On August 18, 2025, I was briefly transported fifty years into the past. I was at theNew Beverly Cinema, a classic Los Angeles repertory theatre owned by classic Los Angeles filmmakerQuentin Tarantino, alongside a packed house of other film nerds – including, quite beautifully,Fred Durstwearing aLimp Bizkitsweatshirt. As we filed into the house, we enjoyed a litany of lobby decorations, concession choices, and pre-show music all impeccably curated from 1969. It was the pitch-perfect, table-setting appetizer to our main course – a 35mm screening ofOnce Upon a Time… in Hollywoodfollowed by a discussion with Tarantino and his three stars:Leonardo DiCaprio,Brad Pitt, andMargot Robbie....

At last, the first trailer for the mysteriousOverlordhas arrived. The movie, from Paramount Pictures andJ.J. Abrams' Bad Robot, follows a group of U.S. paratroopers who stumble across a Nazi experimentation of supernatural forces meant to fight the Allies. The film is directed byJulius Avery(Son of a Gun), from a screenplay byBilly Ray(Captain Phillips) andMark L. Smith(The Revenant). As with any J.J.-produced joint, the trailer comes with a significant amount of “awhaaa?...

Created byMaya ErskineandAnna Konklewith AwesomenessTV and The Lonely Island’sAndy Samberg,Akiva Schaffer, andJorma Tacconeonboard as executive producers, the 10-episode series stars Erskine and Konkle playing seventh-grade versions of themselves surrounded by real grade-school actors....

Pitch Perfectopened small, but was a modestly profitable film that found an even bigger audience on home video and cable. And likeAustin Powersbefore it, the sequelPitch Perfect 2exploded when it hit theaters in May as it made nearly $200 million domestically and enjoyed a larger international appeal.Pitch Perfect 2also suffers from most of the problems of comedy sequels, but has an engaging enough cast that makes it modestly pleasurable. Elizabeth Banks, who produced the first film, is now in the director’s chair, and she does an okay job at wrangling her cast....

Camera technology has advanced tremendously over the last decade or two, as more and more filmmakers have stretched the limits of digital cinematography. And now, with the advent of 4K televisions and Blu-rays, we can experience that pristine image quality like never before. But while most new releases are now coming to 4K Blu-ray, not all films are worth the increased price. One that is, however, isRed Sparrow, a dramatic spy thriller directed byFrancis Lawrence(The Hunger Games: Catching Fire) and starringJennifer Lawrence, that was released to little fanfare earlier this year....

Quentin Tarantinosure likes to play with history. He did this, most jarringly, in 2009’sInglorious Basterds. Believe it or not, Hitler was not roasted in a movie theater and peppered with bullets by avenging Jews. This year, whenOnce Upon a Time… In Hollywoodpremiered, fans got to wondering if Tarantino would be telling the real story of the Manson murders, or some fantasy version. If you’ve seen the movie, you know that the historical record was altered just a little....

The Affair, Showtime’s raw and emotionally difficult portrait of love, marriage, fidelity, and trust, changed its game with its Season 2 finale. For the last two years, the show has felt held back by its flash-forward murder plot, particularly in Season 1, where it didn’t seem to match either the tone or the compelling nature of the rest of the story.
