Holy shit can Cory Finley make a movie.
In an alternate universe where I didn’t seek out Thoroughbreds or somehow didn’t love it as much as I do, it’s comforting to know that I would have become a fan of Finley either way.

I would like to wish a pre-emptive congratulations to Jennifer Lawrence for her Academy Award winning performance as Elizabeth Holmes.
This is a Three Identical Strangers kind of what-the-fuck documentary you just have to see to believe.

Someone had better throw a few bags of money at Sorkin to write this, because it could seriously be his next masterpiece. I’ll settle for Adam McKay if I must.
Grade: 9.5/10

The Cable Guy is the first of a few Jim Carrey movies that grapple with distorted reality. Where it's put upon someone in The Truman Show, here it's a byproduct of neglect. The cable guy says it himself, "I was taught the facts of…

Wow. Loved this! Kevin Kline gives an all time great performance of an all time great character.
The kind of movie I’m mad at myself for not seeing sooner.

Charming, fun, Hanks is a delight etc.
Probably the funniest thing about this is there’s a harrowing child abduction drama that’s shoved to the background.
