Ethan Hawke's WILDCAT: Finding Flannery
Directed and co-written by four-time Academy Award® nominee Ethan Hawke, WILDCAT invites the audience to weave in and out of celebrated Southern Gothic writer Flannery O’Connor's mind as she ponders the great questions of her writing: Can scandalous art still serve God?

The Untold Story Of 'Le Samouraï'
In a career-defining performance, Alain Delon plays Jef Costello, a contract killer with samurai instincts.

An elegantly stylized masterpiece of cool by maverick director Jean-Pierre Melville, Le samouraï is a razor-sharp cocktail of 1940s American gangster cinema and 1960s French pop culture—with a liberal dose of Japanese…

Playing God Across Eras: The Legacy of Frankenstein in Film

It gave life to Boris Karloff's monster in 1931's "Frankenstein," breathed electric life into Elsa Lanchester's Bride in 1935's "Bride of Frankenstein," and sparked laughter in Mel Brooks' 1974 parody, "Young Frankenstein." These films are not just entertainment; they're sparks of inspiration and moral reflection, reminding us of the consequences…
