The Truth is….The Good Liar Rocks
At first glance, “The Good Liar” is a respectable piece of fiction, starring Ian McKellen and Helen Mirren. But underneath everything, the film expertly hones the unpredictability of deceit.
Feather Wars
In the Philippines three on-the-lam teen musicians are swept into the rarefied world of cockfighting as they flee cross-country in a beat-up tricycle one-step ahead of a warped stepfather bent on reclaiming his stolen battle cock. When street performances fail to support their frenzied escape they resort to scamming sabong matches with a scheme adopted from a Mark Twain short story. Comical quibbling over criminal strategies and ethical choices adds spice to the tale as the trio remain true-blue whenever the going get rough. A gritty coming-of-age adventure comedy.
