Peaky Blinders is one of my favorite television series of all time (probably only bested by my obsession with the German show Dark). Peaky Blinders is so full of texture, anti-heroes, and real villains, that the show always keeps you guessing as to where it’s going to go. But better than that? Is the glorious cinematography, […]

So I decided I’d pull together a quick primer on the details that are most important going into the film… both to remind myself what the hell was going on with […]

Back then, I wrote about how Beth Harmon’s fictional story was glorious, and I made sure to mention the real-life player who actually lived a version of that impossible dream: Judit Polgár. Now Netflix has released Queen of Chess, directed by Rory Kennedy, and after watching all 94 minutes, I can tell you this: if you loved The Queen’s […]

I’m not your average movie reviewer. I don’t care how others view movies and I definitely am not swayed by popular films in Hollywood (the current best example is One Battle After Another… I just did not get that movie at all.) At the end of the day, I just want to feel something when watching a movie. And Train Dreams has emotions and depth to it in spades. Clint Bentley’s Train Dreams belongs to this rarest of categories—a […]

There are films that tell stories, and then there are films that create worlds you can literally breathe. Train Dreams (2023) belongs firmly in the latter category. Based on Denis Johnson’s novella, this quiet masterpiece follows Robert Gladd, a day laborer in the early 20th century American West, as he builds railroads, and ultimately just lives a life of profound […]
