chopping Ron Swanson from Parks & Recreation. But now that the mustache is off, Offerman has taken on more grounded roles that let him expand …

Sundance 2018 Review: I Think We’re Alone Now
Katey Stoetzel January 25, 2018

I Think We’re Alone Now is a beautiful film. It hits all the apocalypse tropes, but it’s more concerned about the people who are left than why everyone else is gone. Director Reed Morano a…

Sundance 2018 Review: Lizzie
Yasmin Kleinbart January 21, 2018

Everyone knows one thing about Lizzie Borden: she brutally murdered her parents with an ax. And while it may not have been 40 whacks, but it was enough to make her parents look unrecognizable. While m…
