Film

I’ve been an Edie Falco fan since I first saw her in gay filmmaker Eric Mendelsohn’s 1999 feature “Judy Berlin,” which Falco followed with several years on “The Sopranos,” and the career high point (pun intended), “Nurse Jackie.”

You might not think that “My Old Ass” (Amazon Studios/MGM), a movie about a queer, 18-year-old girl’s shroom-fueled journey of self-discovery, would be one of the best movies of 2024, but you’d be wrong. The second full-length feature film from Canadian writer/director/actor Megan Park features unforgettable performances that are as original as the premise itself.

With each passing year, the list of LGBTQ documentaries continues to grow and includes classics such as “Paris Is Burning,” “A Secret Love,” “The Celluloid Closet,” “Brother Outsider,” “We Were Here,” and “The Times of Harvey Milk.” Marc Saltarelli’s “Studio One Forever” (Gravitas Ventures), which was popular at multiple film festivals, is among the latest arrivals.

According to wackadoodle preacher, and ex-gay, Pastor Royer (David Koechner), in co-directors Colby Holt & Sam Probst’s “Ganymede” (VMI Worldwide), a Ganymede is an unrepentant homosexual.

Is there anything Elizabeth Banks can’t do? She’s a game show host (“Press Your Luck”). She’s a director (“Cocaine Bear” and “Pitch Perfect 2”). She’s a comedic actor (“30 Rock” and “Modern Family”) who is also comfortable doing dramatic work (“Love and Mercy” and “Brightburn”).

Under strict orders from the studio not to reveal any spoilers (we don’t want to piss off Jeff Bezos or the ghost of Louis B. Mayer now, do we?), makes writing a review of “Blink Twice” (Amazon/MGM), Zoë Kravitz’s directorial debut a bit of a challenge, but I’ll give it my all.
