Check out these new films coming to Tribeca Shortlist in June
The Hunt (2013) - Lucas, a kindly daycare employee, is wrongly accused of exposing himself to a child, leading the parents in this small, tight-knit community to converge around him in a sinister swirl of persecution in which innocence matters not nearly as much as popular opinion. Mads Mikkelsen (Rogue One) won the Best Actor Award at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival for his nuanced, sympathetic lead performance. Directed by
Thomas Vinterberg (upcoming Kursk with Léa Seydoux &
Colin Firth).
The House I Live In (2012) - An intense and tragic look at a prison system
CROWDED with non-violent drug offenders, primarily black and facing steep sentences. "Called a 'Silent Holocaust' against blacks,"
Roger Ebert wrote in his review, "Jarecki's film makes a shattering case against the War on Drugs." Directed by Eugene Jarecki (Promised Land - Cannes 2017).
WATCH RECOMMENDATION:
Brett Ratner
Gone Baby Gone (2007) -
Casey Affleck (Manchester by the Sea) is Patrick Kenzie, a private investigator in a rough Boston neighborhood, in this film adaption of Dennis Lehane's novel of the same name. When a four-year-old girl is kidnapped and the cops offer little help, Patrick and his partner/girlfriend (Michelle Monaghan) are hired by her family to find answers, but instead they find layers of corruption on all sides.
Directed by
Ben Affleck.
Citizen Ruth (1996) - Ruth Stoops was more concerned with huffing fumes than she was about her birth control, and it landed her pregnant and in the middle of a hot debate.
Laura Dern (Big Little Lies, Twin Peaks) leads an impressive cast in this comedic satire of political maneuvering featuring the directorial debut of
Alexander Payne (Sideways).
WATCH RECOMMENDATION:
Alec Baldwin (SNL)
Richard Pryor...Here And Now (1983) - Comedian
Richard Pryor's final concert film, recorded in front of a rowdy audience at Saenger Theatre in New Orleans. A relaxed and seven-months sober Pryor jokes honestly about drugs, marriage, race and politics, going in and out of characters, accents and affectations, and handling hecklers with aplomb. Directed by
Richard Pryor.
WATCH RECOMMENDATIONS:
Phoebe Robinson, Lily Taylor
The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming (1966) - This American dramedy set on the tiny fictional island of unpronounceable "Gloucester" is riled up when a lone Russian submarine runs aground. Fear, panic, and bad decisions run amok as Walt Whittaker, played by the inimitable
Carl Reiner, tries to save his family and fellow Americans from themselves when confronted with our famous Cold War enemies. Has everyone gone mad? Directed by
Norman Jewison.
