THE ROSES
Directed by Jay Roach Starring Olivia Colman, Allison Janney, Benedict Cumberbatch, Andy Samberg, Kate McKinnon, Ncuti Gatwa, Zoe Chao, Jamie Demetriou, Zoë Chao, Belinda Bromilow, Sunita Mani Life seems easy for picture-perfect couple Ivy (Olivia Colman) and Theo (Benedict Cumberbatch): successful careers, a loving marriage, great kids.

The Roses is a reimagining of the 1989 classic film The War of the Roses, based on the novel by Warren Adler. .

ELEANOR THE GREAT
Eleanor the Great features a bravura performance from June Squibb in the title role of the spirited 94-year-old who tells a tale that takes on a dangerous life of its own. Eleanor Morgenstein has always stayed engaged and connected to the people around her. So, after a devastating loss, she relocates from Florida to New York City to live with her daughter and grandson, hoping to reconnect with her family. Instead, she feels even more adrift and invisible. One day she unknowingly wanders into a support group where she doesn’t quite belong, only to reveal a story that unwittingly brings her a level of attention she did not intend.
