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.
The latest documentary from director Amir Bar-Lev (Happy Valley, The Tillman Story) chronicles the 30-year career of the Grateful Dead in a mere 242 minutes. Coming to theaters this month before arriving as a miniseries on Amazon Prime on June 2nd, the film “has the sprawl and generosity of a good Dead show,” according to Variety’s Owen Gleiberman.
