'The Artist's Wife': Film Review

Todd McCarthy At the time, in November 1970, it must have seemed like an ideal match, a meeting of renegade titans: Orson Welles, the long-ago boy genius of theater and films who never got a job directing in Hollywood after 1958, and Dennis Hopper, whose out-of-nowhere smash with Easy Rider in 1969 made him the boy wonder of the hippie age and ostensible leader of a new wave of counterculture movies.Just as Welles had cratered from a Hollywood-career perspective, Hopper hit the rocks with his

Some movies feature a training montage in which the star is seen flexing his muscles or honing his firearm skills in preparation for a big battle. There's no such need for that in the latest Liam Neeson vehicle.

After a successful job, Tom rents a locker at a Boston storage facility, where he’s immediately smitten with clerk Annie (Kate Walsh), a grad student.

American Pie debuted when I was in fifth grade, and like Blink-182 and South Park before it, the high school sex comedy quickly ascended to the pantheon of raunchy, outrageous and forbidden content that was immediately gobbled up and then regurgitated ad nauseum by every tween in my elementary school.

The deadly perils of music academies are a somewhat recurring horror-movie trope. Witness Black Swan, Suspiria and its overlong 2018 remake, the recent gore-fest The Perfection (better known as "that Netflix vomit movie") and even the jazzy Whiplash, which is more of a thriller than a horror flick but still features lots of psychological terror and bodily harm.

Amazon corporate synergy pays off in Evil Eye, a suspenseful thriller adapted by playwright Madhuri Shekar from her audio drama, which was a hit for the streaming giant's Audible platform of spoken-word entertainment. This new iteration fits smoothly into Welcome to the Blumhouse, a series of original genre films by culturally diverse emerging talents, in this case marking a confident feature co-directing debut for Indian American twin brothers Elan and Rajeev Dassani.

There are undoubtedly superfans out there who think otherwise, but not every film from the Pixar Studio is perfect. Some fall on the spectrum somewhere between merely adequate and fitfully delightful (like the last, the sweet but underwhelming Onward, or the okay but entirely unnecessary Toy Story 4).

Playing a 65-year-old New York high-society widow who burns through her savings and moves to Paris with her son in Azazel Jacobs'French Exit, Michelle Pfeiffer sucks the juice from each line like a Louisianan devouring a crawfish. It's a full-on diva turn — a smorgasbord of side-eye and shade, of lacerating one-liners dispatched between drags on cigarettes and slurps of martinis.

Joe Utichi Editor, AwardsLineThere are moments, watching Disney-Pixar’s latest release Soul, in which the ambition of the Emeryville-based animation house astounds in ways it hasn’t quite achieved in years. Moments of abstract expression that feel entirely unique to its new film, and yet wholly in keeping with the DNA that has made Pixar the standard bearer for family animation.

Take The Wizard of Oz, add a touch of Up, a splash of Frozen and toss well with the cultural specificity of a Coco and you’ll get a reasonable facsimile of Over the Moon, a CG-animated musical fantasy that still manages to infuse sufficient charm and genuine warmth into the inescapable familiarity.

The last time Oscar winners Robert De Niro and Christopher Walken appeared together onscreen, they were playing a tragic game of Russian roulette in the classic 1978 film The Deer Hunter. Reunited for the first time in 42 years in the family comedy The War with Grandpa, they play dodgeball…on trampolines.

It shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that Mark Consuelos went all lovey dovey about his gal Kelly Ripa given how often he gushes about her in real life and on television. The Riverdale star kept up with that tradition during his 50th birthday dedication for her on October 2.

For a movie about a lepidopterist, The Dark Divide is awfully entertaining. (There will now be a brief pause while you look up the word "lepidopterist.") Now that you know the term refers to people who study butterflies and moths, we can continue this review of this film based on nature writer Robert Pyle's book Where Bigfoot Walks: Crossing the Dark Divide.
