In Bruges (2008)

Martin McDonagh, director of Banshees of Inisherin, made his directorial feature debut with this dark comedy. Between the uneasy laughter, watch-between-your-fingers moments, and Catholic guilt, there’s a lot to unpack. Brendan Gleeson and Colin Ferrall play two hit men on a mysterious and fateful trip in Bruges. And it’s a Christmas movie. A miserable, vulgar Christmas movie.

Bald Move Prestige - Hail, Caesar! (2016)

We’ve seen the latest Coen brother’s film, “Hail, Caesar!”, and it’s really… something. Funny, but not hilarious, interesting but ultimately meaningless… or is it? A crazy stew of singing and dancing and politics and religion and featuring more star power than the Milky Way, like most Coen films it will probably reward multiple views.
