Talking with Jeremy Saulnier of ‘GREEN ROOM’

Talking with Jeremy Saulnier of ‘GREEN ROOM’

Jeremy Saulnier emerged from the shadows last year with his not-quite-cult independent smash Blue Ruin.

Out in Theaters: ‘DEMOLITION’

Out in Theaters: ‘DEMOLITION’

Led by soaring performances from Gyllenhaal and Watts and an emotionally exploratory script from Bryan Sipe, 'Demolition' is an oddball destructo-drama that measures the invoice of grief against the constructs…

REVIEW
Out in Theaters: ‘EVERYBODY WANTS SOME!!’

Out in Theaters: ‘EVERYBODY WANTS SOME!!’

In the pantheon of Richard Linklater’s accomplished filmography, Everybody Wants Some is a relative softball, but even his minor work is essential viewing. A laid-back daydream of primetime golden years…
