The long days of summer are setting in, so here are two films that you can enjoy in the air conditioning—one at home and one in the theater.

We continue to journey around the world with two more Oscar-nominated films this month: the first was nominated for Best International Feature and the second for Best Documentary Feature.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who came to our powerful screening of Seven Winters in Tehran on April 5 at The Cube. Stay tuned for more events. This month, we finish off the Oscar films, I add an Oscar-nominated doc, and for icing, I give you a great new TV series.

This is a busy month for local film: The ACT Human Rights Festival runs in Ft. Collins from 4/3–4/7, the Woman+Film Festival screens at the Sie from 4/10–4/14, and we have a wonderful film screening at The Cube on 4/5 @ 6:30pm. More below, and I also owe you two Oscar reviews; I give you one this month and one next. To the films. 

This is Oscar month, so we get straight to the films. I reviewed The Holdovers in the February column, Past Lives in December, and I will post reviews of The Zone of Interest and Anatomy of a Fall next month. The latter two will fight it out for the Best International Feature this year, and rightly so. This was a wonderful year for the movies, and I hope you get a chance to see all of them. And the nominees are…

This is going to be a great month for film, and for our neighborhood in particular. This month I give you reviews of two films that likely will be nominated for Oscars; one of those should produce (at least) one winner.

Award season is coming and most films have now been released. The March column will preview all of the films nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars, so this month I give brief reviews of several films that may be nominated for other awards.

The marquee movies are coming out, the Denver Film Festival has given us a bevy of gems, and many of us have time off during the holidays to watch these great films in theaters and/or streaming at home.

It is once again time for the Denver Film Festival. Last year was one of the best-attended festivals in its history, and the Denver Film Society now looks to repeat that performance.

The coming months usually bring us the best movies of the year as well as the Denver Film Festival in November.

One way to understand and process the world, for me, is through film. Therefore, in the spirit of education and action, I hope you join us at Earth Reel Resilience, a Climate Change Film Series this fall plus a powerful gem from Ireland that I highly recommend and a fascinating historical nonfiction book from venerable author Erik Larson.

The Denver film Society: “CinemaQ is Denver’s only LBGTQ+ Film Festival celebrating the vibrant and diverse stories in the community through a captivating selection of curated movies, panels and discussions, and iconic events.
