For this Sunday Kino Night, we’re starting with Leviathan (2014), one of the best-reviewed post-Soviet Russian movies. A corrupt mayor in a small town orders a man’s home to be demolished. The man, who would prefer not to move, since he has a job and family etc., decides to hire a lawyer and fight his case, because surely, the legal system will bring him justice. Things go downhill from there. Where’s Mao when you need him? This is one of the best-regarded films to date of auteur director Andrey Zvyagintsev, who is probably best-known otherwise for The Return (2003) (which we haven’t watched yet.) A lot of reviews compare this to Lars von Trier’s work. It’ll be a ride.

After that is Blindspotting (2018), a black comedy/buddy film about a black man in Oakland trying to get through his last three days of probation, which would be easy, except that he becomes caught up with his troublemaking white best friend. Then, they witness a police shooting, and everything goes to hell. Can dudes continue to rock, or are we gonna be saying "God Damn America" once again? Let’s find out. This is the best-regarded work to date of director Carlos Lopez Estrada, whose credits also include, uhh, Raya and the Last Dragon (2021); it is also one of Letterboxd’s highest-rated films of the 2010s.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Hextube, right here:

Be there, comrades!
