'Blue Beetle': Family over Fanfare
'Blue Beetle' is another solid addition to the superhero film canon.
After Us, the Flood
Unmistakably French in its melancholy, this treatment of an apocalyptic subject (the film takes place after some kind of global disaster) takes La Jetée as its primary reference. Like Chris Marker, Félix Fattal builds a dynamic story from static images in Après nous, le déluge. The near-total lack of movement encourages the viewer to look into the texture of the imagery itself, lending it a haptic quality.

Why "The Birdcage" is Still Worth Celebrating 25 Years Later
Perhaps the most amazing and groundbreaking quality about The Birdcage is how removed it is from both illness and insensitivity. Whereas films preceding it were often somber stories about the tribulations of being gay in a conservatively straight world, Nichols and screenwriter Elaine May expose the fallacies of conservatism as traditional values are thrown into a more open-minded space. They don’t care how far the community has fallen so much as how high they can rebuild themselves.
