REAR WINDOW

Dir. Alfred Hitchcock • USA, 1954 • 112 min. • Rated PG

NR

Nominated! 4 Canadian Screen Awards: Achievement in Editing, Supporting Actor, Cinematography & Sound Editing

"If ever there was a setting crying out for cinematic exploitation, it's the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. A tacky tourist wonderland that barely masks the grit of a company town gone to seed, the current state of the area is an ideal staging ground for a nasty little neo-noir or tight psychological thriller.

"Imagine a high-wire act where the acrobat suddenly leaps to a higher wire, then to another that's higher still. It's the best way I can think of to describe the giddy thrill of watching Parasite, a masterpiece of serial surprises." - Wall Street Journal

Winner of 4 Oscars (Best Picture, Best Director, Best International Feature, Best Original Screenplay). "An exhilarating and furious indictment of class struggle, Parasite might be the masterpiece South Korea's Bong Joon-ho has been working toward his entire career.

"Greta Gerwig's take on Louisa May Alcott's novel is intelligent and fleet, refreshing if not radical, and as organic in its feminist convictions as it is in its depiction of close-knit sororal love." - New Republic

In Little Women, Greta Gerwig couldn't have chosen a more beloved classic to adapt for her second feature as director, matched only by the strength of cast she's corralled.

Playing the four leads on the verge of womanhood are Saoirse Ronan, Florence Pugh, Emma Watson and Sharp Objects' Eliza Scanlen.

“Based on the life of Tommaso Buscetta, the Italian mafioso-turned-informant whose testimony in high-profile trials in the 1980s and 1990s helped shed light on the inner workings of La Cosa Nostra and bring several of its members to justice, “The Traitor” is as just as brutal as you might expect from such a true-crime tale.
