Two icons are back in action this weekend as Roadside Attractions presents the comedy Moving On with Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin on close to 800 screens, hoping it will connect with female audiences.
Focus Features also opens Willem Dafoe-starring Inside from Vasilis Katsoupis on 350+ screens.
It’s been relatively quiet on the specialty front. “There’s not that much out there for this audience right now,” said Howard Cohen, co-president of Roadside Attractions. “I think this is the opportunity that we felt — it’s after the Oscars and before the Sundance movies and summer movies.”

That English-language cinema has no parallel for the Garrel family is equal testament to their legacy and our shallow, piddling culture. While Philippe Garrel’s decades-long filmmaking career––which began with political documentation and silent features, but now represents modern cinema’s best studies of romance and longing––just added to its corpus his excellent The Plough, starring progeny Louis Garrel, Esther Garrel, and Lena Garrel, Louis is about to see the U.S. debut of The Innocent, his fourth feature in writing-directing-starring capacities.
If it barely resembles his father’s films––still attuned to human behavior, but packaging observations inside madcap scenarios Garrel proudly calls “completely unbelievable”––that’s all the better: watching The Innocent suggests less an heir to Philippe Garrel than Dino Risi or Pierre Etaix.

La Fille qu’on appelle
Who knew that a tale about a ski instructor and favored skier narrative that teeters into power-struggle and examines sexual exploitation would be such a stellar debut. Unfortunately, Charlène Favier didn’t get to have an in-person premiere but nonetheless 2020’s Slalom (Cannes Label) played especially well internationally. The French filmmaker moved into her sophomore feature this past July in Marseille on a project based on Tanguy Viel’s novel of the same name.
