What it has to say is provocative and might rub some viewers the wrong way. That, of course, is a sign that it’s doing something very right.

This Too Shall Pass
(2024)

This year, a new category will be added to the Oscars honoring the best achievement in casting. I think they should give it to whoever came up with the idea to cast Judy Greer as a villain in this movie.
