Left-Handed Girl and After the Hunt are among the standout TV offerings this week. First up is Left-Handed Girl, which proves to be a captivating drama about family life set in Taiwan. Janel Tsai stars as Shu-Fen, a devoted single mother whose life is turned upside down when her left-handed son I-Jing and adult daughter I-Ann arrive at their doorstep. Sean Baker's poignant film navigates complex relationships with sensitivity and nuance.
In contrast, After the Hunt takes a darker turn. Julia Roberts stars in Luca Guadagnino's tense drama about two women caught up in the aftermath of a campus rape accusation. The film raises uncomfortable questions about privilege, feminism, and restorative justice, and Roberts delivers a nuanced performance as Alma, a philosophy professor under scrutiny.
Next up is One Shot With Ed Sheeran, an unusual documentary that puts cameras on the singer as he travels through New York City, performing in various settings. It's an amusing look at Sheeran's affability and camaraderie with fans.
Nights of Cabiria is a classic from Federico Fellini, starring Giulietta Masina as a young woman who navigates Rome's streets and nightclubs to find success and connection. This 1957 film showcases the elegance and wit of its star, while also exploring themes of loneliness and human connection.
C'mon C'mon offers a heartwarming drama from Mike Mills, where Joaquin Phoenix stars as radio producer Johnny, who embarks on an emotional journey with his nephew Jesse as they navigate family relationships. The film features terrific performances from Phoenix and Woody Norman.
Last but not least, there's Inglourious Basterds, Quentin Tarantino's 2009 war drama that tells a fictional tale of revenge against Nazis in Nazi-occupied France. This action-packed film stars Brad Pitt as the leader of an elite unit of Jewish-American soldiers on a mission to kill key German officials.
