Seekers of Infinite Love treats family as a room with no exits, then puts that room on wheels. Victoria Strouse’s directorial debut is a family comedy-drama shaped by panic, resentment, love, and the grim comedy of forced proximity. The Bachman siblings learn that Scarlett has joined a Kentucky cult led by the magnetic Hal, and their rescue plan soon gathers its own absurd ritual logic. Kayla, a novelist with anxiety and claustrophobia, cannot handle flying. Zach, the lawyer brother, wants procedure where none exists. Wes brings charm, damage, and the faint sense that any plan involving him may require medical...

In Sender, the doorstep becomes a confession booth, a wound, and a trap. Russell Goldman expands his short film Return to Sender into a feature debut that treats online shopping with the moral gravity of a haunting. The monster is not hiding in the basement. It comes with tracking updates, bright branding, and a customer-service voice trained to sound harmless. Britt Lower plays Julia, a newly sober woman who has lost her job and moved into a rental home that feels less like shelter than temporary containment. Her attempt at renewal is interrupted by unsolicited packages from Smirk, an Amazon-like...

Crushed In Time takes Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson, drops them into a point-and-click adventure, then gleefully breaks the machinery around them. Draw Me A Pixel frames the game as a launch-day disaster at a glossy developer office, where a fictional Holmes game is being review bombed after an NPC mysteriously disappears. The player is pulled through a monitor and into the malfunctioning project, becoming the unseen force trying to push this collapsing digital mystery back into shape. The hook starts small. Watson receives a letter from Emma, except the letter refuses to behave like paper should. It sticks...

Playing POTUS studies a peculiar American ritual: the conversion of presidents into punchlines, then punchlines into public memory. Josh Greenbaum’s 92-minute documentary, based on Peter Funt’s nonfiction book, tracks comic portrayals of U.S. presidents and presidential hopefuls from Vaughn Meader’s John F. Kennedy routine to the age of Trump sketches, viral clips, and political outrage cycles. The film is funny, fast, and stacked with people who know how to turn a mannerism into a national shorthand. Dana Carvey, Will Ferrell, Darrell Hammond, Kate McKinnon, Alec Baldwin, Chevy Chase, Keegan-Michael Key, and others treat impersonation as a craft, a burden, and...

Happy Hours is a romantic dramedy built on a simple question: what happens when the person you once loved returns after life has had several decades to complicate the fantasy? Katie Holmes writes, directs, and stars as Liz, a newly divorced New York photographer trying to rebuild her sense of self after emotional upheaval. Joshua Jackson plays Andrew McCloud, a successful travel writer and Liz’s first great love, whose sudden reentry into her life turns a professional assignment into a reckoning with memory. The film’s Alan Watts quotation about the past surviving through memory gives the story its clearest thematic...

Bill Bailey’s Vietnam sends comedian, musician, and Strictly Come Dancing winner Bill Bailey across a country still shaped by memory, renewal, and restless change. The six-part travel documentary moves through Hội An, Ho Chi Minh City, Dalat, Hanoi, Sapa, and Ha Long Bay, building a portrait of Vietnam roughly 50 years after the end of the war. It is a country shown in motion: cities thick with traffic and enterprise, rural communities protecting inherited customs, coastlines tied to labor and ritual, temples carrying centuries of spiritual history. Bailey’s presence gives the series its easy charm. He is calm, observant, mildly...
