    Sundance: “RUN RABBIT RUN” and “BIRTH/REBIRTH”

    “Run Rabbit Run”, written by Hannah Kent and directed by Diana Reid, is an Australian creeper that is essentially more of a psychological thriller than full-on horror.

    Sundance: “SOMETIMES I THINK ABOUT DYING”

    In director Rachel Lambert’s “Sometimes I Think About Dying,” Daisy Ridley’s Fran is there, but she isn’t there. Life is moving, but not forward. Existing is questionable.

    Adapted from a 2019 short film, one that was based on the play “Killers” by Kevin Armento, Lambert’s film gives Daisy Ridley the proper role to showcase her impressive talents in. In a dreary Oregon town

    Sundance: what’s on tap

    In the classic 1969 Western “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” Robert Redford’s Sundance teases Paul Newman’s Cassidy about his big schemes. Butch replies, “Boy, I got vision and the rest of the world wears bifocals.”

    “THE PALE BLUE EYE”: a candlelit murder tale that uncovers the darker facet of our intellect | REVIEW

    With “The Pale Blue Eye” director Scott Cooper has found his mojo again.

    Ever since his excellent 2009 directorial debut “Crazy Heart” and his 2013 sophomore effort “Out of the Furnace,” Cooper had struggled to find a strength in his follow up projects.

    THE YEAR’S TEN BEST MOVIES: “The Banshees of Inisherin” and others

    Nobody said it was easy. Being a film critic in the year 2022 was certainly difficult, as this year goes down in the history books as one of the worst I’ve ever seen.

    2022 saw one of the most lackluster of all Sundance Festivals (although I found a few gems), David O. Russell made his only bad film (“Amsterdam”) and the public turned their backs on directors such as Steven Spielberg
