"One Battle After Another" leads in the nominations with seven while Ryan Coogler's "Sinners" follows with five.

COMING SOON

Happy 2026 and here’s to a new year filled with more exciting and intriguing movies. One of the upcoming films I’m looking forward to seeing is "Mother Mary", the latest feature from David Lowery, the director behind the innovative features, "Ain't Them Bodies Saints", "A Ghost Story" and "The Green Knight". This psychological thriller takes place in the outlandish world of modern pop music.

Anne Hathaway plays Mother Mary, a pop superstar who is in need of a show-stopping dress for an upcoming tour. Mary approaches Sam (Michaela Coel), a costume designer that she had previously worked with but they hadn't spoken to each other in many years due to a falling out. Sam, who had a very close friendship with Mary, agrees to do this project however the dress will be created under her terms.

Original songs in "Mother Mary" have been provided by pop musicians, Charli XCX, FKA Twigs (who also makes an appearance in the film) and one of current top producers working in popular music today, Jack Antonoff. Hunter Schafer and Kaia Gerber also co-star in the film.


"Mother Mary" will be in US theaters on April 17, 2026

JOACHIM TRIER: AN AMERICAN CINEMATHEQUE RETROSPECTIVE

The American Cinematheque will celebrate the Danish-Norwegian filmmaker, Joachim Trier with a tribute featuring most of his movies to date beginning on January 2nd to January 8th. There has been plenty of buzz surrounding his most recent film, "Affeksjonsverdi (Sentimental Value)" which won the Grand Prix at the Cannes Film Festival, selected as the Norwegian entry for Best International Feature Film at the 98th Academy Awards, was awarded or nominated for several film critics prizes and received seven nominations for the upcoming Golden Globe Awards. Trier and his long-time collaborator, Eskil Vogt (who has co-written all of Trier's films) will be in-person for a special screening of "Sentimental Value" on January 7th at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica. They will also be appearing together following the screening of their previously acclaimed film from 2021, "Verdens verste menneske (The Worst Person in the World)" on January 8th at the Los Feliz Theatre in Los Angeles.

The work of Trier tends to be intimate ruminations involving romantic relationships, memory and an arduous search for a sense of identity. His arresting films are filled with dark moods, darker humor and subdued emotions while visually highly stylized yet naturalistic in tone.

Trier came from a family that had been involved in cinema with his father working as a sound technician and his grandfather was an experimental filmmaker in Norway. He first got involved with film himself by shooting and editing his own skateboarding videos. Trier later enrolled at the European Film College in Denmark and then the National Film & Television School in Britain. It was during this time that he made several short films with one, "Proctor" winning Best British Short Award at the 2002 Edinburgh International Film Festival.

Trier went to work on his feature film debut, "Reprise", released in 2006, about two friends who both want to become writers but whose lives take on different paths. This well-received film would go on to be selected as Norway's submission for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. "Reprise" became the first feature in Trier's Oslo trilogy, a trio of standalone films all set in the Norwegian city, which was followed by "Oslo, August 31st" in 2011 and concluded with "The Worst Person in the World". Trier also directed "Louder Than Bombs" his first English-language film, the supernatural thriller, "Thelma", and the documentary "The Other Munch".

Joachim Trier: An American Cinematheque Retrospective

GOODBYE JUNE (2025)

Written by Joe Anders



Directed by Kate Winslet



Where & When: Landmark Theatres Sunset, West Hollywood, CA. December 16, 2025 4:20 PM



Available to stream now on Netflix



The extraordinary British actor, Kate Winslet has delivered many outstanding screen performances in such wide-ranging films as "Heavenly Creatures", "Sense and Sensibility", "Titanic", "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", "The Holiday" and "The Reader" which she would win the Academy Award for Best Actress. Now she has made the move to work behind the camera with her directorial debut, "Goodbye June". This comedic drama deals with a dysfunctional family who must come together to help their ailing matriarch through her difficult time. With a rich history of playing strong-willed, complicated characters and appearing in many indie and experimental cinema, it would be expected that Winslet eagerly wanted to take us on an unconventional journey into the lives of this unstable family. But "Goodbye June" is disappointingly trite and surprisingly timid, never pushing these anxious and eccentric characters far enough to the edge to make this family's story feel essential.

