The weeks openings redux: Bewitched and bothered

In addition to the films I listed below, two more will open Friday in area theaters. They are:

“The Hero” : Sam Elliott plays an aging movie star who is reconciling his past with what’s left of his present. In other words, a variation on his own life.

“The Beguiled” : Sofia Coppola resurrects Don Siegel’s 1971 film , casting Colin Ferrell (in the role originated by Clint Eastwood) as a wounded Civil War soldier who chances upon a girls’ boarding school overseen by Nicole Kidman. Cue the discordant music.

As usual, go and see a movie. And enjoy.
