#TheBrideMovie was a fucking blast in all the best ways that a batshit crazy, swing for the fences, avante-garde retelling of a monster movie love story can be! Jessie Buckley delivers another brilliantly crafted and powerhouse performance as The Bride. It’s her unique smarts as an actress that turns her journey of a woman finding her own voice into an engaging unhinged ride and avoids eye rolling pretentiousness. Christian Bale delivers a surprisingly soulful and achingly charming Frankenstein’s monster who is desperate to find his idealized version of love. Their wild, primal chemistry is just perfection here. Maggie Gyllenhaal lets her artistic freak flag fly as the director of this one. She vacillates between black and white and color as she loops in references to past Frankenstein movies (and a certain author), evokes the best of the 1930s gangster movies and song and dance movies, doesn’t skimp on the gore or sexuality, and lays out a raging (jazz like) commentary about the decades of violence and erasure women have endured in our patriarchal society that would drive anybody to madness. Annette Benning is having so much fun, but is criminally underused here. And the less said about the undercooked Sarsgaard and (miscast) Penelope Cruz subplot, the better. They’re my only criticisms of the movie. Look, @thebridefilm is so out there that it’s not gonna work for everybody. BUT it totally worked for me. And if it gets its hooks in ya from the beginning then I think you’re gonna love the glorious brilliance and intoxicating madness of this broken Juliet and Romeo story. 4 out of 5 stars for me.

Some more from my interviews w/the cast of #CaughtStealing! Adding more to the Austin Butler praise, not only did he immediately recognize me (virtually I might add) two years after our multiple run ins on the Elvis campaign, but also expressed his enthusiasm for getting to catch up and bummed we missed each other on Dune. A class act through and through. Forever in his corner.
DiscussingFilm@DiscussingFilm

Austin Butler tells us he dreamed about working with Darren Aronofsky long before ‘CAUGHT STEALING’ “The pivotal times in my life watching his movies, I watched ‘Requiem for a Dream’ very young. I watched ‘Pi’ very young... I had wanted to work with him since I was 12.”

@kirkneverdied I mean, aren’t there enough ads already? Basically a 7pm showing doesn’t start until 725-730. That’s boring, only good for when you’re running late. A longer ad session would not be any good.

Of all the reasons to block me (and he did block me), because I don’t think more ads before movies will boost theater attendance? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

What #BenAffleck said!! @Criterion when is the 4K of ARMAGEDDON coming out??? Millions of us have been waiting on it for YEARS. (BTW I love him having a good sense of humor about his commentary track on that disc. It's commentary gold. 😂)

I would like to officially submit myself as an Oscar voter to the @TheAcademy . It would be an honor. As a critic/reviewer of Latin descent with a healthy following and a decade's worth of experience reviewing movies, I promise to watch all the movies so I can honestly vote on them. I will happily replace any of the people who pulled the crap laid out in this Variety article and I promise to never discuss my ballot or voting procedures with the press. Just shooting my shot. DM me. I am serious.

Some Academy members simply press play on the app to satisfy the system’s viewing requirement — then mute the audio or switch tabs. “The app only needs to see that you watched it,” says one voter. “It doesn’t know if you’re sitting there.” variety.com/2025/film/awar…
