The Yearâs Best Film Is This All-Time Great Mind-Melter (opens the original)
Read excerpt
From Nathan for You to The Curse to The Rehearsal, Nathan Fielder has evolved his comedy of inquisitive weirdness into something wholly and electrically newâa blending of awkward humor, social and psychological analysis, and structural inventiveness that melds fiction and non-fiction, wit and gravity, in ways that are often head-spinningly difficult to parse. Yet even his prior mind-melting works canât fully prepare viewers for You Can See Everything (screening at the New York Film Festival
Oscar Nomineeâs New Netflix Epic Is GreatâWith One Exception (opens the original)
Read excerpt
East of Eden is excellent in every respect but one, which makes its sole failing all the more frustrating. Iâm speaking about lighting, or rather the lack thereof, which has plagued countless previous original Netflix productions and which mires Zoe Kazanâs take on John Steinbeckâs classic 1952 novel in visual murkiness.

Now, with Verityâan adaptation of Colleen Hooverâs 2018 novelâsheâs headlined one of the goofiest films of her career. An old-school melodrama of hidden secrets, seductive passions, and murder most foul, the Oscar-winnerâs latest (Oct. 2, in t
Tom Cruise Loses the Plot in Desperate Bid for Oscar Glory (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In 1999, Tom Cruise earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor for his work in Paul Thomas Andersonâs Magnola while simultaneously headlining (alongside then-wife Nicole Kidman) Stanley Kubrickâs final film, Eyes Wide Shut. It was a titanic auteur-driven twofer for the Hollywood icon, and yet within a few years, heâd largely abandon serious drama in favor of solidifying his status as the industryâs reigning action superstar. That he was good-to-great in most of those sl
