    Wicked Little Letters

    ★★★½

    I was mildly disappointed by who the letter writer was because that was my guess in the first few minutes of the movie. Maybe it wasn't supposed to be a huge surprise. The movie reminded me of the season finale of the third season of Curb Your Enthusiasm: swearing is fun! The acting performances were good, but the movie was slight.

  • Killers of the Flower Moon

    Killers of the Flower Moon

    ★★★★

    I tried to watch this on an international flight last year and slept through most of it. By the way, airplanes are the worst places to watch movies. The three leads were excellent. They provided a dunce, a regal sufferer, and a serpentine evildoer. I was worried that I would lose interest because of the movie's length, but that did not happen. I suppose I could look into reading the book, but I don't know if I will.

    ★★★

    This is what I get for not paying attention. I meant to watch The Killing of a Chinese Bookie (which I will do soon), but I got a history of the fortune cookie. Details...

    Invisible Life

    ★★★★

    The emotional tale of two sisters in Rio de Janeiro who are separated by the men in their lives (particularly, their father). One follows her heart and has it broken by a young man. She returns to Brazil, but is exiled from the family. The other marries, but doesn’t seem to have much love in her life. A tough weekend for women with this and Raise the Red Lantern. The final section that moved into the future held the sad heart of the movie.
