‘The Executioner’s Song’ (1982): ‘Director’s Cut’ of chilly ‘true life’ novel still a terrifying tale
I made the mistake of going to the movies this week. A new movie. In an actual theater. That I had to pay for.

‘Allied’ (2016): Brad Pitt returns to WWII
Or…Brad, Why You So Blue-Screened, It’s Only WWII
