Documentary on a rape in Ohio of an underage girl by two high school football players, the rape culture in that high school, and the reaction of the community to the crime. Sometimes I'm still shocked about how so many people are willing to blame the victim, especially if the perpetrators are considered important. Very well done.

First Man 2018
Excellent low key film of a thoughtful man who seemed pretty low-key in life but had a lot more going on in his mind and heart than he revealed. Excellent performances, beautiful cinematography, excellent direction. Amazing what people will do to follow their dream of going into space, riding on top of tin boxes set atop bombs.

Beautiful performance by the always superb Matthias Schoenaerts drives this touching story of a violent repressed convict and a wild horse. Story could have used more fleshing out and more emphasis on cinematography, but still a lovely and heartfelt movie.
