Dante begins The Divine Comedy lost in a dark wood. Julian Schnabel’s In the Hand of Dante invites us to follow him there.
Adapted from Nick Tosches’ notoriously unfilmable novel, Schnabel’s first feature since At Eternity’s Gate is part literary mystery, part gangster thriller, part historical epic, part theological meditation.…
Formerly titled Bear Country, Derrick Borte’s The Get Out arrives with a premise that sounds deceptively simple: a nightclub owner decides he has had enough and decides to get out of the business.…
