More from Manohla Dargis: “Bring Your Own Brigade” (a smart, cleareyed, solution-oriented documentary about the climate crisis that won’t leave you curled up in a ball sobbing); “Dune” (yeah, I know, but I dug this immersive big-screen spectacle, the sort Hollywood rarely produces today); “The Electrical Life of Louis Wain” (part of this year’s Benedict Cumberbatch wave and a must-see for animal lovers or, really, anyone with a beating heart); “Faya Dayi” (a gorgeous dream to slip into); “The First Wave” (a moving, intelligent, deeply human documentary on the pandemic); “In the Same Breath” (a tough, compassionate look at the pandemic via China); “Licorice Pizza” (especially the truck sequence — I could watch two hours of that amazingly directed, staged and choreographed camera-and-wheel work); “Prayers for the Stolen” (stirring and upsetting); “Preparations to Be Together for an Unknown Period of Time” (a gorgeous labyrinth); “Stillwater” (eh, it isn’t good but it brought me back into theaters); “The Truffle Hunters” (a touching lament for rapidly disappearing communities and traditions); “The Woman Who Ran” (elegant, wry, touching cinematic serialism).

The 45th president's disenchantment with the annual ceremony began when 2017 honoree Norman Lear made noises about boycotting the induction. So there hadn't been a president in the presidential box between then and now.

Bob Strauss @bscritic Wonder what an Irish #YorgosLanthimos film might be like? No? #NathaliBiacheri's #Wolf, which approaches species dysmorphia as a form of individualist defiance in a torture porn manner, shows us anyway.

Bob Strauss @bscritic #paolosorrentino's autobiographical #TheHandofGod piles up #Fellini-esque memories that are about equally freakish, erotic, tragic and soccer-obsessed.

Bob Strauss @bscritic #Flee doesn't entirely succeed, but it often finds winning ways of wedding animation to documentary. The narrative of #AminNawabi's escape from #Afghanistan and efforts to feel at home in Europe gets, sometimes, terribly real and moving. 2:12 PM · Dec 4, 2021·Twitter Web App

Bob Strauss @bscritic #TheScaryofSixtyFirst is a remarkably well-shot indie horror film built around the #JeffreyEpstein scandals. As much about the dangers of true crime obsession as it is the possessive spirits of abused girls.

The award for Best Supporting Actor went to the onetime Australian child actor Kodi Smit-McPhee for “The Power of the Dog.” Now 25, he is the younger brother of the actress-singer Sianoa Smit-McPhee.
