In 'Ammonite,' an Aching and Incomplete Love Story
Kate Winslet and Saorise Ronan deliver stellar performances in a film that doesn't live up to its potential.
Lesson LXXV
In this endless, silent loop, Martine Syms is seen in three-quarter profile against a plain black background. Framed from the chest up, wearing a brown t-shirt and with braided hair, the artist can be seen covered in milk. We see how it has poured down Syms’s face, hairline, braids, and torso. Its thick residue covering her clothes and skin. In the time it takes to draw breath and blink, the scene is looped, the only other sign of movement are the drips from her chin that fall and then repeat in a cycle that seemingly defies gravity. This powerful, almost still image reminds us that milk is often used by protestors to relieve the painful effects of tear gas.

Honey Don’t!: A Messy Queer but Mischievous Comedy
Honey Don't! is a chaotic queer noir that's part detective story, part midnight movie madness. Margaret Qualley is fantastic as the wise-cracking private eye Honey, with Aubrey Plaza and Chris Evans adding their own dry humor to the mix. The mystery itself is pretty loose, but the film makes up for it with crackling sexual tension, weird side characters, and razor-sharp dialogue. It's messy and uneven, but in the best possible way.