One morning, June (Helen Mirren) is boiling water to make tea. Having difficulty breathing, she collapses to the floor with her son, Connor (Johnny Flynn) rushing to get his mother to the hospital. With his doddering father, Bernie (Timothy Spall) in tow, Connor has the task of contacting his three older sisters; the career-oriented mother, Julia (Winslet) who is handling work and family while her husband is out of the country for his job; Molly (Andrea Riseborough), an overwhelmed, stay-at-home mother who has her kind but scattered husband (Stephen Merchant) on hand yet he isn't much help and Helen (Toni Collette), an unmarried, new-age spiritualist guiding on a retreat out of the country. 

When they all arrive to the hospital, the doctors (Jeremy Swift, Raza Jaffrey) inform the family that June's cancer has aggressively returned and inoperable. Not given much time, the distraught family decides to make sure that June has at least one more special Christmas with her entire clan. But this holiday gathering will prove to be a challenge to pull off since Julia and Molly are barely speaking due to a long simmering tension between them. Connor begins to struggle with his life choices because of this latest crisis and Bernie is in denial to his wife's critical situation while June's health starts to rapidly decline.

Winslet decided to direct "Goodbye June" after reading the screenplay by Anders, who also happens to be her son with former husband, Sam Mendes, the acclaimed director of screen and stage. Not wanting to let this story be told by someone outside of the family, this film is based loosely on Anders' experiences coping with his maternal grandmother's ordeal with ovarian cancer. The script captures the trauma, fear and stress of an impending loss with considerate precision yet the characterizations are far too broad and uncompelling. But Winslet wisely assembled a starry cast of friends and colleagues to fill these roles, masterful talents that are more than capable of making these family members appealing and poignant, allowing for her first time in the director's chair to be slightly easier and helping to elevate the film in the process.

"Goodbye June" is a film filled with anguished emotions, watching a family trying to put aside their personal grievances towards each other in order to provide an united front in the face of tragedy. Yet the catharsis we are expecting doesn't feel well earned. When we discover what the actual conflict between the two feuding sisters is really about, the reason is far more exasperating than meaningful. And we don't know for sure that Connor had been struggling with his sexuality until literally the end of the movie although it was vaguely implied earlier during a quiet moment with his mother's nurse, aptly named Angel played by Fisayo Akinade. 

Winslet is successful in creating a warm, lighthearted yet uneasy atmosphere with "Goodbye June". But there seems like there could have been a far darker and funnier movie at play, one with a few unexpected twists that might have made this family drama come across as more impactful and less formulaic.

GREAT PERFORMANCES: LIGHTS CAMERA FEELINGS!

Acting involves a performer adopting a character in order to illustrate a story through various potential mediums. And great actors are able to express specific emotions on cue with astounding skill and impressive endurance.

For this year's New York Times celebration of Great Performances, the focus is on how these ten actors, who each gave brilliantly heartfelt and deeply moving film performances in 2025, were able to tap into such big feelings.

With photographs and video by Paul Kooiker and interviews by Amy X. Wang, the actors spotlighted are Jessie Buckley ("Hamnet"), Rose Byrne ("If I Had Legs I'd Kick You"), Kathleen Chalfant ("Familiar Touch"), Kirsten Dunst ("Roofman"), Jacob Elordi ("Frankenstein"), Lee Byung Hun ("No Other Choice"), Wunmi Mosaku ("Sinners"), Wagner Moura ("The Secret Agent"), Liam Neeson ("The Naked Gun"), and Teyana Taylor ("One Battle After Another").

NYTimes: An Actor's Guide To Big Feelings

KILL BILL: THE WHOLE BLOODY AFFAIR (2025)

Written & directed by Quentin Tarantino



Where & When: Vista Theatre, Los Angeles, CA. December 5, 2025 11:30 AM



When Quentin Tarantino completed what would be his fourth feature film, "Kill Bill" back in 2003, this homage to his love of the martial arts films he watched as a kid clocked in at four hours in completed length. Harvey Weinstein, the then-head of production at Miramax that financed the film, strongly favored to have his films released at manageable runtimes. The mercurial Weinstein suggested that Tarantino split the film into two parts which the filmmaker certainly preferred instead of being forced to make extensive cuts. "Kill Bill: Volume 1" reached theaters on October 10th with "Volume 2" coming out six months later. And this proved to be a far more practical solution. I mean, what in the world could actually be cut out of the film that wouldn't leave this breathtaking revenge thriller narratively neutered. 

