Movie 1: Wuthering Heights
This is a big, passionate Gothic romance with spectacular cinematography. And the latest adaptation of Emily Bronte’s classic novel. Never having read the book, we found this rendition fascinating, dark, yet somehow pulls you into the love story. Well done nuanced acting by a first rate cast. Many national critics found this movie just so-so, but we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Movie 2: Crime 101
This is a very entertaining action movie with sophisticated twists and turns. It has dubious diamond dealers, an intelligent and thoughtful thief (Chris Hemsworth), a hard working detective (Mark Ruffalo) and an insurance agent (Halle Berry) who ties it all together. Filmed on the streets of Los Angeles, this is a fun time at the movies. We will see it again.

Movie 3: Jimpa
This is a beautifully made and thoughtful independent movie. Set in Amsterdam a daughter (Olivia Coleman) goes to visit her dying gay father (John Lithgow). This is a semi-autobiographical film by Australian director Sophie Hyde. There is humor, angst and love all bundled together. We literally knew nothing about this film going into the theater. We came out feeling very satisfied. It debuted at the Sundance Film Festival and currently in limited theatrical release. No streaming platform announced yet.
