This review was originally part of our 2022 Toronto International Film Festival coverage. Mia Hansen-Løvehas a way of making even the most introspective, quiet stories feel grandiose. Take, for example, last year’sBergman Island, in which a pair of writers going on a working vacation became an expansive look at storytelling, great directors, and gender roles—all in a film that one of the best from 2021. Hansen-Løve’s latest,One Fine Morning, is significantly smaller than even her previous film, yet the powerful emotions and heartbreak makeOne Fine Morningjust as awe-inspiring and striking....

[Note: This is our re-post of our review ofPatersonfrom the Cannes Film Festival;the film enters limited release December 28] Anticipation was high forJim Jarmusch’s follow up toOnly Lovers Left Alive, and though it feels very different than any of the auteur’s previous films,Patersondoes not disappoint. Come its December release date it will feel like a cozy cup of tea. Paterson (Adam Driver) was named after his birthplace, Paterson, New Jersey, where he still lives....

If you haven’t seenPicnic at Hanging Rockand are curious, don’t let the gauzy Edwardian setting fool you: it’s a deeply haunting story. The Australian classic, originally released in 1975, was directed byPeter Weirand based on the novel byJoan Lindsay. The fictional story follows a group of boarding school girls who go on a picnic with their teacher on Valentine’s Day in 1900, and then disappear. The film then details the fallout at the school and in the community following the disappearance, and what could have happened....

[Spider-Man: Homecomingis now in theaters. In case you missed it, here’s my review from last week.] Spider-Man: Homecomingpresents the third solo iteration of Spider-Man in the last 15 years, but it’s arguably the best one yet. WhileSam Raimi’s movies have their merits, and the less said aboutThe Amazing Spider-Manfilms the better,Homecomingtakes Peter Parker in a fresh direction not only by making him a teenager (and actually investing in that world rather than using it as a backdrop), but by letting him runtowardsbeing Spider-Man rather than wrestle with the weight of his responsibilities....

Fans of The CW’s Arrowverse shouldn’t hold their breath waiting forStephen Amellto return to the network’s stable of DC superhero shows anytime soon. During a recent Instagram livestream with fans (as reported by EW), Amell was asked if he’d ever consider guest-starring as Oliver Queen in the future, and he very kindly shot that idea out of the sky like his character’s alter ego. “No, I’m done,” he said. “That was good....

For academic and historian Diana Bishop (Teresa Palmer), who also happens to be a witch that’s denying her magical abilities, the discovery of an ancient manuscript not only brings on an awareness of this dangerous and scary world, but it places her directly into the path of geneticist and vampire Matthew Clairmont (Matthew Goode), igniting a relationship between them that threatens to unravel the fragile peace between the creatures and destroy them all....

A lot of filmmakers like to say you write a film three times: Once in the script phase, once in the production phase, and once in the post-production phase. The latter is where everything comes together, and it’s also where major structural changes to the film can take place. While this is fascinating on any film of note, it’s particularly interesting when it comes toStar Wars: The Last Jedi, the longestStar Warsfilm in history and yet on in which every scene is important to the plot, character development, or theme....
