Somewhere near the middle of Like A Complete Unknown,  folk icon Joan Baez (played by Monica Barbaro), says to Timothèe Chalamet's Bob Dylan: "You're kind of an a**hole, Bob." After a pause, Dylan replies "Yeah...I guess so."  This was a crucial moment for me, a cinephile who has grown weary of the way Hollywood tells stories about real people. The last decade of biopics has often seen its subjects presented not merely as talented people, but as superheroes who are not unlike Greek Gods: legendary in status, perched atop a pantheon that lies far outside of human reach. In these films, they're not like us. They never were. They were always "other," bred of stardust and mercury. Through twists of fate that sometimes seem cosmic in scope, the modern biopic no longer presents slightly-exaggerated history, packaged for easy consumption; it now turns human stories into manufactured myth of Shakespearean proportions. That's what makes the Baez lin...

The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim features no Hobbits, no Elves, and no Dwarves. There are also no dragons, Ringwraiths, or great looming eyes of fire that see all. This is a tale of men and women, and jealousies that lead to great tragedies. It is a tale of the inhabitants of Rohan, whom Lord of the Rings fans will well remember as being the Norse-inspired race of humans in Tolkien's The Two Towers who were ruled by King Theoden, the once-noble king whose mind had been poisoned by Wormtongue in collusion with Saruman. The climax of The Two Towers features the Battle of Helm's Deep. War of the Rohirrim is the story of Helm himself.  This film gives LotR fans something we've never really had: a full-length anime set in Middle Earth, sourced from the official Tolkien chronology and brought to life with all the elements developed by Peter Jackson and his team. The visuals, the music, the recognizable design--it's all here, but in anime form. The film tak...

Lightning in a bottle. That's what the big-screen version of Wicked manages to capture. With deep respect to the world of Oz, the songs, and the characters that audiences have loved for a lifetime, Wicked is that rare commercial film that has heart, warmth, magic, and real stakes.  Full disclosure: I have been very grumpy about the idea of this movie. It's adapted from the Tony-winning musical theater production, which itself was adapted from the books by Gregory Maguire, who himself was riffing on the works of L. Frank Baum (who was probably chronicling an opium trip, for all I know, but I digress).  I love the musical. I've seen it twice, and the entire live theater version of Wicked is shorter than PART I of the theatrical film, which runs 2 hours and 40 minutes. Because I live in the real world (though not by choice), I was cynical about the whole thing. How many times does a multi-billion dollar corporate conglomerate need to take something beloved and merchandise t...
