Blink and you’ll miss it.
That’s exactly how we’re feeling as June rolls in and we are reminded that half othe year has come and gone with only a handful of really memorable movies and with only one or two worth any note coming in June. Yet… Coleen, Dale (Letterboxd) and I (Letterboxd) gather our wits and run down this month’s opening movies.
Is it really summer movie season? Because judging by these titles, you’d be hard pressed to guess it.

Have to echo the Mustang sentiment. Although I didn’t see Theeb until after the Oscars, I was rooting for Mustang to win Best Foreign film. This is what a film examining women in a male-dominated culture should be. Although if you get a chance, definitely check out fellow nominee Embrace of the Serpent.

Felt like a modern surreal faux-doc experience similar to Fitzcarraldo.
*Rams (in the theater) was pretty good too. Lots of dour subtle Icelandic humor that had a lot of heart.
