Seen before a screening of The Secret Agent which was excellent and came replete with title cards.

I was surprised to see a trailer for Sirāt as I'd recently seen that it will be opening the spring 2026 season at Cinematheque on 22 January.

Coming Soon: 14 December 2025

Seen before Sentimental Value. First we were treated to a commercial from the Metropolitan Opera before a whopping 9 trailers. Uff da!

Seen before Keeper which I found to be OK. It had some very neat bits but too many horror movie tropes. I appreciated the conceit and how the movie came across as a slasher but was anything but. Plus Tatiana Maslany is easy on the eyes.

As before, a short Nuremburg trailer was shown twice before the trailers started in earnest.

Next we got a red band trailer.

A trailer for Hokum was next but I cannot find a trailer online.

Seen before a screening of Die My Love which I enjoyed. And I enjoyed it despite seeing a lot of my relationship with my wife onscreen. A lot of bad memories were rekindled as I watched a fictional marriage unravel, especially the scenes where Jennifer Lawrence's Grace is confrontational and openly contemptuous of her husband, Jackson, as played by Robert Pattinson. That happened a lot in our marriage.

Despite certain elements of the movie hitting close to home, I was somehow able to watch at a distance. These scenes were familiar and got me thinking but I never found myself feeling the stress of those situations deep down.

I am looking forward to this one.

 

Another one I am looking forward to.

A new flick from Jim Jarmusch!
