    The Last Blockbuster

    ★★★½

    The nostalgia for the once corporate juggernaut is overblown (often for comedic effect). The real story here is the family that keeps the eponymous rental store running; and the longing for the lost communal aspect of physically renting a movie, of recommending or being recommended a film and momentarily finding some kind of human connection (he posted on Letterboxd).

    B.B. King: The Life of Riley

    ★★★★

    Turns out the man who was a masterful story teller with his guitar is equally riveting sitting in front of a camera and just sharing stories of his life and career experiences. A king indeed.
