Full transparency - I am not a big superhero movie fan, but I attended a screening of “Eternals”, for you, dear reader. For reference, I liked “Iron Man," “Spiderman," “Black Widow," and even some “Avengers” films, but it’s the many sequels and crossover movies that hold no interest for me.

Trigger warning. This entire movie is full of triggers - the ones its characters react to and the ones the audience may. It is a bleak film about the relentless cycle of addiction and its many inevitable ripple effects on those who love the addicted. It is also a movie about mother-son relat…

Homeowners think nothing of having goblins, nurses, vampires, or astronauts showing up at their doors each October asking for candy. Any other time of the year and these visitors might be turned away. But Halloween is all about the magical and the macabre, and trick-or-treating is a major co…

This film set in the home of filmmaker Ingmar Bergman, in the style of Bergman, with its characters also writing film scripts in the style of Bergman, is a bit too meta for me. The beautiful island of Faro in Sweden is a charming and serene setting for all of these screenwriters, but other t…
