If you are a lover of art, especially abstract art, you must see Beyond The Visible – Hilma af Klint. You’ll be blown away by af Klint’s genius and how ahead of her time she really was.

Overall I would say that Travis Scott: Look Mom I Can Fly is an incredibly wholesome, feel-good film that shows us that hard work and determination really can bring you grand success in some cases.

Non-Fiction is incredibly witty, fast-paced, and unmistakably French.

The Nowhere Inn deeply explores the dynamic between performer and audience and performer with self. It does so in a way I’ve never seen before. It has so many layers that at some point, you get lost in the thick of it, but in a good way.

It is leaps and bounds above the average boring status quo comedies, and it is exceptionally well-crafted.

It should be memorable for fans of thrillers, especially for those of the home invasion variety.

Insofar as low-budget horror goes, The Edge of Isolation is successful at exploring its subject matter without becoming to cheesy or hackneyed. The acting and writing are good, as well as the score and cinematography. I think Houkal, who is also a prolific actor, has a good career ahead of him as a filmmaker.

The performances are inspired.

Days of The Whale is a quiet, beautiful coming of age story.

The cool thing about this film is that instead of the normal talking heads and formulaic path of the typical biographical documentary, we are shown photos and films from Wyman’s personal archive, which is one of the most impressive things I’ve ever seen.

The documentary is made for big Dio fans and burgeoning metalheads. They’ll love it and maybe you will too.

This film is filled with bursts of color. The high energy visuals counterbalance the tragic malaise of Goldie’s life perfectly.

The film is quite funny and very well written by writer/director Morgan Ignari.

If you like quiet, meditative supernatural thrillers, you will ultimately enjoy The Wind quite a bit.

The Fight is a fantastic documentary highlighting the real heroes out there: the overworked attornies of the ACLU.

It’s a darkly funny allegory about technology with awesome practical gore.

What She Said: The Art of Pauline Kael is a wonderful visitation of the famed critic’s life. It’s also a great place to start if you know nothing about her.

This film shows us that it is okay. We can survive. We can even thrive, and certainly, we can get by with a little help from our friends.

If you want to discover (or get to know more about) a unique man who is as wildly talented as much as he tries to say otherwise, please watch The Times Of Bill Cunningham.

There’s something for everyone in Amazing Grace. I would definitely recommend checking this out if you’re a fan of concert docs, or of the queen of soul. Even if you’re none of those things, it’s an interesting historical document, so give it a go!

Beast Beast captures the high school experience like lightning in a bottle.

Writer/director, Kaveh Nabatian, is an excellent storyteller. It’s very easy to get wrapped up in the beautiful musical world of dance, love, and heartache that is Sin La Habana. It’s a world definitely worth exploring.

The movie is well-written by Garrel, Carriere, and Langmann. Cinematographer Renato Berta makes the atmosphere in all of its beautiful simplicity. The acting is fantastic.

Nomadland is a wonderful exploratory mission into real American life.

The movie is a shared experience between a mother and daughter that could tread into the undeniably cheesy or depressing territory but has a tattered joy to it. It’s a low-budget slice of life, which we don’t see too many of these days.

The film is truly gorgeous and interesting for fans of literature.

There’s a lot of emotional and intellectual material that writer/director Josephine Mackerras grapples with in Alice, and she is quite successful in doing so.

Maya Erskine is hilarious, which is no surprise, given how funny she is on Hulu’s Pen15.
