“Movie: Venus and Serena”
“Movie: Frankie & Alice”
With that title, anyone who knows
tennis won’t be surprised to find this is
a documentary about the sport’s iconic
Williams sisters. The film concentrates
on their performances in 2011, when
a variety of crises threatened their
standings in the game ... but their
off-court lives get as much attention,
through candid footage that also details
the huge role their father played in
their progress.
Halle Berry took a sharp turn away
from her superhero persona in the
“X-Men” movies to play a decidedly
mortal character in Frankie, a
stripper struggling with multiple
personalities who puts herself in the
care of an eccentric psychotherapist
(Stellan Skarsgard, “Chernobyl”).
Phylicia Rashad, Chandra Wilson and
Matt Frewer also star in this 2010
biographical drama.
“Movie: Forgetting Sarah
Marshall”
“The Underground Railroad”
The forgetting isn’t so easy for a
composer (Jason Segel) after his
television star girlfriend (Kristen Bell)
leaves him in this raunchy comedy
from producer Judd Apatow. Trying to
shake his grief, the jilted guy goes to a
Hawaiian resort where the other guests
turn out to include his ex-love and her
new rock-star beau (Russell Brand).
Mila Kunis, Paul Rudd and Jonah Hill
also appear.
UPGRADE
Oscar-winning screenwriter Barry
Jenkins (“Moonlight”) is the creative
force behind this limited series that
chronicles the flight to freedom of Cora
Randall (newcomer Thuso Mbedu),
who discovers an actual railroad with
tracks, engineers and conductors
beneath the soil of the Georgia
plantation where she works and lives.
Chase W. Dillon, Joel Edgerton and
Aaron Pierre also star. (ORIGINAL)
