Last year, we wrote about the pleasure of finally seeing character actor Dale Dickey - so memorable in roles in films including Hell And High Water and Winter’s Bone - finally get her teeth into a lead character, with Max Walker-Silverman’s gentle drama A Love Song. Now she’s back in a very different role, in Karl R Hearne’s The G, as foul-mouthed, no-nonsense gran Ann, who has vengeance on her mind after a corrupt legal guardian (Bruce Ramsay) steals her property and targets her loved ones. Spirited away to a care home, she begins to take matters into her own hands as her granddaughter Emma (Romaine Denis) also sets about trying to liberate her gran - who she calls “The G” - leading to a taut and enjoyably complex thriller.

With Il Buco, Michelangelo Frammartino returns to the Calabrian countryside 12 years after Le Quattro Volte. Oscillating between a shepherd slowly dying and a nearby cave-diving expedition, Frammartino and cinematographer Renata Berta capture the movement inside their static frames with elegance. A soccer ball is kicked back and forth over the cave entrance, upping the stakes of an errant kick, burning magazine pages float down into the darkness illuminating the cave depths for the explorers and the audience—Il Buco is an experiential ode to death as the final frontier. – Caleb H.

The Gotham Awards, the first prominent awards ceremony of the fall season, has announced its 2022 nominations, recognizing 23 feature films, 15 series, and 35 performances in twelve award categories.
While films like Noah Baumbach’s “White Noise” were deemed ineligible due to the organization’s rule to only consider films with a budget below 35 million, prominent awards contenders like “TÁR” and “Everything Everywhere All at Once” were recognized in several categories including Best Feature and Outstanding Lead Performance (the awards body removed gendered acting categories last year).
The Gotham Awards are meant to honor worthy independent films and series and their writers, directors, producers, and actors, meaning that several TV series like “Abbott Elementary,” “Pachinko,” and “Yellowjackets” were nominated for awards as well.
The awards body previously announced that the two recipients of the Performer Tributes this year would be Adam Sandler (“Hustle”) and Michelle Williams (“The Fabelmans”), and that the Hulu film...

This year’s Gotham Awards are taking place Nov. 28 at Cipriani Wall Street in New York.
“Pose” star Angelica Ross and Executive Director of The Gotham Film & Media Institute Jeffrey Sharp announced the nominations live from Variety‘s YouTube channel on Tuesday at 9 a.m. Pt.
“Tár” leads the field with five nominations, including three acting noms, and nods for best feature and screenplay. Coming in next with three nominations are “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” “Aftersun” and “The Inspection.”

The Picturehouse release of National Geographic Documentary Films The Territory grossed a solid 26.4K in six markets (eight screens) for a PSA of 3,308 with its climate change message attracting a broader than typical age range for a theatrical doc, especially lately, according to Picturehouse CEO Bob Berney.
He called it “very encouraging to see younger people attending and asking for ways they can help support the indigenous people of Brazil… The film is a call to action as well as a beautifully crafted work.”
The first feature by Alex Pritz, produced by Darren Aronofsky and Sigrid Dyekjaer, follows the fight of the indigenous Uru-eu-wau-wau people in Brazil – less than 190 of them – against land-grabbing incursions of non-native farmers causing major deforestation. “We are getting a kind of younger activist demographic that is really nice to see. And obviously in New York we also had a lot of Brazilians that came, because there is a community there.

Lionsgate thriller Fall will make an estimated 2.5+ million this weekend at 1,548 locations for a PSA of about 1,618. The audience was broader than it might have been after a company founded by director Scott Mann swapped dozens of f-words, moving Fall from an R to a PG-13 rating.
The firm, called Flawless, launched last year to specialize in foreign-language “vubbing,” for visual dubbing, which uses artificial intelligence to subtly shift lip and facial movements to match words spoken. But in Fall, its first project, the urgency was around English-language expletives by English-language actors during a stressful high-altitude shoot in the middle of Covid. Costly reshoots weren’t an option, nor really were cuts.
Grace Caroline Currey and Virginia Gardner play best friends and expert climbers stranded 2,000 feet up atop a rickety, abandoned TV tower. Mann shot Fall independently. “We ended up with a film we were very excited about,...

July 2022 was the best month for theaters since 2019, but it ends on a weak note: For the first time since May (just before Paramount opened “Top Gun: Maverick), grosses for all films will total under 100 million. This particular fallow patch won’t last long with “Bullet Train” (Sony) starring Brad Pitt opening next Friday; it could open to 40 million or higher. After that, theaters may have to wait for October for another significant performer when Warner Bros. opens “Black Adam” starring Dwayne Johnson.
That’s assuming it doesn’t underwhelm like some DC Comics adaptations, like this weekend’s animated “DC League of Super-Pets” (Warners). It’s #1 this weekend, but with a less-than-stellar 23 million. By comparison, that’s less than a quarter of the opening gross for “Minions: The Rise of Gru;” another animated Universal title, last spring’s “The Bad Guys,” cost 90 million less and opened to 1 million more.

The sun is harsh in Max Walker-Silverman’s A Love Song.

