WHAT TO GO SEE: Foxtrot

WHO'S IN IT Israeli actor Lior Ashkenazi and French-lsraeli actress Sarah Adler fiercely playing a grieving married couple. 

WILL REMIND YOU OF American war dramas with a deeper, different pathos. 

WHY NOW Samuel Maoz's searching, trenchant film about the futilities and tragedies of Israeli occupation was a festival smash throughout 2017. 


WHEN YOU CAN SEE IT In theaters March 2.

WHAT TO TUNE IN TO: Heathers

WHO'S IN IT Up-and-comer Brendan Scannell, a fabulously appointed Selma Blair, and Shannen-freaking-Doherty. 

WILL REMIND YOU OF The original Heathers film from 30 years ago. (Yes, 30.) 

WHY NOW A biting, darkly fun update on the cult hit movie, Heathers has a refreshingly queer sexuality and sensibility. 

WHEN YOU CAN SEE IT Premieres March 7 on the Paramount Network.

WHAT TO STREAM: Everything Sucks!

WHO'S IN IT A sprightly band of kid actors, led by the adorable Jahi Di'Allo Winston. 

WILL REMIND YOU OF Your teen years, if you were a teen in 1996. 

WHY NOW Initially seeming to be another unnecessary piece of 90s nostalgia, Everything Sucks! reveals itself to be a disarmingly winning series. A Tori Amos-related episode is a poignant highlight. 

WHEN YOU CAN SEE IT On Netflix now.
