2019’s Joker was a comic book movie for people who don’t like comic books. Its newly-released sequel, Joker: Folie à Deux, is both that and a musical for people who don’t particularly like musicals.
I told myself I wasn’t going to be sarcastic, but it’s tough when the director of the film you’re reviewing doesn’t seem to have much of a feel for the genre in which he’s working.…
We open onstage, blue light and garlands.
We are in the presence of Divine G (Colman Domingo), wreathed and quietly commanding. One line he utters, essaying the role of Lysander in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, could serve as a statement on the whole film that is to follow: “And ere a man hath power to say ‘Behold!’”…

A year on from its debut at the South by Southwest Film Festival, with accolades including a rapturous review from horror maestro Stephen King, Late Night with the Devil finally arrives on the public stage.
A found-footage-style horror film with a twist, Late Night with the Devil presents itself as a recently rediscovered episode of a fictional second-tier talk show from the 1970s.…
Some stories don’t grow old.
Whether its The Great Gatsby, 1984, or Frankenstein (to name but a very few), they stand the test of time because they each get a profound truth at the heart of society and the human condition, and are retold with endless new iterations and variations.…
