A Conversation With the Filmmakers of 'When Men Were Men'

The Shrew of Destiny
Shrews are small, lovely and always hungry mammals… which Happen to have some epic adventures!

But there is also an optimistic part of the legend – the shrew of destiny will come to aid its tribe in the darkest hour. But what if the chosen one turns out to be the smallest, weakest and honestly not-so-bright shrew?

Review: The Roses – Marriage and the Sweet Taste of Revenge
The Roses is a wickedly sharp marital warfare comedy that transforms domestic dysfunction into high art. Olivia Colman and Benedict Cumberbatch deliver powerhouse performances as a couple whose fairy-tale romance implodes when his architectural career collapses just as her culinary empire takes off. What makes Jay Roach's remake so devastatingly effective is its refusal to pick sides—both spouses are equally sympathetic and monstrous, wielding Tony McNamara's razor-sharp dialogue like weapons forged from shared intimacies. It's a film that dares you to laugh at relationship wreckage while forcing you to confront the uncomfortable truth that the line between passionate love and mutual destruction is terrifyingly thin.
