As with George Lucas’ Star Wars before it, here was a throwback to many of the cinematic touchstones high and low that Baby Boomers grew up with: Saturday morning serials, prestige Oscar winners from yesteryear, and even boys’ pulp magazines were sifted through, borrowed from, and recontextualized into one of the most thrilling action-adventure movies anyone had ever seen. Somehow Lucas, who was a producer on the project, director Steven Spielberg, and the whole Indiana Jones team were…

Indiana Jones 5 still seems to be part of Disney’s plans for the future, although as with everything else in this increasingly lost year of 2020, the pandemic has almost certainly slowed development on a project that was already crawling along for years.

James Mangold (Logan) was anointed his successor, making the fifth film in the series the first to be directed by someone other than The Beard (who is still…

Ford v Ferrari and Logan director James Mangold is in talks to replace Steven Spielberg as the director of Indiana Jones 5, according to Variety. The outlet reports that the deal isn’t set in stone yet, but that it was Spielberg’s decision to step away from the director’s chair in order to give another director a chance to bring a new perspective to the sequel. Spielberg will instead remain on the project as a “hands-on” producer. This will be the first Indiana Jones movie not directed by Spielberg. Mangold is an exciting new addition to the franchise, having already cut his teeth on big blockbuster franchises like…

Monrovia, Indiana

Max SchindlerMovie reviewsindiana, monrovia

Monrovia, Indiana explores a small town in rural, mid-America and illustrates how values like community service, duty, spiritual life, generosity and authenticity are formed, experienced and lived along with conflicting stereotypes. The film gives a complex and nuanced view of daily life in Monrovia and provides some understanding of a way of life whose influence and force have not always been recognized or understood in the big cities on the east and west coasts of America and in other countries. [Venice]Rated: Not RatedRelease Date: Oct 26, 2018
