WOMEN TALKING IS A TRIUMPH

QUICK NOTES ON FRIDAY'S FILMS

DOWNSIZING:  Liked not loved.  Seems a little longish.  Hong Chau is fab

DARKEST HOUR: Gary Oldman is amazing as Winston Churchill.   Rest of the cast is solid but Oldman gives a performance for the ages.

FACES/PLACES: Um, a film that was lauded at Cannes...maybe too much Varda worship.

Today's likely films: Lean on Pete, Lady Bird and Wonderstruck...then see how we feel.
