HAWKISH: HOWARD HAWKS’ SCREWBALL COMEDIES ARE MARKED BY ROMANTIC ANARCHY

Written by JAKE MULLIGAN Posted July 20, 2015 Filed Under: A+E, Film

ICYMI: REWIND TO THE BEST OF 2014 CINEMA AT THE BRATTLE

Written by SUSANNA JACKSON Posted January 8, 2015 Filed Under: A+E, Film

A film released in January is as likely to receive critical acclaim, box office success, or your own stamp of approval as a guy with a knife is to win a gunfight. Luckily, the Brattle is serving up the antidote to this month’s smorgasbord of sure-fire shit with a selection of 2014’s best.
