Movie newstrailers and the crowded release calendar
Greta Gerwig trailer, set to Stairway to Heaven (a first-ever Zeppelin license), moves the story 50 years on to post-war England. Both balk at the CGI worlds; agree it's a kids' movie. Hits theaters Feb 12, Super Bowl weekend.
'You Can See Everything'Nathan Fielder & Lance Oppenheim · spoiler-heavy
A24 documentary following Elizabeth Holmes and Billy Evans in the 34 days before prison, then two years into the recreations. Both call it the movie of the year; a verité first half flips into a metanarrative where Amanda Seyfried re-plays Holmes. Fielder as detective, not comic. Likely Best Picture, not doc-branch, contender.
In conversation
Three years of following Bamford; shot cheap and self-financed to start. Became a relatable portrait of OCD, intrusive thoughts and mental-health survival.
Macdonald doc built entirely from archival, no talking heads, because no one could crack who Norm was. Ends on a Largo set turned tearful, before anyone knew he was sick.
Apatow's next narrative feature, co-written with and starring Glenn Powell as a country star in free fall. Kristen Milioti and Madeleine Klein co-star.
