The Salesman validates my love of movies by bringing to the screen a slice-of-life at once prosaic and yet theatrical, and insanely thrilling. It’s also familiar to a Western audience, though set in Iran. Yeah, it’s an Iranian movie, making it utterly fascinating to Westerners like me who are i…

Cute kids turn into real rockers under Jack Black’s masterful tutelage in this classic movie about classic rock. Still funny the third time through, School of Rock charms, tickles and – most importantly – rocks. In the classic words of The School of Rock’s nutty professor – "It’s a toast to…

Much of the commentary in The Social Dilemma goes to stupid extremes, yet this Netflix produced docudrama is packed with powerful insights. Vividly visualized, expounded upon and dramatized, it vivifies the effect that YouTwitFace has on people. It goes wrong when it goes political, falling pre… |

The Station Agent can be thought of as a little movie about a little man, but should be thought of as a perceptive movie about a dignified man who rises well above his miniature stature. Peter Dinklage plays that man, all 4’ 5" of him, the movie being a study of how a dwarf makes his way in an …
