14 Films to See in May
Hollywood's summer movie season officially kicks off in May, and that means the arrival of big-budget fare such as a Guardians of the Galaxy sequel and Ridley Scott's latest Alien scarefest. But you can also expect a number of promising indie films, including some recent film festival favorites, timely documentaries about Syria, Julian Assange, and a key Trump advisor, and Amber Tamblyn's well-reviewed directorial debut. Get the details on the month's most intriguing films below.
Amber Tamblyn’s directorial debut is an adaptation of a Janet Finch novel about Josie (Alia Shawkat) and her struggle to come to terms with the death of her lover, Michael. In her search to understand his death, she forms a twisted relationship with his mother, Meredith (Janet McTeer). Alfred Molina, Emily Rios, Annabelle Attanasio, John Roberts, and Rhys Wakefield also star in this well-reviewed indie.
