Opening in theaters this week are All We Had, Frank & Lola, Harry Benson: Shoot First, Contract To Kill and more. We compiled the info & trailers.
Strangers on a Train is one of Hitchc*ck’s famous works – using only camera techniques and visuals, it successfully conveys a chilling story, and achieves its horror with less than blood and creepy props.
Disney’s latest film, Moana is sure to please crowds, but it plays it safe by recycling a story that has been told to exhaustion.
Wilson is an R-rated comedy and comic book adaptation directed by Craig Johnson, starring Woody Harrelson as the titular character.

As we always do at the start of each month, we look back on the great articles we published the month before. In November we published over 70 interesting, in-depth features, reviews and a bunch of interviews. Here are our favourites!
With Allied, yet another volume has been added to the overflowing pile of wartime films. Though with the talented Robert Zemeckis at the helm, it seldom showcases his trademark focused and proficient direction, which is therefore not enough to raise the film above its many aching flaws.
Silence is Martin Scorsese’s upcoming religious drama set in the 17th century, in which two Jesuit priests (Andrew Garfield & Adam Driver) travel to Japan to find their lost mentor (Liam Neeson).
For her talent and contribution to film alone, Crawford deserves a better legacy than what she ultimately received. By all accounts, she achieved her success through hard work, determination, and innate intelligence.
Cinefemme gathered another group of inspiring female filmmakers, writers and content creators for the third iteration of Dinner With Dames, to dine with Elvia Van Es, Vice President of Development for TLC.
Fantastic Beasts is a mostly satisfactory return to the world of Harry Potter, though it also suffers from confused and muddled plot-lines.
Dane DeHaan’s character will get more than he bargained for at the medical castle of A Cure For Wellness, and whether that causes a slick descent or a more methodical breakdown, the path does look intriguingly striking.
In Our “Nominated Film You May Have Missed”, we reflect on films that received Oscar nominations in the past, but have been forgotten, or little seen. Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is a classic, delving into themes of patriotism, government corruption, and the power of democracy.
Graduation, Mungiu’s fourth film as director, is yet another example of how he masterfully weaves an intimate character drama into an intelligent commentary on injustices in Romanian society.
Frank & Lola is the upcoming feature debut of Matthew Ross, starring Michael Shannon & Imogen Poots in a “psychosexual noir love story”.
