Much Ado About Nothing

Much Ado About Nothing


"I'd be pressed to imagine a more sure-footed Much Ado. When Shakespeare's done right, you can't imagine him ever being done wrong. The clarity is blinding." (David Edelstein, New York Magazine)

Shakespeare's classic comedy is given a contemporary spin! Shot in just 12 days (and using the original text), the story of sparring lovers Beatrice and Benedick offers a dark, sexy and occasionally absurd view of the intricate game that is love.

Joss Whedon. 2013. 109 m. PG-13. USA. Roadside Attractions .

Before Midnight

Before Midnight


"If I were only allowed to see one movie this year, I'd want it to be Before Midnight. If I were only allowed two trips to a theater this year, I'd see it twice." (Mary Pols, TIME Magazine)

The biggest arthouse film of the summer, Before Midnight  is the love story of Jesse and Celine excellently brought to life by Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy. With picturesque Greece as the backdrop, Richard Linklater's latest proves that romance isn't just for fairy tales. 


Check out the NY Times "Anatomy of a Scene" featuring commentary from filmmaker Richard Linklater. 

Richard Linklater. 2013. 109 m. R. USA. Sony Pictures Classics.

Frances Ha

Frances Ha


"Shot in black-and-white video that lends this New York odyssey a scrappy feel, Frances Ha foregrounds a characteristically endearing Greta Gerwig performance defined by her usual onscreen combination of high energy wit and awkward self-effacement." (Eric Kohn, Indiewire.com)

Frances Ha is a modern comic fable that explores adjusting to life in the post-college years. The film reteams the always charming Greta Gerwig (Damsels in DistressTo Rome with Love) with filmmaker Noah Baumbach (The Squid and the WhaleMargot at the Wedding) and smartly deals with issues of friendship, class, ambition, failure, and redemption.

Fill the Void

Fill the Void


Fill the Void has been described as the first feature film directed by an Orthodox Israeli woman, and it is one of a small handful of modern movies that depict religious devotion from within." (A.O. Scott, NY Times)

Eighteen-year-old Shira (Hada Yaron) is about to be married to a very promising young man until the unexpected death of her sister threatens to alter the future Shira envisioned. Soon the young woman must decide between what's best for her family and her heart's desire.  In a NY Times profile of the filmmaker Rama Burshtein, Jane Eisener writes, "Ms. Burshtein allows the women in the film to exercise a certain control over their lives, despite their limited roles within the ultra-Orthodox hierarchy."

Rama Burshtein. 2013. 90 m. PG. Israel, Hebrew. Sony Pictures Classics.
