First Look Review - "Another End"

by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com
published 2025-09-26

Hitchcock's Vertigo has inspired dozens of imitations over the decades, but most of them focus on the thriller element of that canonised classic. With Another End, director Piero Messina strips away the thriller plot and focusses on the more intriguing aspects of Hitchcock's film, i.e. grief and obsession. He does so with the sort of sci-fi conceit that might have fared better as an hour long episode of an anthology like Black Mirror rather than a two-hour feature. The longer Another End runs the more time we have to pick it apart, but if you can watch this film through an uncynical lens it has its emotional rewards.

Art doc Cathy & Harry screens at the New Jersey Film Festival on Sunday, September 28!

by Morgan Kalmbach
published 2025-09-25

In their documentary film, Cathy & Harry, Marta Renzi and Daniel Wolff present the works and uniquely dynamic personalities of Catherine Murphy and Harry Roseman, two award-winning, notable artists, as well as a married couple. The film centers on Murphy and Roseman, while showcasing their artworks and stories as well as their relationship to one another and their views on life, each other, and the world around them. The film is unique in its less formal approach, taking its time to connect with the characters and enter their world, rather than them telling us who they are. This, alongside the inclusions of art and unique locations, cement Cathy & Harry as a poignant portrayal of two artists who seek to question, create, and connect.

Illuminating short documentary Where’s My Coffee Cup? screens at the at the Fall 2025 New Jersey Film Festival on Friday, September 26!

by Penelope de la Cruz
published 2025-09-23

Yehuda Sharim’s Where’s My Coffee Cup? is a short documentary that sheds light on the struggles of aging within Virginia prisons. The film focuses on John, a 64-year-old man who has been incarcerated for over thirty years. His story reveals how prison life becomes even harder as age and health problems set in. Sharim creates a deeply personal portrait representative of an often-ignored population through voiceover, performance, and imagery.



New Release Review - "The Long Walk"

by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com
published 2025-09-23

When Stephen King began writing his dystopian sci-fi novel The Long Walk in the late 1960s, it was likely intended as a Vietnam War allegory. When it was published in 1979 that conflict was still raw in Americans' minds. Few watching director Francis Lawrence's (with a script by Strange Darling's JT Mollner) take in 2025 will have Nam on their minds, but the story is now open to several more timely interpretations.



Soulful documentary Cathy & Harry screens at the Fall 2025 New Jersey Film Festival on Sunday, September 28

by Emma Hackbarth
published 2025-09-22

Artists Catherine Murphy and Harry Roseman are featured in Marta Renzi and Daniel Wolff's documentary Cathy & Harry in the midst of exhibitions, producing new work, and living together. They complement each other in their styles and concepts—Cathy in her representational painting and realism and Harry in his shapeshifting material pieces. Both are known for a meticulous, drawn-out work ethic and their love of each other. Shown in their home studios, galleries, public works and daily lives, we are given a glimpse of the process behind the product. The couple each tote prolific careers.



New Release Review - "The Man In My Basement"

by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com
published 2025-09-21

I haven't read Walter Mosley's 2004 novel The Man in My Basement, but based on director Nadia Latif's screen adaptation, I suspect it may be one of those notoriously unfilmable works. This movie attempts to contend with heady themes that are probably best explored in the written word, and Latif's film seems to have bitten off more than it can chew. There are two key subplots here. One might make for an engrossing two-hander stage production while the other could be an intriguing movie in its own right, but here they clash in a way that makes both of these storylines distract from one another.
