“I always say that it is not I who is provocative or scandalous, rather that the world is old and moldy. I refuse to allow myself to have censors dictate what I can and cannot show or decide for me what I, as an artist, should be presenting or representing. As both a woman and a director, I should be allowed to speak out and decide what images I want show, and how I am going to make my film. I forbid that censors dictate what my works are going to be like, or where I can place the camera or what I can show.”

“’I love product placement in movies,’ says CEO Stacy Spikes, wearing a Steve Jobs/Elizabeth Holmes-style turtleneck. ‘I’m the person that has a notepad and I’m writing down, is that Hugo Boss?

Your phone camera will track your eyeballs to make sure you’re actually watching. ‘What it does is it basically creates a transaction between you and the brand.'”

“Want 87 minutes of something bright and beautiful with a cool kind of hotness? Try Kimi, a minimalist thriller in which Steven Soderbergh’s camera and an electric-blue-haired Zoë Kravitz move in sync like two rare birds in flight… A year or so from now, I’ll watch Kimi again and remember not just the panic of the pandemic, but the pleasure of movies that dazzle the mind’s eye and ear, particularly this one.”

Ann Hornaday At The Washington Post: “West Side Story, Steven Spielberg’s remake of the beloved 1961 classic, offers a poignant case study in the shifting standards: Although it’s been well-received by filmgoers who ventured out to see it, its release coincided with the omicron variant, which has kept its core audience of over-55 adults out of theaters . With seven nominations to its credit, including for best supporting actress, best director and best picture, the strategic question for West Side Story is whether its distributor, 20th Century Studios, will keep the film exclusively in theaters in the hopes of a post-nom bump, or hurry it to streaming to capitalize on heightened awareness there.”
