For me, the Landmark was no Arclight Hollywood (also still shuttered) but it was handy and a much better place to watch a movie than the dreaded AMC chain with its requisite 45 minutes of trailers. I will lament its loss with this weekend movie guide. You know the drill, gang. I will sift through the LA Times movie pages and give you my knee jerk and gut reaction to what's on screen.
If there's a neighborhood and independent movie cinema near you, try and see (or sit through) one of the films below.
Downton Abbey - A New Era: My version of a Marvel movie. I have to go opening weekend.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness: A Marvel-type movie that will see on no weekend.
The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent: Strictly for Nicolas Cage fans because it's all about...well...Nicolas Cage.
The Northman: Medieval shit which I also always skip.
Montana Story: Estranged siblings return to the state of their childhood. Expect at least three scenes in a Walmart.
Happening: In 1960s France, a young pregnant girl considers abortion. Who leaked?
Petite Maman: Something from France....also regularly avoided by moi.
Vortex: An aging French couple deal with declining health. See Petite Maman.
The Duke: Jim Broadbent and Helen Mirren in a film about a taxi driver who steals a Goya painting. Wait, let me guess. The painting is of a Duke??
Everything Everywhere All At Once: Some sci-fi thing with Michelle Yeoh. It just sounds like something I would avoid, too.
Operation Mincemeat: British Intelligence fights the Nazis in WWII. Of course, nobody under the age of 40 these days even knows what WWII was.
Firestarter: Another unoriginal idea to remake a Stephen King book and movie.
Dinner last night: Sandwich.
