For those who aren't immediately taken with the idea of a film that focuses exclusively on the meeting between two sets of parents whose sons have been involved in a schoolyard fight, Carnage has a number of further sells you'll want to keep in mind. If nothing else, the film is bound to be worth it just to watch Christoph Waltz and John C. Reilly. Certain fans may be equally moved by the … [Read more...]
Mark you calendars for a film that is getting a lot of critical acclaim, and just looks like a great old time. Tilda Swinton and John C. Reilly star in a film about (apparently) an evil child and how a mother deals with... her evil child. Not exactly something that you want to save for that special date next January, but it is getting some buzz. A suspenseful and gripping … [Read more...]
After getting a lot of attention at Sundance this year, Terri is coming your way, and I'm really hoping this is one that won't get lost in the shuffle leading into the big summer titles.
