Offers just enough resolution to leave room for a sequel.

This is an Art Film, though, so I know there will be no sequel--thank goodness.

Florence Foster Jenkins



The producers had to spend an awful lot of money, training Meryl Streep to sing awfully.

They could have had me for a lot less money; I'm already at my peak.

Star Trek Beyond


Well, I thought, for obvious reasons, they would finally let go of their fetish with the TV series cast--but they didn't.

A photo of the aging cast in their movie years, really?
