Guillermo del Toro’s new version shows Bradley Cooper and Cate Blanchett in pulsating radiance. “Nightmare Alley,” the second film version of William Lindsay Gresham’s book, is the also the first collaboration for […]
Nightmare Alley
House of Gucci
This miscast Gucci biopic doesn’t have much fashion sense. Ridley Scott’s “House of Gucci” tells the story of how Patrizia Reggiani left her humble beginnings to live the high life of the […]
Red Notice

The Guilty
The performances shine over these recycled phone calls. You have to know your past in order to know your future: a lesson that everyone should acknowledge. It’s not just apply to history, […]
