After close to 5 weeks of traveling I will be winding down my Boston/Montreal/Cannes/Spain/Greece trip on Sunday. I will have to catch up with what I missed, specifically “Toy Story 4,” and “Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story” There’s a lot of TV to catch up to as well (I’m thinking Ava DuVernay’s “When They See Us", HBO’s ”Chernobyl” and “Big Little Lies”). The constant travelling continues for a final trek next Tuesday at NYC’s Alamo Drafthouse for a special “Midsommar” screening, courtesy of the fine folks over at A24. Then it’s back to Montreal for 3 weeks of the Fantasia Film Festival.
Gyllenhaal says women face systemic barriers in an industry that may not value the kinds of films they want to make. Roy Price’s response? Watch “The Bride.”
