I listened to an episode of the SmartLess podcast on a recent road trip, which is hosted by Will Arnett, Jason Bateman, and Sean Hayes, featuring Bradley Cooper. But it escaped me that Cooper was directing a film starring Arnett, where Hayes has a small supporting role. The story centers on a middle-aged man, Alex …

FlixChatter Review: MAESTRO (2023) – Cooper really ups his game as a filmmaker, while Mulligan is the film’s acting MVP
With a title like Maestro, one might naturally expect a music biopic of one of the world’s most influential conductors of the 20th century. Given it’s one of my most anticipated films of the year, I knew going in that writer/director Bradley Cooper intended to chronicle the complex relationship between Leonard Bernstein and his wife, …
The first trailer of Bradley Cooper’s MAESTRO centers on Leonard Bernstein’s decades-spanning love story
I have been highly anticipating this since news circulated that Bradley Cooper was going to direct Leonard Bernstein's biopic AND portray him in the film.

FlixChatter Review: Nightmare Alley (2021)
With a name like Nightmare Alley and directed by Guillermo del Toro, those unfamiliar with the source material might assume it's a horror movie. That's what I thought before the trailer rolled around last September, but there is actually no ghost, ghoulish creatures or supernatural elements in this film. That does not mean there is no …
This Just In! Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Nightmare Alley’ Trailer
It's been four years since Guillermo del Toro won a Best Picture Oscar for The Shape of Water, and this is the first feature film he's worked on since. Of course it's not the only film that had to shut down because of the pandemic. Per this Indiewire article, they stopped the shoot when shooting …
