Eternity has its flaws, but it overcomes them by being a funny, imaginative, and heartfelt journey to the afterlife. Read Kevin Jones' thoughts on Eternity below:
Eternity ★★★
Larry (Barry Primus) and Joan (Betty Buckley) are on their way to a gender reveal party for one of their grandchildren, an event that has the couple who have spent 65 years together bickering. Larry does not see the point in such a party, while Joan laments that he just “enjoys being miserable.” By the time they get there, they are focused on celebrating the occasion and concealing Joan’s terminal cancer diagnosis, as she hopes for just one more family event where her health is not the focus.

Shai Carmeli-Pollak's The Sea is a patient film about a young Palestinian boy determined to go to the sea, building to a heightened conclusion. Read Lida Bach's Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival review of The Sea below:
The Sea ★★★
For a film among those which prominently provoked Israel’s culture minister Miki Zohar to threaten that he would cut off all funding for the Ophir Awards, Shai Carmeli‑Pollak's meandering drama The Sea takes on a surprisingly tender, occasionally even lighthearted tone. It’s only in the final moments that the minimalist story about a young Palestinian boy determined to go to the sea reveals its devastating outlook and parabolic power.

I wrestled with #DieMyLove. It is not an easy film to appreciate. At times, I hated it. But, I came all the way around to being moved and enthralled by what Lynne Ramsay had done. My review for @cineccentric.bsky.social: #FilmSky
Die My Love ★★★
Die My Love is challenging. Director Lynne Ramsay fine tunes every element of this production to be as agitating as possible, dropping the viewer into the mindset of a woman such as Grace (Jennifer…

James Vanderbilt's Nuremberg is expectedly overt in its intentions, but does offer captivating performances by Rami Malek & Russell Crowe. Read Kevin Jones' review of Nuremberg below:
Nuremberg ★★
There have been many films and miniseries about the trials at Nuremberg, most notably the excellent 1961 film Judgment at Nuremberg directed by Stanley Kramer. However, writer and director James Vanderbilt takes a unique approach with Nuremberg. Adapted from the novel The Nazi and the Psychiatrist by Jack El-Hai, it expectedly follows the trials though also follows the work of psychiatrist Douglas Kelley (

Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein offers a humanist take on the famous story while tapping into del Toro's fascination with monsters. Read Alex Sitaras' review of the film below:
Frankenstein ★★★½
Like Pinocchio before it, Frankenstein sees Guillermo del Toro adapting a classic 19th century story, this time tapping into del Toro’s fascination with monsters. A film spending almost two decades in development, Frankenstein is a long-awaited and aspirational film for del Toro. Eager to capture the tragedy and internal turmoil that The Creature (Jacob Elordi) faced, del Toro sets his adaptation of…

David Michôd’s Christy packs a punch. Unflinching and often brutal, Christy tells the life story of Christy Martin (Sydney Sweeney). Born in West Virginia in a conservative and religious small-town, Christy is a lesbian in a place where that is simply not an option. She is also a rough…
Christy ★★½
David Michôd’s Christy packs a punch. Unflinching and often brutal, Christy tells the life story of Christy Martin (Sydney Sweeney). Born in West Virginia in a conservative and religious small-town, Christy is a lesbian in a place where that is simply not an option. She is also a rough and tumble young woman, fighting on the basketball court and eventually making a name for herself in amateur boxing events.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email
