Jake and Vince Friedkin, played by Jude Law and Jason Bateman, have a natural charisma and seem destined for lasting fame. However, the film quickly brings them crashing back to reality, forcing them to confront their current struggles with money, isolation, and unhappiness. In just a short scene, Law and Bateman effectively show both what these brothers once had and everything they’ve lost.

On September 15th, Jennifer Garner posted a series of photos on Instagram showcasing her name or nicknames like “cool mom.” The first picture was a behind-the-scenes shot of her in her Elektra costume. Some fans thought this meant she was reprising the role in *Avengers: Doomsday*, but ComicBookMovie clarified that the director’s chair visible in the photo was labeled “Eleven,” likely Elektra’s secret code name in the *Deadpool & Wolverine* script to keep her appearance a surprise.
Industry veteran and outspoken critic Mark Kern (Grummz) flagged the move.
The movie isn’t about David and Sarah falling in love, but rather about them running out of reasons *not* to be together. The chemistry between Colin Farrell and Margot Robbie – he with a natural charm, she radiating even with unusual costumes – suggests they *should* be a couple. This raises an interesting question: even if someone claims to be happy alone, do they owe it to themselves to explore a good relationship? However, the film, *A Big Bold Beautiful Journey*, doesn’t really explore that idea. It assumes David and Sarah are just avoiding deeper problems and turns into a predictable, somewhat bland, journey of self-discovery where they overcome their personal issues to find happiness as a couple. Instead of therapy, they’re guided by a mystical GPS (voiced by Jodie Turner-Smith) that sends them on a road trip after a wedding, both driving cars rented from a quirky agency run by Kevin Kline and Phoebe Waller-Bridge. This GPS leads them to mysterious doors hidden in the countryside, and each door transports them to important moments from their past.
Good news for fans: Richard Kind is back as Vince this episode, and his eye patch is gone, suggesting he’s recovered from his eye infection. Meanwhile, Oliver is trying to show he’s not self-centered by taking the lead on the investigation. He’s assembled the murder board and brought in Vince for help. Since both Vince and Lester are birdwatchers, Vince might be able to connect the birds listed in Lester’s ledger to the billionaires who were at the casino the night of the crime.
Macon Blair’s new film, The Toxic Avenger, features a star-studded cast including Peter Dinklage, Kevin Bacon, Elijah Wood, Jacob Tremblay, and Taylour Paige. It’s a fresh take on the classic franchise created by Lloyd Kaufman and Troma Entertainment, and hit US theaters last month.
Robert Redford was born in Santa Monica, California, on August 18, 1936. He attended the University of Colorado and later studied acting at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. He started his acting career on Broadway in 1959 with a small role in the play “Tall Story.” In the early 1960s, he began appearing on television shows like “The Twilight Zone,” “Route 66,” “The Untouchables,” “Perry Mason,” and “Alfred Hitchcock Presents.”
Robert Redford’s passing closes the chapter on an incredible six-decade career. He was a memorable actor, a talented director who earned critical acclaim, and a driving force behind the Sundance Film Festival, leaving a lasting impact on the world of film.
It’s common to revisit an artist’s work when they pass away, and with Robert Redford’s recent passing, many will want to do just that. This list offers five of my favorite, and perhaps less obvious, Redford performances and films he directed. I’ve left out his most famous works – *Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid*, *All the President’s Men*, and *Ordinary People* – assuming most fans have already seen those. These selections are a little deeper cuts, but are equally, if not more, rewarding.
