Synopsis
Nestled in an isolated mountain region deep within the Balkans, Hatidze Muratova lives with her ailing mother in a village without roads, electricity or running water. She’s the last in a long line of wild beekeepers, eking out a living farming honey in small batches to be sold in the closest city—a mere four hours’ walk away. Hatidze’s peaceful existence is thrown into upheaval by the arrival of an itinerant family, with their roaring engines, seven rambunctious children and herd of cattle. Hatidze optimistically meets the promise of change with an open heart, it doesn’t take long however,before a conflict evolves that exposes the fundamental tension between nature and humanity, harmony and discord, exploitation and sustainability.

2020 Awards Season: Oscars Winners and Reactions
February 10th, 2020
-(2019)-1-News.jpg)
The Oscars were handed out last night and unlike most years, I wasn’t able to live-blog the awards. This is a real shame, because it was one of the best Oscar nights I can remember and there were very few awards that made me legitimately angry, unlike many years in the past. There was even a surprise winner for the full night, as Parasite earned the most wins with four Oscars. It is incredibly rare for a foreign-language film to pull off that feat.

2020 Awards Season: Oscar Highlight: Best Feature-Length Documentary
February 3rd, 2020
-1-News.jpg)
Our annual Oscar Prediction contest is underway so now is the best time to look at the nominees and try and figure out who the favorites are and which films should just feel honored to be nominated. Due to a compressed Oscar schedule, and the monthly preview, I have to get all ten Oscar highlight stories done this week. Wish me luck! Today we look at Best Feature-Length Documentary, which is a category that doesn’t have a real favorite, nor does it have a real long shot. It’s a five-way race.

2020 Awards Season: Oscar Nominations
January 13th, 2020
-1-News.jpg)
The Oscar nominations were announced on Monday, and the results were... well, there were some puzzling results. Joker led the way with eleven nominations. ... A film with 69% positive reviews earned the most nominations. It’s not the worst-reviewed movie to earn a Best Picture Nomination—after all, Bohemian Rhapsody was nominated just last year. However, this film is arguably the worst-reviewed movie to ever earn the most nominations in a single year.

Weekend Estimates: Hollywood Can’t Tame Lion King
July 28th, 2019
As expected, The Lion King is easily topping the box office chart this weekend. Unfortunately, it is doing so despite falling much faster than expected, down 61% to an estimated $75.52 million during its third weekend of release for a running tally of $350.78 million. Fortunately, it could still be on pace to reach $500 million domestically, while it earned $142.8 million internationally for totals of $611.9 million internationally and $962.7 million worldwide. It will reach $1 billion shortly, making it yet another profitable disappointment. We’ve had too many of those this year, but I guess it is better than having these films lose money.

Limited and VOD Releases: Staying Grounded
July 26th, 2019
-(2019)-1-News.jpg)
It is an interesting week on the limited release front as there are four films that are earning 100% positive reviews, including three documentaries. I think this level of competition might be too much for any of them to thrive. Additionally, the only non-documentary to earn perfect reviews so far is The Ground Beneath My Feet, a foreign-language film.
