In the midst of what is currently on pace to be a record-breaking year at the box office, Disney, the studio leading the charge, offers up Ant-Man and the Wasp, the 20th installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and expectations are climbing. At the same time, Universal debuted The First Purge, the fourth installment in the popular Purge franchise on Wednesday, looking to continue a string of successful releases in that franchise. The same weekend last year saw the top twelve deliver just over $200 million and, based on our expectations, we're looking at a weekend at or just below that number as 2018 continues its strong performance. Currently at the top of the box office world is Disney, accounting for over 36% of the overall domestic box office in 2018 on the back of just five films. Two of those five films are the latest entries in the Marvel Cinematic Universe * Black Panther...

“Sharp Edges” (as in blades) is the perfect title for a documentary about Tonya Harding. But who would have had the prescience to think of that title a decade before her infamy? Last year, when “I, Tonya” came out, there were those (like me) who flipped for it, and those who didn’t. The appearance this week of “Sharp Edges,” a documentary about Harding made in 1986, eight years before the incident that made her famous, isn’t likely to change minds in either camp. Yet as an “I, Tonya” believer, I watched this fascinating found object of a movie, directed by Sandra Luckow as her senior-thesis project at Yale, eager to see if it supported or undercut the vision of Tonya Harding and her demons put forth by Craig Gillespie’s audacious awards-bait docudrama. What it reveals, to me, is how close to the truth of Harding’s life “I,...

Allison Janney might be about to win her first Academy Award for her playing Tonya Harding’s mother Lavona Golden in I, Tonya — but her portrayal isn’t exactly like the real-life woman according to someone who knows her.
Harding’s childhood friend Sandra Luckow tells People that the movie stretched some truths when it came to Harding’s allegedly abusive mother.
“In some ways, I have to say that she was no more cruel than a lot of skating mothers at the ice arena,” Luckow says. “She just did it with a lot more honesty. Did Mrs. Harding yell...

I, Tonya, an unconventional biopic about the unconventional, embattled yet iconic '90s figure skater, is based on "irony free, wildly contradictory and totally true" interviews with Tonya Harding and her one-time husband, Jeff Gillooly. (We're told as much via title card at the start of the movie.)
While the conflicting details of those discussions constitute the crux of the film, many key moments in Harding's life have played out in front of the cameras, allowing for a side-by-side comparison of actual events and as restaged by Margot Robbie as Tonya Harding. Either watch these videos before seeing I, Tonya, out now, or come back afterward to truly appreciate how closely the movie nails it.
The Real Tonya Harding, Then and Now
Donning an array of permed wigs and bedazzled unitards, Robbie plays Harding from her teenage years into her 20s -- then via makeup and prosthetics, she is aged up to play Harding at 44. This vintage news reel...
