I was kinda all over the map with this group of ten films. Bookended by films I’d meant to see or missed at festivals (ELLE, TALLULAH, DEIDRA AND LANEY ROB A TRAIN, GIMME DANGER), the first bit of homework for DIFF (BERLIN SYNDROME), and a couple “look at this good movie with all these stars that made a beeline for VOD (BRIMSTONE, THE HOLLOW POINT).
So, what have you been watching…?
