Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “Perfect Blue is one of those films that really demonstrates that Satoshi Kon was not only an excellent director of animation, but an excellent director period, and who has inspired other directors like Darren Aronofsky. I’m really glad to see it back in print.” Blaine says, “nothing I’ve seen yet jumps out at me, but both Aquaman and Stan and Ollie are on my ‘to watch’ list.”

  1. If Beale Street Could Talk walked away with a few Oscars and looks good. Also, I’m curious about Stan and Ollie.
