It's true that there are three days left in March but we're recapping early because we're willing the month to end. The point is that March is always a bit slow at TFE given the post Oscar-crashing and then the malaise that hits. But we do what we can. Expect much more in April now that we're getting back on the dance floor. Here are a dozen highlights from the month that is almost up that we hope you didn't miss.
• Us Reviewed - Jordan Peele does it again
• Jennifer Jones Centennial - because Love is a Many Splendored Thing
• Once Upon a Time in Hollywood - what a tease
• Shrill with Aidy Bryant - already one of 2019's best TV shows
• Four Weddings and a Funeral - still nearly perfect on its 25th anniversary
• Tea with the Dames - Judi + Maggie + Joan + Eileen = a soothing streaming distraction
• Posterized: Julianne Moore - because the ginger goddess is on fire again
• Soundtracking: Gloria Bell - spin with joyful Julianne
• Doc Corner: Leaving Neverland - sure got people talking
• Nathaniel's 2018 Top Ten List - the Film Bitch Awards wrap-up
• Christian Petzold talks Transit - his haunting German melodrama
• Stage Door: Kiss Me Kate - Kelli O'Hara delights again
