Nice musical history of P.T. Barnum. Entertaining effort by Hugh Jackman.
Excellent collection of short films. All these films were worth watching, but although The Silent Child won, my favorite was Watu Wote/All of Us which showed the crippling effects of religious intolerance and the simple power of people bonding with each other in spite of their different backgrounds and surroundings.
Wonderful Daniel Day-Lewis film with exceptional performances by Vicky Krieps and Lesley Manville.Full of surprises and interesting characters.
Strange movie of a poker-playing restaurant investor.
Brandon Sanderson’s concluding book in his excellent Mistborn fantasy trilogy.
Lovely, surprising movie by Guillermo del Toro, but maybe not so surprising since he wrote Pacific Rim, Hellboy, and Pan’s Labyrinth ***** – one of my all time favorites which he also directed.
Naomi Novik’s wonderful fantasy of an apprentice wizard and her awakening to the world of magic.
Meryl Streep was excellent in this well put together piece of history. Her performance, as usual, was worth the ticket.
Fine Judy Dench period piece with a very good performance from Ali Fazal.
