It's Raining Frogs Outside

For her first film as writer-director, Pulitzer prize-winning playwright Annie Baker gives us a lonely and imaginative 11-year-old, Lacey (Zoe Zigler) besotted with her single mom, Janet (Julianne Nicholson).

A cantor (Jason Schwartzman) in a crisis of faith finds his world turned upside down when his grade school music teacher (Carol Kane) re-enters his life as his new adult Bat Mitzvah student.

The first classic film noir, with Humphrey Bogart as the definitive cynical private eye, Sam Spade, based on the novel by former Pinkerton man, Dashiell Hammett.

A family riven apart by grief finds solace and redemption in an unexpected place...

Frederic Forrest plays Dashiell Hammett, the Maltese Falcon author who once worked for Pinkerton's Detective Agency. Agreeing to help an old friend, he gets sucked into a mystery as compelling as any he could have imagined...

This movie feels like a perfect short story. 17-year-old Sam (Lily Collias) gamely heads out on a camping weekend with her recently remarried dad (James LeGros) and his newly divorced buddy, Matt (Danny McCarthy). They bitch. She absorbs.
