The Silence of Mark Rothko (Icarus Films, NR)
While Boonstra’s film is not at all silent, it is certainly still, with a deliberate pace that invites you to slip into a meditative mood.
Home Viewing
The Next Big Thing (Icarus Films, NR)
The art world won’t necessarily seem less strange after viewing Frank van den Engel’s documentary.
I, Anna (Icarus Films, NR)
Rampling was the main reason I wanted to see I, Anna, and she’s marvelous in it. Unfortunately, the rest of the movie is not nearly as good.
A French Village, Season 3 (MHZ Entertainment, NR)
There are no easy answers in A French Village.
Elstree 1976 (FilmRise, NR)
The film would be more successful if it were trimmed down to 20 minutes.
Amateur Night at City Hall (MVD Entertainment Group, NR)
It often feels more like an exercise than a planned film.
Ray Harryhausen: Special Effects Titan (Arrow Video, NR)
Don’t come looking for criticism in this film.
Orange Is the New Black | Season 4
A comedy of errors ensues from this rescue, because the hitman is killed and—you guessed it—a burying of the body must occur.
Gold (Kino Lorbor, NR)
It has more in common with the films put out before the Third Reich and makes a serious effort to entangle itself with Metropolis specifically.
The Magnetic Monster (Kino Lorber, NR)
It’s an entertaining film and has held up better than the many “rubber monster” films of the period.
