The Sealed Soil (1977): Marva Nabili’s Quiet Masterpiece of Feminist Resistance Returns to the Screen
The Sealed Soil is a miracle in the form of a movie. Written and directed by Marva Nabili, it is the earliest surviving film by an Iranian woman made in Iran. That the film was even made in 1977 was a monumental achievement. That it survives today, especially considering that Nabili had to flee her home country before the Iranian Revolution, is nothing short of miraculous.

'I Know Catherine, The Log Lady' Review – A Loving Tribute to Catherine Coulson’s Remarkable Life and Career
I had no intention of crying today. But the new documentary I Know Catherine, The Log Lady had other plans for me. This loving, beautiful, and extraordinary film bursts with love, humor, and grief in equal measure. You may not be familiar with actress Catherine Coulson, but she made a lasting impact on many lives—those closest to her, and those who only knew her as the wacky yet wise TV character who carried a log wherever she went.

Review: 'Another Simple Favor' Is a Sharp, Stylish Sequel Worth the Wait
Another Simple Favor is a stylish and satisfying sequel that exceeds expectations—and feels right at home alongside its 2018 predecessor. The original A Simple Favor was a breath of fresh air: a female-led comedy thriller for adult audiences released at a time when most mainstream content was targeted at teens. It was classy, crisp, and witty—part Hitchcock, a dash of Howard Hawks, and a dollop of modern pop. Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick’s spiky chemistry felt like something out of a screwball 1940s classic, even if they weren’t exactly romantic foils.
