ATOMIC BLONDE – July 28, 2017
Oscar® winner Charlize Theron explodes into summer in Atomic Blonde, a breakneck action-thriller that follows MI6’s most lethal assassin through a ticking time bomb of a city simmering with revolution and double-crossing hives of traitors.
The crown jewel of Her Majesty’s Secret Intelligence Service, Agent Lorraine Broughton (Theron) is equal parts spycraft, sensuality and savagery, willing to deploy any of her skills to stay alive on her impossible mission. Sent alone into Berlin to deliver a priceless dossier out of the destabilized city, she partners with embedded station chief David Percival (James McAvoy) to navigate her way through the deadliest game of spies.
A blistering blend of sleek action, gritty sexuality and dazzling style, Atomic Blonde is directed by David Leitch (John Wick, upcoming Deadpool 2). Also starring John Goodman, Til Schweiger, Eddie Marsan, Sofia Boutella and Toby Jones, the film is based on the Oni Press graphic novel series “The Coldest City,” by Antony Johnston & illustrator Sam Hart. Kurt Johnstad (300) wrote the screenplay.

Everyone knows independent film is where it’s at these days. You can’t argue the facts. Their creators aren’t inhibited like filmmakers working on big budget films. They have all creative control over their art. If you want something unique, indie has the pickle for your palette.
Today, are you looking for an interesting indie film that can give you a good chuckle? If ‘yes’, then I have the perfect film for you to add to your list of must-sees. Odd Brodsky. It’s… odd… and that’s its charm.
It’s not impossible to believe that every single one of us has found ourselves in a situation where we feel a little out of place; a bit uncomfortable where we stand or who we are surrounded by at a given moment. Oftentimes we are facing a position that doesn’t give us the level of comfort we’d prefer to have and we’re troubled by that. Well, imagine this is the norm in your life; that this IS your life. Meet Audrey “Odd” Brodsky, the spirit for which filmmaker Cindy Baer introduces you to such an existence.
Odd Brodsky is a comedic story loosely inspired by some of Baer’s own journeys on this planet, and if you’re a filmmaker you’ll especially appreciate the whimsical musings of these familiar attempts at making it in the business.”
Aud… Odd is a woman who has made it her life’s work not to fit in and has accepted her fate… or has she? In what feels like a one hour and thirty-three minute SNL skit, Odd and her gang of friends are trying their best to make something of themselves.
Working in Hollywood and being an actress seems to not only be Odd’s passion but also the only thing with which she excels, ‘Acting makes me braver than I really am.’
Audrey’s friend Sammy is producing a play that gives writers Baer and Matthew Irving an opportunity to bring on the silly. For instance, when Sammy is looking for a particular actor to be on stage who is playing the part of God in her stage show Hell is Here, she shouts for him, and the way this whole scene plays out… I almost choked on my chips. It’s hysterical.
Now thinking maybe behind the scenes is best for her, Odd decides to produce a reality show. Again with the laughs… of using scenes to their fullest; labeling people such as Photolab guy and Camera One. It’s great! Odd moves from building to building and as she moves back and forth, painted on the wall, literally on the wall, are the paths she’s choosing. The symbolism is great fun. Very clever.
Tegan Ashton Cohan is so wonderful as Audrey, and with her, Camera One, is perfectly cast. Matthew Kevin Anderson shows the perfect emotion for what he’s going through and the feelings he’s starting to have for Odd. Grand kudos goes to Baer for handling the role of Sammy and keeping her fellow actors in mind at the same time. She handled this set well and it is abundantly clear that she has the product to prove she… made it.
Warning to you, however. You’ll want to find Cindy Baer and give her a big hug after watching this movie, because not only did she entertain you, but you can’t help but wonder how much of this is reality and how much pressure had she truly felt deep down growing up? Did her family support her? Well, if they didn’t, she proves them wrong with this winning film. Not only that, she makes fun of it so you know that if the pain was there… it certainly isn’t now.
Impressive job, Cindy Baer! Genuinely delightful film. I cannot wait to see what you, even Audrey, has in store for us next… until then, may I borrow Camera One?
Here are VOD links for you to watch Odd Brodsky!

Are you a horror fan looking for something new? Then don’t miss Blackcoat’s Daughter; another winner from A24! The short answer as to why you can’t miss this is that it totally embodies the new part that you’ve been looking for. So, here’s a bit of unsolicited advice for you, if you don’t mind, don’t read much more about the film. Don’t watch a trailer. Go in cold, only knowing that you have to see it. You’re a horror fan and that’s all you need to be. If you’d like to continue reading, I don’t give away too much.
Cinematically, it’s a stunner. I’m ready to watch it again for the pure enjoyment of it. The music is so unsettling, the way bows screech across their string instruments or the strings are plucked hard to get your attention in a given moment… genius. Much like horror classics, the music is central in setting the sweeping tenor of the film. It was absolutely unnerving.
You’ll also be impressed with how this story, that centers on three different girls, starts to unfold. Kat (Shipka) and Rose (Boynton) are stuck at their Catholic school in Bramford during winter break. When their parents don’t come and pick them up, the headmaster asks that they are watched over by a couple of nuns. Kat and Rose don’t know one another very well, nor do they particularly like one another, but they’re making due with the situation they find themselves.
Then we are introduced to a young woman on the road named Joan who is played by Emma Roberts. She’s odd; almost lifeless when she is approached by Bill (Remar) and Linda (Holly) who assume the girl’s in trouble and would like to help. She reminds Bill of their daughter and he can’t help but tell her so. Uncomfortable, but desperate to get to Bramford, she accepts the ride. As Joan gets closer to Bramford, she gets more and more dark and we cut back and forth to and from the other girls.
We begin to pick up on more of each storyline. Things are revealed about Kat who is having terrifying visions and she, like Joan, seems to get ill while her demeanor changes, as well. Rose overhears something sinister and creeps around in the dark, abandoned school halls. She does something that I don’t believe anyone in her situation would, however, and that is go downstairs where it’s dark and peeks through the window in a door she has no business looking through. It’s here she sees something she wishes she hadn’t. But when did this happen exactly and are you sure? Just when you think you have this movie figured out, you didn’t know a thing. What really works is how the tension builds in both storylines and you cannot wait to see them intersect… if that’s in fact what’s going to happen.
Perkins’ writing and directing mixed with cinematographer Julie Kirkwood’s style, who worked with Perkins on the Netflix original I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House, as well, will leave an impression on you. This is a well told, rare, impactful story. Perkins took special care in making sure you remembered his characters long after the movie was over. I can assure you that you will. The weather adds shading, the sets add mood, the lighting creates fear and, of course, the performances grip you. Perkins wastes nothing in enhancing the film’s ambiance to set a specific tone for you.
I couldn’t wait to see where the stories would come together. As the movie got further and further in, I was getting more and more uncomfortable watching it alone… I’ll admit to then allowing a little daylight in by opening the curtains. Let’s see how you fair. Catch Blackcoat’s Daughter exclusively at the Alamo Drafthouse in Chandler, or wherever it’s playing near you, this weekend. Good luck!
