Colette is the story of  a woman fighting over gender-based societal constraints after she writes very successful books under her husbands name but decides she wants creative ownership.

Keira Knightley, Dominic West, Eleanor Tomlinson and Fiona Shaw star while Wash Westmoreland directs…

I’m watching because it’s Keira and for the true story of an important fight.

Denise Gough, Aiysha Hart and Ray Panthaki also star.

Colette Release Dates: September 21st, 2018 (US); January 25th, 2019 (UK)…

THE SQUARE (2017): New Trailer From Elisabeth Moss, Claes Bang, Dominic West…

Written and directed by Ruben Östlund, The Square is a satirical drama about the sense of community, moral courage and the affluent person’s need for egocentricity in an increasingly uncertain world…

Interesting synopsis, I must say. The square seems to have a similar quality to The One I Love (2014), an Elisabeth Moss movie I like. It’s perhaps the slightly crazed energy both films seem to share that had me linking the two.

The Square Release Dates: March 16th, 2018 (UK)…

MONEY MONSTER (2016): The Thing I Liked…

Money Monster is not on my list of favourite thrillers because even though the cast is stellar, the story and its execution proved not completely worthy of their efforts. There were a few somewhat thrilling moments but nothing proved enough to make the movie everything that the trailer had me hoping for.

Jack O’Connell (Kyle) and Julia Roberts are my favourite things about the Jodie Foster-directed film. Not to say that George Clooney was bad, but I must confess that his character’s dance moves at the start of the film were especially awkward. So much so that having to experience that made me lose quite a bit of respect for the entire production as a whole.

I doubt that anyone will be missing much if they don’t bother with Money Monster. O’Connell’s performance and the resolution of Kyle’s story is the reason I kept watching to the very end. How could I not after experiencing his great work in  Starred Up (2013)

Here’s a little taster of what it’s like when Clooney’s character breaks into dance. Deliberately awkward or not, I doubt that it helped the movie.

Julia Roberts,  Jack O’Connell, George Clooney and Dominic West are the stars of Money Monster, a brand new thriller directed by Jodie Foster and set on Wall Street…

I’m most excited because Julia Roberts is always great, the movie looks good and one of my favourite young actors, Jack O’Connell is in it. Time to ready ourselves for the tense and emotional ride.

Money Monster Release Date(s): May 13th, 2016 (US); May 27th, 2016 (UK); March 31st, 2016 (Ger)…
