| | Greetings Cinemapolitans!
- The always great Ben Mendelsohn (Place Beyond the Pines, Animal Kingdom) returns to our screens in the subtle gambling movie, Mississippi Grind. The latest from writing/directing team Anna Boden & Ryan Fleck (Half Nelson), this throwback to 70s cinema sets Mendehlson's Gerry off on a road trip with fellow gambler Curtis (Ryan Reynolds). Stellar performances from both result in what Variety calls "a picture driven far less by narrative incident than by its gently pulsing comic undercurrents and vivid contemplation of character."
- Back again after a smash-hit sneak preview, Austrian thriller Goodnight Mommy returns for a week-long run on Friday. Twin boys Lukas and Elias are at the heart of this puzzle of a film as they struggle with a mother returned from facial surgery who doesn't seem herself. Combining elements of horror, psychological thriller, and the surreal, this first feature from Serverin Fiala and Veronika Franz is intricately composed. As the Hollywood Reporter puts it: "The story's acceleration from anxiety to panic to hellish chaos is expertly managed, but more impressively, so is the control of internal narrative logic."
- Also coming this Friday is a sort of anti-rom-com from writer/director Leslye Headland (Bachelorette). Sleeping with Other People stars Alison Brie and Jason Sudeikis as a pair of reunited sex addicts attempting to keep things platonic. As that plan inevitably falls apart, the film eschews the usual rom-com plot devices and replaces them with some honest characters. According to Jesse Hassenger of the A.V. Club: "Sleeping With Other People is very funny (never a sure thing with a rom-com), but more surprising than its laughs are the emotions that sneak up on both the characters and the movie."