Ensconced in her small trailer sitting in a lakeside patch of dirt somewhere in Colorado, the widow waits for a man, also familiar with loss, she knew decades ago. She wrote to him — will he show up? It’s not a spoiler to reveal that he does, in the form of Wes Studi, and theirs is a bittersweet, gently melancholic connection […]

Lena Dunham is back. Sharp Stick — the writer/director/actor’s follow to HBO series Girls and her first film since Tiny Furniture (2010) – opens in LA at Landmark’s renovated single-screen NuArt Theatre and at the Quad Cinema in NYC. It expands to 40 to 50 screens next weekend, heading to about 100 thereafter – a mix of AMC, Alamo, Laemmle and Harkins circuits and top U.S. arthouses.
Presales have been strong, said Utopia’s marketing and distribution VP Kyle Greenberg. A handful of showings with Dunham Q&As are sold out, natch. The film, which Utopia acquired out of Sundance, releases on PVOD August 16. Deadline review here.
Dunham writes directs, produces and stars with Kristine Froseth, Jon Bernthal, Luka Sabbat, Scott Speedman, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Taylour Paige and Jennifer Jason Leigh.

Dale Dickey is not jaded, even after nearly three decades in Hollywood. The actress’ earnest humility, infectious curiosity, and unpretentiousness when talking about her craft and decades-long career would feel refreshing from anyone, let alone someone who has been a successful working thespian in film and TV for nearly thirty years. The Indie Spirit winner has dozens of credits to her name, in projects of all genres and sizes, including “Winter’s Bone,” “Breaking Bad,” “True Blood,” and “Palm Springs.” But now she has a new one to add to the resume: leading lady.
Known for portraying memorable, hard-scrabble women, the character actress is finally breaking untraveled ground with her first on-camera lead role in the tender-hearted indie romance “A Love Song,” director Max Walker-Silverman’s debut feature, which premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival to stellar reviews. “I’m not complaining, but I’ve never really had the luxury of choosing projects.

“DC League of Super-Pets” from Warner Bros. and DC made a super 2.2 million at the box office in its Thursday pre-shows from 3,200 locations.
The animated film features the voice talent of Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart as the lovable and loyal dog companions to Superman, Batman and the like. The film is projected for a 25 million opening this weekend.
For some comparisons, Universal’s animated “The Bad Guys” this spring made 1.2 million in its preview screenings and opened to 24 million, and it has ultimately made 97 million in its run. Johnson’s “Jungle Cruise,” which opened this same weekend last year but also opened in the midst of the pandemic, brought in roughly 2.7 million in its Thursday previews before opening to 35 million. And WB’s “The Lego Movie 2” in 2019 made approximately 2.1 million in its Thursday shows and opened to 34 million.

Writer-director Max Walker-Silverman returned to a central question while writing and filming “A Love Song:” is the pain of losing someone worth having had them?
“At the same time that I was falling in love to some of those around me, they were in various ways falling out of it, whether that was by death, or divorce, or all the many ways that our lives can be changed,” Walker-Silverman told TheWrap.
“A Love Song” follows Faye, a lone traveler who visits a rural camp ground and awaits a visit from her old flame, Lito, who traverses his own journey through the West.
Fixated with admiration for veteran actor Dale Dickey, Walker-Silverman wrote the film centered around envisioning Dickey as his protagonist. “Picturing her in this role just gave me a huge amount of confidence to allow the silence of the world to play a part in it, because I...

‘A Love Song’ Film Review: Dale Dickey Delivers a Career-Best Performance in Transcendent Love Story
This review originally ran following the film’s world premiere at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival.
If a weathered heart still searching for tenderness in the twilight of life were a movie, it would be “A Love Song.” This miraculously radiant first feature from writer-director Max Walker-Silverman tells a Western romance amid constellations and birds, delayed letters and brief encounters, and the worthwhile sorrow of loving and yearning to be loved.
Placid in her self-sufficient lifestyle, lonely widow Faye (Dale Dickey) eagerly awaits the arrival of an important guest in the mountainous vastness of the Colorado terrain. On campsite seven, she catches shellfish for dinner and listens to her trusty radio, a battery-fueled portal to her emotional state that always plays a pertinent tune at the appropriate time.
With early shots of sturdy flowers, gorgeous in their bravery as they thrive on arid ground, Walker-Silverman makes a visual analogy to his leading lady’s gentle fortitude.

“You know me?” Dale Dickey and Wes Studi vulnerably ask each other when their long-lost characters finally reunite in “A Love Song” (2022). By now, we sure do. Studi and Dickey are the very definitions of gritty, credible character actors who’ve imprinted themselves on cinephiles’ memories with decades of committed, vanity-less work. But now, director Max Walker-Silverman’s debut film—a charming country romance out July 29 from Bleecker Street—unfurls a new terrain.

Most romance films typically center around young love and growing old together. Less common are stories about finding love at an older age or simply being older and in love. But isn’t a romance story romantic regardless of whatever age one finds love? Max Walker-Silverman thinks so, and his film “A Love Song” proves it.
