The Farewell (Lulu Wang)
I stand by what I said when I first saw this lovely beautiful ode to family and the power grandparents have over us. FULL REVIEW HERE.
Hustlers (Lorene Scafaria)
Lorene Scafaria is a badass boss lady. She has been since her first film. She will continue to be after Hustlers. Hustlers shows why so many film critics love her work. This is a film that can play at the game that similar male-centric films aim at. The only thing is… Hustlers does it better. So, much fucking better than any of the wannabe Scorsese disciples films. Why? Scafaria is a better filmmaker than all of them. Yes. I said it. All. Of. Them.
The Irishman (Martin Scorsese)
This isn’t a gangster film. This is about meeting the loneliness of aging and death. Martin Scorsese has made a film that’s more Bergman than Scorsese. Those that call this one slow or boring or any of the nomenclature that we’ve used for ADHD attention spans are not ready for what Scorsese is dishing up. B-MOVIE PODCAST EPISODE 1 AND EPISODE 2 ABOUT THE IRISHMAN.
