As we prepare for the opening of theaters and the return to normal life practices, we want to remind people that we are still within the thralls of a pandemic, and recommend people check out our article on ”If You Should Go Out” Here. Until then though, if you do go to a theater make sure it has a policy of requiring attendees to wear masks, and sit in isolated groups out of proximity of other viewers.

Mank – Releasing on Streaming
Rotten Tomatoes Reviewer Score – 90%
Herman J. Mankiewicz, played by Gary Oldman, is working on the screenplay for the film, “Citizen Kane.” As he works on it, he makes his way through 1930s Hollywood with all the wit and alcohol he can muster.
I could watch Gary Oldman in a film where he sits on a bench and just counts everyone that walks by. Everyone? EVERYONE!!! Lol, sorry had to work that in. If you are a fan of Citizen Kane, then this telling of the story from the other side will shine a light through the process.

Fern, played by Frances McDormand, loses everything she has, including the love of her life in a deep recession. Fern decides to travel through the American West to abandon her prior life, and find a new way to live moving forward.
A tale of recovery, and moving on, McDormand does a great job, as evident by reviews, showcasing the journey of a person abandoning their life and moving on. If you are looking for a drama to pull at your heart this is your film for the weak.

Rotten Tomatoes Reviewer Score – (None Available Yet)
Arthur Bretnik, played by Aaron Eckhart, is hired to investigate a murder in the small town of Wander. However, this paranoid private investigator starts to become convinced that this case is somehow connected with the prior death of his daughter.
If you are looking for a more noir style film this week, then Wander will fill that need, with Aaron Eckhart set to do a pretty good job with this film. We love Eckhart and are glad to start seeing him pop up again in films.
