Went to the NYFF this weekend to see "Manchester By The Sea" & "Moonlight".
MBTS had everyone in the entire theater crying their eyes including me. Haunting film about family tragedy and grief. Casey Affleck performance is down right excellent. All the Oscar talk on Affleck for Best Actor is 100% justified. Highly Recommend everyone see this film when it releases next month.
Moonlight is another exceptional film. Told in three parts about a boy that's dealing with being gay in an urban community, Miami, and how it affects him as he becomes a grown man. The acting & script is superb. I don't want to give too much away but I hope everyone sees this when it comes out on the 21st.
I'm seeing Jackie starring Natalie Portman next week Thursday and James Gray's The Lost City of Z next week Saturday.
Guess I'll give a quick review on those two as well.
