I just saw Rebuilding, what a gem, one of the best I’ve seen all year. Josh O’Connor and Lily LaTorre are superb but the whole cast is so good. This gentle film is a revelation.

Saw Oliver Laxe’s mesmerizing and often startling new movie Sirat at @filmlinc.bsky.social. It was shot in the southern Moroccan desert and should be viewed on the big screen. Laxe is very engaging in person.

Jesse Eisenberg’s new play The Ziegfeld Files is a funny, poignant set of readings between a patient and therapist of recordings reflecting on marriage, parenthood and self-acceptance. Eisenberg begins reading at a breathless pace with many jokes; when he finally slows down he touches the heart.
