‘Fargo’ Review: Noah Hawley’s Critical Darling Returns To Its Roots With Timely, Funny Fifth Season

After an ambitious fourth season in 2020 that arguably drifted into something different from what Noah Hawley had produced before in his Coen Brothers-inspired “Fargo,” the fifth chapter of this twisted anthology series returns to the roots of the film that gives it a title. It’s as if Hawley and his team put some of the basic elements of the 1996 Oscar winner on a whiteboard—kidnapped housewife, pair of bumbling criminals (one foreign), car salesman husband, kindly Minnesotan police officer, etc.—and then figured out how to warp them through their funhouse mirror approach to Coen-esque black comedy.

‘Hunters’ Season 2 Review: Jennifer Jason Leigh Is A Welcome Addition To A More Measured Revenge Plan

Nearly three years have passed since David Weil’s bombastic Holocaust revenge series, “Hunters,” debuted on Prime Video to decidedly mixed reviews. The Auschwitz Memorial didn’t hold back when they leveled criticism at the project, calling its depiction of a game of human chess “dangerous foolishness & caricature.” Primarily set in the 1970s, Weil’s story showcases a group of vigilantes on the hunt for Nazis who escaped justice at the end of WWII.

‘Sharp Stick’ Trailer: Lena Dunham Provocatively Prods In A Coming Of Sexual Age Drama Arriving July 29

Actor/writer/director Lena Dunham’s career goes something like this: dazzle everyone with her DIY, lo-fi indie debut “Tiny Furniture,” impress Judd Apatow with that film and get HBO to greenlight “Girls.” That honest coming-of-age series becomes the talk of television for at least five of its six seasons; then, she becomes something of a pariah on social media in the early days of Twitter for TMI over-sharing.

‘Fargo’ Season 5 Adds Juno Temple, Jon Hamm & Jennifer Jason Leigh To Its Cast

Just when you’re convinced that there is no way FX is going to do another “Fargo” season, the network turns around and gives Noah Hawley the greenlight for a new batch of episodes. And now, as Season 5 of “Fargo,” which was announced back in February, gears up for production, we’re starting to get an idea of which actors will be leading the new ensemble.

‘Sharp Stick’ Review: Lena Dunham’s Provocative Tale of Sexual Awakening Tackles Thorny Material with Astonishing Compassion [Sundance]

Playing in the Premieres section of this year’s Sundance Film Festival, “Sharp Stick,” produced during lockdown, was conceived by Lena Dunham and the film’s director of photography, Ashley Connor, starting from the base elements that were already available to them — namely a set of actors and locations. But while many quarantine-made films have appeared to embrace a “will this do?” aesthetic, implicitly relying on the audience’s sympathy and compassionate understanding to fill gaps and forgive compromises in production value, Dunham has instead created a work of art that comfortably fits within and plays with the limitations imposed by the pandemic.

Quentin Tarantino On The Bruce Lee Controversy In ‘Once Upon A Time In Hollywood’: Other Than The Family, People Can “Suck A D*ck”

While there are always a lot of news that comes up regarding Quentin Tarantino films, particularly when it comes to his dialogue and use of gore and violence, after the debut of “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,” there was a bit of a surprising controversy surrounding the filmmaker’s depiction of Bruce Lee. In a film that seems to celebrate filmmaking and actors of decades gone by, many people noticed Tarantino didn’t necessarily showcase Bruce Lee in the best light, as he came off as an arrogant asshole (Lee’s widow, Linda Lee, criticized the film and Tarantino, at the time).

“Lisey’s Story” is unmistakably a writer’s miniseries, so much that it romances a rough draft. It has immense range, touching upon every shade of darkness within the human spirit.

“Solos” is one of those projects that historians will look at years from now and instantly recognize as a COVID-19 production. One or two actors performing in one closed set and a short story that finds them mostly speaking to themselves or, in some cases, other versions of themselves.

‘Awake’ Trailer: Sleep Is Survival & It’s Gina Rodriguez Vs. The Apocalypse On Netflix In June

Movies about disasters have evolved quite a bit since their heyday twenty-five years ago. Since 1997’s volcanic one-two punch of “Dante’s Peak” and “Volcano” and 1998’s similar two-fister of “Deep Impact” and “Armageddon,” the genre has both expanded its scale and deepened its scope.

‘Sharp Stick’: Lena Dunham Secretly Directed Her First Film In A Decade

Remember a few weeks ago, when we reported that Lena Dunham was returning to the director’s chair of a feature film for the first time in 11 years for the upcoming project, “Catherine, Called Birdy?” Yeah, apparently, that’s not the truth. Yes, the film is still happening, but it’s not Dunham’s first film since “Tiny Furniture.” You see, she went ahead and filmed a secret feature over the past several months, titled “Sharp Stick.” According to Variety, Dunham has finished production on her new film, “Sharp Stick,” and is bringing the film to the European Film Market to find distribution.
