MOVIES I SAW THIS WEEK-<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
1) PELOSI IN THE HOUSE<\/strong>–\u00a02022. Synopsis by Rotten Tomatoes. “In her 14th documentary film for HBO, acclaimed documentarian Alexandra Pelosi offers a candid, behind-the-scenes chronicle of the life of her mother and Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, through her career milestones leading up to the inauguration of President Joseph Biden in January 2021. Filmed in a cin\u00e9ma v\u00e9rit\u00e9 style over the course of three decades, PELOSI IN THE HOUSE provides a unique, longitudinal window into the life of a longstanding Democratic politician and history in the making.”<\/p>\n

12\/18\/22-\u00a0Fair reviews from the critics and poor ones from audiences but I liked this documentary very much. TRDB.<\/strong><\/p>\n

2) THE FABELMANS<\/strong>– 2022.

<\/div>\n
1)) THE SUPER 8 YEARS<\/strong>–\u00a02022. Synopsis by Rotten Tomatoes. “The French writer and 2022 Nobel Prize awardee Annie Ernaux, whose novels and memoirs have gained her a devoted following (and whose autobiographical L’\u00c9v\u00e9nement was adapted just last year into the critically acclaimed film Happening), opens a treasure trove with this delicate journey into her family’s memory.”<\/p>\n

Nine-year-old Cait is sent away from her overcrowded, dysfunctional family to live with foster parents for the summer. Quietly struggling at school and at home, she has learned to hide in plain sight from those around her. She blossoms in their care, but in this house where there are meant to be no secrets, she discovers one painful truth.”<\/p>\n

12\/18\/\/22-\u00a0Excellent reviews from the critics and audiences as well. TRDB.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

4) THE VOLCANO: RESCUE FROM WHAKAARI<\/strong>–\u00a02022. Synopsis by Rotten Tomatoes. “A close examination of the Whakaari \/ White Island volcanic eruption of 2019 in which 22 lives were lost, the film viscerally recounts a day when ordinary people were called upon to do extraordinary things, placing this tragic event within the larger context of nature, resilience, and the power of our shared humanity.”<\/p>\n
