Art is Its Own Reward

It’s been a week, hasn’t it. Let’s see what’s opening.

Dark Phoenix: Jean Grey loses it once again. [Rad]

Echo in the Canyon: Documentary unpacks that sweet California sound.

Framing John DeLorean: Meta doc tackles an outsized subject.

Mouthpiece: A thrilling expansion of the play. [Glenn]

Pavarotti: Ron Howard explores another music icon. [Glenn]

Project Ithaca: Alien invasion thriller, with … Deragh Campbell?

The Secret Life of Pets 2: They’re back! Except for Louis CK.

The Souvenir: Joanna Hogg’s latest? It’s a masterpiece.

The Tomorrow Man: John Lithgow and Blythe Danner prepare themselves.

Wild Nights With Emily: Molly Shannon is Emily Dickinson, libertine. Neat!

I also reviewed the new season of Black Mirror, which I liked a lot better than pretty much every other season of the show.  And there are only three episodes in this cycle, so it’s not a huge commitment.
