It reminds us of how Cameron Crowe became a rock critic while barely out of short pants, or how Spielberg wandered onto a Hollywood backlot and found himself directing Joan Crawford within months. But The Ice Tower is tonally a very different film than Almost Famous or The Fabelmans. This is a dark fable that reminds us there are predators waiting to exploit the dreams of the innocent.

Garikovich & Black: "Scars on the Body of Freedom"

by Tris McCall
published 2025-11-19
If you're an artist disgusted by the parlous state of civil society, you've got four moves on the table. All four come with perils. You can do as Jersey City creators have done and meet aggression and unpleasantness with a smile and a bouquet of flowers. You'll be modeling a nobler way of being, but you'll probably be called a bringer of a plate of cookies to a knife fight. You can give into his despair and indulge in acts of escapism, but you'll win no badges of courage that way. You might resolve to exaggerate and satirize the threat and court the risk that his audience will miss the point and think you've capitulated to your adversaries.
