Saturday, October 29, 2016 at 9:00AM In this week's collection of amusing tweets, we gaze at Cate Blanchett, Best Actress shenanigans, Hugh Jackman's veins, Hillary Clinton as musical star, Doctor Strangé (that's what I'm calling it for fun), and more...

Mike Mill's terrific new film 20th Century Women, inspired by his own mother with Annette Bening further fictionalizing her, doesn't open until Christmas (disappointing as RIGHT NOW or August might've been the perfect time for it). But since it played the NYFF and we said so little, it's time to attempt to share the joy it offers. In lieu of a standard review...

first impressions of a film that will surely make our 2016 top ten list
Friday, October 14, 2016 at 7:00PM Murtada reporting from NYFF.
Thursday night marked the first New York public screening of Jackie. Pablo Larraín’s film about the former first lady in the few days after JFK’s assassination, took Venice and TIFF by storm and now it's NYFF’s turn...
