Coming soon! To theaters near me and you


(Elizabeth Olsen stars in Martha Marcy May Marlene)

Very excited to see the LA Times's "Fall Sneaks" list, highlighting new movies that will be released between September 9 and November 4. That's nine weekends of film-y fun, in case you weren't counting. I'm especially looking forward to I Don't Know How She Does It (written by screenwriter/superwoman Aline Brosh McKenna), and Martha Marcy May Marleneamong others.

The Skin I Live In

Pedro Almodóvar's latest film, The Skin I Live In premieres in the U.S. next month. In the film, Antonio Banderas plays a plastic surgeon whose wife is seriously burned in a car crash, causing her death. He becomes obsessed with creating an indestructible human skin that cannot be burned, and must find a human subject upon which to test his creation. The film's premise simultaneously attracts and repels me. What do you think of the most recent trailer?
