Ben Mankiewicz sat down with James Caan for today's edition of "CBS Sunday Morning." It's nice to know that Caan loves Michael Mann's "Thief" (1981) as much as I do!

Bob Strauss @bscritic #Scales is a stunningly shot, black & white fable about a fishing village that sacrifices girl babies to the sea, then hunts and eats the resulting mermaids. Much implied (and more directly addressed) about Saudi sexism in #ShahadAmeen's mysterious, mesmerizing first feature. 4:26 PM · Jul 9, 2021·Twitter Web App

Bob Strauss @bscritic #BlackWidow is #Marvel's #JamesBond movie, which makes sense since the character was introduced in 1964, in part, to capitalize on the Cold War spy film craze that 007 started. It's also an often hilarious satire of fake family values. Fun stuff, if not topnotch Marvel. 4:16 PM · Jul 9, 2021·Twitter Web App

Bob Strauss @bscritic #TomorrowWar's plot is borrowed from post-#JudgmentDay #Terminators and its alien creatures from #aquietplace . Oh, and it's about family. Enjoyed watching Miami get wrecked, though. 4:45 PM · Jul 3, 2021·Twitter Web App
