Lena Olin, Juliette Rylance and Bruce Dern are the stars of new Tom Dolby-directed drama The Artist’s Wife.

It’s a story in which Claire (Olin) finds herself in the middle of a late-life crisis. A crisis that begins when her renowned abstract artist husband (Dern) is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, before he completes the paintings for his final show.

Almost right away I thought of The Wife (2018) because both movies are about wives who sacrifice plenty in order to prioritise their husband’s careers.

I’m curious about what Dolby’s film has to say about Alzheimer’s and the creative person. I also want to see this particular experience of the ever-supportive wife.

Caryn West, Tonya Pinkins, Catherine Curtin, Stefanie Powers, Avan Jogia, Ravi Cabot-Conyers and Clare Louise Frost also star.

The Artist’s Wife Release Dates: September 25th, 2020 (US)…

Matthias Schoenaerts, Connie Britton and Bruce Dern are the stars of new Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre-directed drama The Mustang.

The Mustang has Schoenaerts playing Roman Coleman, a violent convict who’s given the chance to participate in a rehabilitation therapy program that involves the training of wild mustangs.

I like this cast. Especially Schoenaerts and Britton. It’s great to see Schoenaerts, one of my absolute favourite actors, in a leading role in an American movie.  

Naturally, and in part because of Robert Redford’s involvement, this trailer has me thinking of The Horse Whisperer (1998). Remember that film? The one that introduced many to a talented young Scarlett Johansson?

Josh Stewart, Jason Mitchell, Gideon Adlon, Jasmeet Baduwalia, Kelly Richardson and Devin Marigny also star.

The Mustang Release Dates: March 15th, 2019 (US)…

In Our Souls At Night, Jane Fonda and Robert Redford play a widow and widower who’ve lived next to each other for years. The pair have almost no relationship but that all changes when…

I haven’t seen Schoenaerts in a new movie for a while, and I really want to. This story intrigues me a little, and I appreciate Jane Fonda because of her great work in Grace & Frankie and Youth (2015). 

There are also her interviews in The Hollywood Reporter Roundtables.

Directed by Ritesh Batra, Bruce Dern, Michael Love Toliver and Phyllis Somerville also star.

In Warning Shot, Tammy Blanchard is a single mother struggling to make ends meet. That is, until she inherits her family’s farmhouse.

Unfortunately for her, a business rival covets the water rights and so begins the nightmare.

I want to see Blanchard’s character fight and win. I’m also excited to watch funny man David Spade play a powerful and very bad man.

Niki Kloss, Guillermo Díaz and Bruce Dern also star.

Read my spoiler-free movie review of The Hateful Eight (2015).

I wasn’t as excited as I expected to be after seeing the teaser trailer for Quentin Tarantino’s latest, The Hateful Eight, but after the official full trailer….

I’m excited to meet all the undoubtedly cool characters and see the story play out in that traditionally spectacular Tarantino fashion.

You don’t really see his face in the trailer, but I can tell that the guy on the far right of the screen at 1:30 is Channing Tatum. Bring on the linguistic acrobatics. I know I’m ready.

The Hateful Eight Release Date (s): December 25th, 2015 (USA), January 8th, 2016 (UK)…
