I’ve been enjoying so many great films at Slamdance! Here’s my first article.
“The LeMieurs” is such a personal documentary about the changes in one family who work in the funeral business. Double feature this with “Thank You and Good Night.”

Just catching up on this episode and I’m so sorry but Morgan and Chels for president. I know neither of them want it, but it’s the future your children deserve.

Catherine O’Hara in “Beetlejuice.”
The pinnacle of comedy for me as a child was Catherine O’Hara in “Beetlejuice.” Her timing, the subtle but impactful choices made her one of the greats. It’s truly incomprehensible to lose such a legend.
If anyone is going to pull off an interior performance about grief, it’s Claire Foy. At times, a touch slow, “H is for Hawk” is a compelling film about loss, love, and finding yourself on the other side of grief. Full review below!
