Nobody wanted to open against Taylor Swift last fall and since nobody wanted to open against the sandworms, it’s a light week of reviews. Still five movies for Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy to talk about including an animated documentary about a missing pianist (They Shot the Piano Player) and the story of a burn victim seeking love and revenge (Silver Haze). Adam Sandler misses Carey Mulligan and talks to a giant spader (Spaceman). Former SNL writer Julio Torres makes his directorial debut as a toy designer who becomes the assistant to Tilda Swinton’s art-world pariah (Problemista). Finally, the sandworms have awakened and Denis Villeneuve finally completes his adaptation of Frank Herbert’s seminal sci-fi novel (Dune: Part Two).
