Welcome to another Double Reviews edition. While I usually find a common thread when I combine reviews, this time I deliberately chose movies that are completely different from each other. Variety is the spice of life, after all. So here goes! Rebuilding   Josh O’Connor has become one of my favorite actors since his breakout …
