The Family Stone (2005): This modern Christmas classic celebrates the holidays by acknowledging that, sometimes, family can be kind of the worst. When successful Manhattan executive Meredith Morton (Sarah Jessica Parker) joins her boyfriend Everett Stone (Dermot Mulroney) for Christmas with his tightknit family, her uptight ways don’t exactly jibe with their bohemian values. With stand-out supporting turns from Diane Keaton, Luke Wilson and Rachel McAdams, "The Family Stone" has carved out its own unique place as a family dramedy that understands that the tough times only help you appreciate the good times more. Rated PG-13. 103 minutes. Dir: Thomas Bezucha. Also features Claire Danes,Craig T. Nelson, Elizabeth Reaser and Tyrone Giordano.
Donnie Darko (2001): It’ll take at least two viewings to understand everything that happens in this trippy cult classic starring Jake Gyllenhaal as a troubled suburban teen haunted by a giant bunny. That makes it perfect for falling down the rabbit hole again and again. Rated R. 113 minutes. Dir: Richard Kelly. Also features Jena Malone, Maggie Gyllenhaal,Patrick Swayze and Mary McDonnell.
The Freak Brothers (2021): Based on Gilbert Shelton’s cult classic 1960s comic, "The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers," this adult animated series follows three hippie stoners who smoke a magical strain of weed in 1969 and fall into a 50-year slumber, only to wake up in the 2020s. "The Freak Brothers" is a Tubi Original. Rated TV-MA. One season (first three episodes currently available). Featuring: Woody Harrelson, John Goodman, Tiffany Haddish, Pete Davidson, La La Anthony and Adam Devine.
The Gospel According to André (2018): "You can be aristocratic without having been born into an aristocratic family," legendary "Vogue" magazine editor André Leon Talley explains in this documentary about his influential life and career. So take an electric cinematic ride with this haute couture tastemaker. Rated PG-13. 93 minutes. Dir Kate Novack. Featuring: André Leon Talley, Anna Wintour, Whoopi Goldberg, Tom Ford.
Jupiter Ascending (2015): Like a lot of the Wachowskis’ post-"Matrix" output, "Jupiter Ascending" is the sort of gonzo swing that definitely isn’t for everyone. But once you embrace the unexpectedly earnest tone of this sci-fi fairy tale romance, it has plenty of rollicking action fun to offer. Rated PG-13. 127 minutes. Dir: The Wachowskis. Featuring: Mila Kunis, Channing Tatum, Sean Bean and Eddie Redmayne.
