Review of Café Society (2016)

By Gerald Peary (163) for Arts Fuse (166) on 28 Jul 2016

Review of Magician: The Astonishing Life and Work of Orson Welles (2014)

By Gerald Peary (163) for Arts Fuse (166) on 22 May 2016

I'm sad to report that at a mere 1 hour and 34 minutes Magician is rushed and sometimes choppy, leaping through Welles's bountiful life…

Review of Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter (2014)

By Gerald Peary (163) for Arts Fuse (166) on 22 May 2016

Review of Drunk Stoned Brilliant Dead (2015)

By Gerald Peary (163) for Arts Fuse (166) on 22 May 2016

Review of Far from the Madding Crowd (2015)

By Gerald Peary (163) for Arts Fuse (166) on 22 May 2016

Review of Everybody Wants Some!! (2016)

By Gerald Peary (163) for Arts Fuse (166) on 14 Apr 2016

Review of City of Gold (2016)

By Gerald Peary (163) for Arts Fuse (166) on 31 Mar 2016

Review of Hail, Caesar! (2016)

By Gerald Peary (163) for Arts Fuse (166) on 19 Feb 2016

Review of By the Sea (2015)

By Gerald Peary (163) for Arts Fuse (166) on 01 Jan 2016

Review of Frank (2014)

By Gerald Peary (163) for Arts Fuse (166) on 25 Aug 2014

Review of The Grand Seduction (2014)

By Gerald Peary (163) for Arts Fuse (166) on 25 Jun 2014