Now, the two separate films have been properly joined together as one, entitled, "Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair" and released for a theatrical run. I was at the first showing of the film on the first day of it's official release at the theater that Tarantino owns, the Vista in Los Angeles. The energy in that room was electrified and everyone was ready to settle in for the four and a half hours (including one intermission) of this cinematic thrill ride. And the film in many ways has actually been improved, now without any extensive interruption to distract from the wildly clever, brutally violent and absolutely bonkers experience that is tightly packed inside of Tarantino's ferocious, blood-splattered extravaganza.

Even with the film's current reconnection and enhancements, the story remains the same: Without a word, the Bride (Uma Thurman) suddenly left behind her life as a member of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad lead by her lover, Bill (David Carradine). Tracked down during the rehearsal for her upcoming marriage at a small chapel in El Paso, Bill (codename: Snake Charmer) along with his crew, Copperhead (Vivica A. Fox), California Mountain Snake (Daryl Hannah), Sidewinder (Michael Madsen) and Cottonmouth (Lucy Liu) guns down the entire wedding party, killing everyone inside. As a pregnant Bride (codename: Black Mamba) lies wounded, she tries to inform Bill that he's the father but he shoots her in the head.

Left in a coma with a merciful Bill deciding it would be dishonorable to kill her while she's defenseless in the hospital, the Bride comes out of the mental hibernation four years later. Distraught over the loss of her child, she vows bloody revenge to kill Bill and the rest of the Deadly Vipers involved.

"Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair" had originally premiered during the Cannes Film Festival back in 2006. Tarantino later screened "The Whole Bloody Affair" a few years later in the first movie theater he would own, the New Beverly Cinema, a revival house in Los Angeles. There are some subtle changes found in this version with the use of alternate takes and the animated sequence that reveals the backstory of O-Ren (Cottonmouth) has been expanded to include the entire scene which was cut for time.

By the time he made "Kill Bill", Tarantino was even more confident and comfortable in his abilities as a filmmaker having achieved great success with his previous works, "Reservoir Dogs", "Pulp Fiction" and "Jackie Brown". Bestowed with plenty of accolades and prizes, he felt he could really begin to challenge some rules of conventional narratives, tackle subjects that are a bit more controversial and create his own thematic order. With "Kill Bill", Tarantino decided to go buck wild. Starting with an enjoyably farfetched plot, he pushed a non-linear story structure further, created some remarkable, memorable characters, incorporated elegantly rendered samurai sword fighting battles and pushed the blood and gore to unbelievable heights.

What this re-release of "Kill Bill" now brings into even sharper focus is the astonishing performance by Thurman and how she elevates the film through the sheer force of her radiant charisma and formidable physicality. As the Bride (aka Beatrix Kiddo), the statuesque actress is on screen for almost the entirety of the film as we watch her shrewdly plotting each step of her plan before rapidly and seemingly effortlessly putting her merciless scheme into motion. Taking on one combatant after the other, the Bride is raw, feral and deadly when facing an enemy (or an endless army of adversaries), using her razor sharp instincts to ultimately conquer and destroy. Yet she's still capable of letting down her guard to be soft, tender and even maternal when given the opportunity. It's by no means an exaggeration to state this is Thurman's greatest screen appearance, masterfully going above and beyond in this role of a lifetime.

I will admit that I tend not to be a big fan of films with excessive time lengths. My personal ideal of a perfect running time for a movie is, give or take, about two hours. My gripe is that often times when movies run well past this point (pushing thirty minutes and beyond) they tend to feel bloated, usually doing nothing more than simply making the film unnecessarily longer instead of enhancing the narrative. Now having stated this, "The Whole Bloody Affair" is certainly a film that earns every single second of its 270 minute runtime.

There is no question in my mind that Tarantino is an amazing talent and one of the most important filmmakers of all time. But this highly praised artist also has a narcissistic personality disorder and very large ego leaving him to believe that he can freely express his opinions no matter how wrong, offensive or downright cruel they might be. His recent personal attack on the talents of actor, Paul Dano is still shocking to me for it's lack of common courtesy and basic decency, especially considering Tarantino's position in the industry.

But none of this changes my opinion of Tarantino as a writer and director. His gift for taking the silly excesses of B-movies and adding his own singular spin on plot and characters is now legendary. There have been several misguided filmmakers who have attempted to duplicate the "Tarantino Effect". Yet they all fail to understand that their brains simply have to be wired a certain way in order to even remotely come close to his extraordinarily profound cinematic style.
