We’re kicking off 2025 with one of the last movies to get released in 2024! Babygirl stars Nicole Kidman as a high-powered CEO who begins an affair with one of her interns. I got to see this one ahead of its release with a pretty big crowd and it was one of the more memorable…
We Live in Time The other movie I saw at the Violet Crown in Austin was We Live in Time. This was a solid movie that’s all but guaranteed to ensure nobody leaves the movie with dry eyes. The main cast of Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh are unsurprisingly top notch, and their chemistry is…
Speak No Evil I’m going to be short and sweet here because there is really only one reason to watch this movie and it’s for James McAvoy. I know, I’m just as shocked as you that James McAvoy delivers a great performance. I thought every other one he’s given was just a fluke 😜. McAvoy…
If you’re a movie lover on social media, you’ve probably noticed an unsettling trend: audiences treating theatres like their personal living rooms. The release of Wicked seems to have amplified this, with a viral post of someone snapping a photo of the title card and encouraging others to do it, and other people even singing…

The last of my coverage from the Austin Film Festival (AFF) is with this review for the upcoming film, September 5. September 5 was co-written and directed by Tim Fehlbaum, a Swiss film director in his first mainstream feature film. Moritz Binder and Alex David join Tim as co-writers. The film chronicles the 1972 Munich…
Our coverage of the movies we saw at the Austin Film Festival keeps moving along! This time I’m talking about Operation Taco Gary’s. Written and directed by Michael Kvamme, this comedy is a throwback to comedies of the early 2000s, even going so far as to cast Jason Biggs of American Pie fame. The two…
From the moment I read the synopsis of this short film while I was at the Austin Film Festival, I knew I had to see it. Written and directed by Emily Everhard, the synopsis for Special Delivery reads: “A Foley artist for pornography falls in love with a porn star during an ADR session.” For…
Adriana and I had the pleasure of attending the Austin Film Festival this year! We were joined by some friends for a few days of movies, panels, hot weather, and good times. We’re going to kick off our coverage of the Austin Film Festival with Bird, another film distributed by Mubi that we got the…
