“God’s Country” is set in a small town in Montana. The movie is based on “Winter Light” by author James Lee Burke. Burke, who’s a New York Times bestselling author. Burke has written over forty novels. He also has two short story collections and “Winter Light” is from one of those collections. I hope more filmmakers dig into them and find more movies to make.

“Goodnight Mommy” is the remake of the 2016 Austrian horror film of the same name. I say remake lightly. The original movie tackles what it’s like to go through a period of grief when you’re entirely alone. This film does the same thing, only here, and brilliantly when you think about it, you’re not quite sure what the hell is going on! Well, at first. It’s a tad slow. However, that’s what makes it so good… or is it confusing to its audience? That’s why I also use the word “brilliantly.” When you leave the theater, you can’t help but continue to think about this movie eating away at you.

“See How They Run” immediately piqued my interest. A 50’s whodunit murder mystery in the old classic style of Agatha Christie? What could go wrong outside of a character you love getting bumped off? ​

This is the true story of Jennifer (Lawrance) and June (Wright) Gibbons. They were identical twins from a small town in Wales. The Gibbons’ were the only black family around, which immediately had them standing out, and not in a good way. Read more
In case you weren’t aware, “The Woman King” is inspired by a true story. In the 1800s there were warrior women called the Agojie who protected the kingdom and, most significantly, the king of Dahomey Africa.
I’ll get this out of the way for you… this movie is an absolute must-see! I’m predicting right now that you’ll hear a lot about it during award season.​
