Two one-act plays explore love and loneliness. In "Table by the Window" an aging fashion model contrives a reunion with her ex-husband, a politician ruined by scandal, and their passion is rekindled. In "Table Number Seven" a meek woman harbors a secret love for a man accused of fraud and sex offenses, forcing her to take a stand for the first time in her life.

Even with its straightforward premise, “Richard Jewell” is ramped up by exceptional drama. In all honesty, the performances are out of this world.

His bumbling antics create the perfect hero, and very quickly, we feel the societal heat that surrounds our protagonists.
This documentary moves chronologically through Black representation in horror films, revealing the genre's connections to Black history.

"Come Play" was entertaining and had some great ideas about how to scare children away from playing with facial recognition settings.
As a frequent “the book was better” extoller, this movie was well worth the watch.
