- Mommy
Jennifer Aniston has collected some of the best reviews of her career playing the scarred, emotionally brittle survivor of a terrible car accident in the indie drama Cake; it screens at River East 21, and our review is here. Also in this week’s issue, Ben Sachs spotlights the best work from this year’s Onion City Experimental Film and Video Festival, Drew Hunt takes a look at the program “Oscar Nominated Short Films 2015: Live Action“, and I recommend Mommy, the latest from French-Canadian wunderkind (or whatever wunderkind is in French) Xavier Dolan.
