Jacob's Ladder (1990) ****

Image
Jacob's Ladder   is a beautiful and creepy film that ought to be held in higher regard. A whole lot of talent involved here. I said it before and I'll say it again (because it still applies as of this post): this movie deserves better treatment (visual/supplemental) on Blu-ray!

What Happened, Miss Simone? (2015) ****

Image
What a fascinating, brilliant, incredibly talented, complex, genius soul. Every time I hear her music I get chills (and I've only heard a very small portion of her discography). She moves me. What Happened, Miss Simone?  (2015) obviously just barely touches the surface of her life, but it's excellent regardless.
