Steele Wool (2019)
Bring on the imitators
OK, where to start? This guy did a film all on his own, a one-man wrecking crew. It should have sucked. Seriously. But somehow, it not only doesn't suck, it's REALLY GOOD! Sure, you can just sit back and watch the movie and have a great time. Or, you could, like me, become totally inspired to do your own film this way. This is "Star Wars" for a new generation of no-budget filmmakers. Forget the old rules, Cappello shatters them. He proves that all you need is a little bit of - OK, a whole lot of - resourcefulness and something to say. Bring on the imitators!
The Truth About Marriage (2018)
Move over Animal Planet
I have watched every one of Roger Nygard's films and have come away impressed each time. He is a master at combining wit and insight, showing you the human condition in all its absurdity and sparing no one, except maybe himself. With his latest, The Truth About Marriage, Nygard has given this hallowed institution the same critical eye you'd expect from an alien visitor with a scorching sense of humor. I loved this film, despite being a happily (I think?!?) married man. His best to date.
