One of my favorite movies of the year-slash-decade is now in theaters — and this really is a see-it-in-theater-if-you-can experience. You'll be blown away by Joel Edgerton and emotionally bowled over no matter what, though. (Hits Netflix 11/21)

'Train Dreams' Is a Tribute to the Men Who Built America
Anchored by a career-high performance from Joel Edgerton, this tale of a railroad laborer who experiences love and tragedy is a modest masterpiece.

I wrote about The Running Man, which is smarter and funnier than the original but—and I think this might be the first time I’ve ever said this—doesn’t hate its audience enough.

"Die My Love" is an electric portrait of feminine rage, sorrow, and mania that's energized by the finest performance of Jennifer Lawrence's career.

I wrote about Springsteen, Shakespeare, and the right (and wrong) way to illustrate the mystery of creation.
Two Oscar Hopefuls Show the Supposed Stories Behind Artistic Masterpieces. Only One Is Persuasive.
How does creativity work? New movies about Springsteen and Shakespeare come up with very different answers.

One of the signature actresses of her or any era, and a woman who paved a path most Hollywood actresses -haven't- followed: dressing to express joy and a sense of self. On Diane Keaton: time.com/7325208/dian...
The Astonishing Versatility of Diane Keaton
Keaton, who died at 79, is often remembered for her comedic performance in Annie Hall, but she did so much more throughout her career.

The headline slightly overstates the case--I neither know whether Bugonia will get Oscar noms, nor did I *totally* hate it--but yeah, Yorgos Lanthimos' claustrophobic black comedy about a low-wage worker who kidnaps & tortures his Big Pharma boss was definitely not my bag.

Emma Stone is phenomenal in the new movie from the auteur behind Poor Things. Too bad about that ending.

David Lynch Was the Great, Golly-Gee Chronicler of American Darkness
Lynch, who died today at 78, combined Eisenhower-era innocence and experimental cinema to forge a disturbing, darkly hilarious look at American life.
