David Lynch Teaches Creativity and Film

UpInTheAirPoster 1

My top pick this week is Jason Reitman’s new film Up in the Air, which is opening in limited release (and which I probably won’t see until mid-week).  The reviews are great for the film, with it receiving an 85% Fresh rating at Rotten Tomatoes.

The other releases this week include Armored (not screened for critics), the drama Brothers (65% Fresh), and the Christmas film Everybody’s Fine (47% Fresh).

And that’s this weekend in movies.
