Criterion sale watch: The Grifters- a razor sharp neonoir with hustlers, double crosses, and twisted family ties. Anjelica Huston, John Cusack, and Annette Bening are enthralling . Slick, dark, and impossible to look away.

My First Mister (2001) is a heartfelt dramedy about a goth teen (Leelee Sobieski) who forms an unexpected bond with a lonely older man (Albert Brooks). Funny, touching, and full of emotional surprises.

Switching Channels (1988) is a fast-talking, newsroom-set rom-com with Kathleen Turner, Burt Reynolds, and Christopher Reeve in a love triangle. It’s no His Girl Friday, but the cast is fun, the energy is high, and Turner steals the show!

White Line Fever (1975) is a badass ’70s trucker revenge flick. Jan-Michael Vincent fights corrupt bosses with his rig, Blue Mule, and a whole lot of attitude. Gritty, cool, and perfect for a late-night watch!

Crossing Delancey is a sweet, funny, and charming rom-com about tradition, love, and unexpected connections. Amy Irving is caught between NYC’s literary scene and a humble pickle salesman (Peter Riegert, effortlessly lovable). Warm, witty, and underrated!

I guess they realized it’s clearly a violation of the first amendment, since it came from the mayors office. Happy my Theater is playing it this weekend and a local university is playing it again soon.

The Apartment (β€˜60) is a perfect mix of comedy, romance, and heartbreak. Jack Lemmon is lovable, Shirley MacLaine is irresistible, and Billy Wilder’s script is pure gold. Funny, bittersweet, and way ahead of its time!

Network (β€˜76) is a razor-sharp, still-relevant satire on media, greed, and madness. Peter Finch rants, Faye Dunaway schemes, and TV news sells its soul. Dark, brilliant, and way too prophetic.

Walking and Talking (1996) is a witty, heartfelt indie about friendship, love, and awkward relationships. Catherine Keener and Anne Heche have great chemistry, Liev Schreiber is hilariously awkward, and Todd Field plays the unsure fiancΓ©. Pure ’90s indie charm! #filmsky

Avanti! (1972) is a charming, slow-burn Wilder comedy with Jack Lemmon at his bestβ€”but the fat jokes? Yikes. She isn’t even fat! Still, the romance, scenery, and zippy dialogue make up for it. Just… less body shaming, please. #filmsky

The Mechanic (β€˜72) is peak Charles Bronsonβ€”cold, calculated, and deadly. He plays a hitman who’s the best at what he does. He takes on an apprentice and things get complicated. Cool action, brutal kills, and a killer ending. #Filmsky #bronson

10 to Midnight (1983) is Charles Bronson at his grittiestβ€”half cop thriller, half slasher flick. A cold-blooded killer vs. Bronson’s no-nonsense cop, with plenty of sleaze, action, and tough-guy one-liners. It’s wild, it’s brutal, and it doesn’t hold back. Stream it now on Tubi!

Special bonus film; Broadcast News (1987): Brooks didn’t write this one, but his performance is legendary. As the neurotic yet lovable Aaron, he delivers one of the greatest rants in film history. A sharp, hilarious, and painfully relatable look at journalism and unrequited love. #BroadcastNews

4/ β€œDefending Your Life” (1991) – A Philosophical Comedy Classic
Brooks plays a man navigating the afterlife’s legal system to determine if he deserves heaven. Whip-smart and oddly touching, this one stays with you.

3/ β€œLost in America” (1985) – The American Dream, Derailed
A yuppie couple (Brooks & Julie Hagerty) drop everything to β€œfind themselves” on the roadβ€”only to crash and burn. A scathing, hilarious critique of privilege and entitlement.

2/ β€œModern Romance” (1981) – A Neurotic Love Story
This film redefines the rom-com by diving into the obsessive, overthinking mind of a man trying (and failing) to win back his ex. Awkward, painful, and incredibly funny.

1/ β€œReal Life” (1979) – The Original Reality TV Satire
Before β€œThe Truman Show,” Brooks skewered the ethics of reality entertainment. Playing a fictional version of himself, he follows a β€œregular” family for a yearβ€”with disastrous, hilarious results. Satirical gold.
