The Long Way Home (1998)

Wes Anderson offers a light-hearted comedy in the Middle East centering around Catholic motifs. 

When you first hear that there is a series on Netflix where the lead character’s wife dies from cancer and he becomes dangerously suicidal, you wouldn’t immediately assume that it’s a comedy.

This modern update of the beloved classic swaps Cyrano's signature pronounced nose for achondroplasia, for a different vision that still retains the original's essence.

By depicting 4 different stories, Director Sergio Tovar Velarde keeps the focus on the shared humanity and search for love (both self and romantic) of various gay Mexican men.

Despite everything it was capable of, all of these poor choices strung together amount to nothing more than a counter-productive film.

The highly anticipated Marvel superhero movie of the year displays important themes of loss, loneliness, and change.
