KIM'S VIDEO (2023) Theatrical Review

 


I'd long heard reverent tales of the legendary NYC indie video store Kim's Video, but it wasn't until the new documentary from @drafthousefilms and directors David Redmon and Ashley Sabin that I had a chance to take a peek inside (via archival footage) and hear the story of how that iconic shop came to be, and moreover the even more incredible story of what happened after it closed. More than just a documentary about a video store, the film shows the impact and power of film, community, historical preservation, and how a mountain of video tapes and DVDs can lead to international intrigue.

  Luc Besson returns to directing with an odd action-drama, DOGMAN, starring Caleb Landry Jones as a wheelchair-bound drag performer and master of an army of canines ready to growl and prowl on his command. Points for using actual trained dogs and not CGI foolery, proof that things can still be done the old fashioned way and (shockily!) be all the more impressive for it.
