Barry somehow landing on the one that that'd make me want to see this movie
Sorkin’s THE SOCIAL RECKONING is one of the most insipid, ugly, flat films of the year — an insufferably sanctimonious fantasia of blue-state Boomers that traps Jeremy Strong in a man-child performance that unintentionally echoes Martin Short in CLIFFORD. theglobeandmail.com/culture/…

don't know why i missed that this had been published, but during TIFF i sat down with director Sophie Deraspe for a quite moving conversation about her doc The Final Act, which takes viewers into the emotional journey of medically assisted dying
Director Sophie Deraspe wants her new documentary “The Final Act” to change how we think about dying.
