Yorgos Lanthimos directed Kinds of Kindness, which he calls a triptych fable. It begins with the story of a man without a choice who tries to take control of his own life.

I am sure there is more to the story, but Lanthimos films appear skewed with abbreviated characters. As the reviews appear, the storyline becomes hashed out.

The cast includes Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe, Margaret Qualley, Hong Chau, Joe Alwyn, Mamoudou Athie, and Hunter Schafer.

Ethan Coen’s “Drive-Away Dolls” Trailers, Images, Clips and Posters

comedy, , ,

Ethan Coen directs the screenplay by Tricia Cooke, Drive-Away Dolls.

It’s a comedy caper that follows Jamie, played by Margaret Qualleyan, an uninhibited free spirit bemoaning yet another breakup with a girlfriend. Her demure friend Marian, played by Geraldine Viswanathan, desperately needs to loosen up.

You might have seen Viswanathan in Natalie Krinsky’s The Broken Hearts Gallery, where she wears the same angst expression. The film also stars Dacre Montgomery of Netflix’s Stranger Things.

In search of a fresh start, the two embark on an impromptu road trip to Tallahassee, but things quickly go awry when they cross paths with a group of inept criminals along the way.

Also starring in the film are Beanie Feldstein, Pedro Pascal, Colman Domingo, Bill Camp and Matt Damon. Worth noting is that Bill Camp starred in Sound of Freedom, an unbelievable performance.

Kristen Stewart evolved into a talented actress since her Twilight movies. The camera shows her upbeat, charismatic, and determined. Jean Seberg is Stewart’s next role, and she’s embraced the character as the title role for the movie Seberg.

Directed by Benedict Andrews and inspired by true events, the movie follows Seberg as the French New Wave darling and Breathless star. 

Directed by Benedict Andrews and inspired by true events, the movie follows Seberg as the French New Wave darling and Breathless star. 

In the late 1960s, the FBI targeted her because of her support of the civil rights movement and romantic involvement with Hakim Jamal, played by Anthony Mackie, among others. 

Andrews tells the thriller through a film noir style. His directing credits include remakes of two Tennessee William’s plays: A Street Car Named Desire and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. 

Written by Joe Shrapnel and Anna Waterhouse, Hoover’s overreaching surveillance and harassment to suppress and discredit Seberg’s activism destroyed her life and career.

The well-rounded cast includes Jack O’Connell, Margaret Qualley, Zazie Beetz, Yvan Attal, Stephen Root, Colm Meaney, and Vince Vaughn.

The next three movie clips offer the main plot point of the movie, which was the government spying on her because of her strong stance in cultural issues in America.
