    Colonia
    Rather than a grand buildup, Colonia just gives the sense of one thing happening, and then another thing happening.

    Hockney
    Hockney is a little work of art of its own, even if it's so very nice and happy about everything.

    Echo Park
    Echo Park doesn't circumvent expectations, but it's worth a watch for those small moments of two humans relating to each other on a realistic plane. Just don't expect to learn anything about Echo Park, its residents, or how people deal with gentrification.

    Not a Pretty Picture
    What’s most unnerving about this four-decade-old film is how little has changed in the time since. We are still learning the same lessons Coolidge was trying to impart so long ago — nothing is different.

    Night of the Living Dead
    Up until 1968, horror had been escapist. But Night of the Living Dead made horror serious business.

    The Icarus Line Must Die
    If there are any takeaways from Grodner’s film, it’s that we are all powerless to stop the passage of time, and, as Future Music owner Jack Waterson says, “Be truly loved or truly hated, man, cuz anything in the middle is garbage.” I think you’ll truly love or truly hate this film, but I’m firmly in the “love” camp for this remarkable Los Angeles time capsule.
