The film unspools over a single day, months after a global ecological collapse has forced world leaders to take extreme measures to reduce the earth’s population. In a wealthy enclave, a recently retired newsman has invited his grown children to dinner to announce his intentions to enlist in the nation’s new euthanasia program. Joel Smallbone is an appealing actor, even if it is a bit distracting that he’s portraying his own father (he has described the experience as a “therapy session”). Joel is also a character in the film, as a child (Diesel La Torraca), while Daisy Betts plays Helen, the Smallbone matriarch and Joel’s mother. Helen is, of course, the unsung hero of this story, the heart and spine of the family who insists on keeping them together while David makes one last-ditch attempt to make it in the music industry in Nashville.

Each seat has a tray with a menu and ordering form underneath and a ballpoint pen attached for ease of ordering. “Bringing fun and whimsy to a night out at the movies has been our mission since we opened 28 years ago,” said Alamo Drafthouse Cinema founder Tim League. To celebrate its opening, Alamo Drafthouse is offering 25% certain menu items for guests that visit the theater between April 29 and May 2. Texas-founded Alamo Drafthouse has never had a Florida location. The company chose Naples to be the home of its first.

I think I think these guys had the right idea to wait,” he said of CMG. Arnow lives in Brooklyn and works as a cinematographer and editor. She has a few film projects in development she’s been taking around. The Feeling That The Time For Doing Something Has Past co-stars Scott Cohen (Gilmore Girls), Babak Tafti (Billions), Alysia Reiner (Orange is the New Black), and Michael Cyril Creighton (Only Murders In the Building).

It opens at the IFC Center and Film at Lincoln Center (Q&As all weekend) with a limited rollout to follow. Millennial, raw and cringey are words that come up. Asked about that, she says she finds it “sort of reductive and diminishing” — and not all that uncommon for female filmmakers. They clean houses and landscape yards, clip coupons and accept the charity that comes their way, reluctantly, on David’s part. Cinematic memoir can be a complex creative endeavor. Film is a collaborative medium and memoir requires a certain acknowledgment of the author’s creation.

It’s a humble story, one with the capacity to inspire in its simple message of perseverance. But the film itself, as an artistic product, feels limited in its observational scope, because the filmmaker doesn’t have any distance from the material. Smallbone is a fine actor, but alongside Ramsey, he’s a limited filmmaker. Their visual style is drab at best, and the storytelling lacks the kind of self-reflection that might elevate this project.

Art boasts a personal massage therapist, a refrigerator of cold-pressed juices, a line of his own personalized racquets and a wife who doubles as his business manager and coach. Patrick is a single, chain-smoking never-was who scavenges leftover bagels, sleeps in his car and gets shut down when he attempts to trade an autographed racquet for the deposit on a motel room. While David struggles with the dampening of his dreams, his daughter Rebecca (Kirrilee Berger) is just starting to embrace her musical aspirations. But she can’t chase them until her father gets over his own deep hurt at being rejected by the industry. It takes him some time to understand the advice given to him by his own father, James (Terry O’Quinn), back in Australia, that his family isn’t in the way of what he wants.

With so many food and drink choices, if Billy Joel tried to include them all in a song, it would be longer than his 4½-minute 1989 hit "We Didn't Start the Fire." The new theater at Mercato in North Naples opens April 29, in the same location as Silverspot, which opened in 2009 ― one year after the outdoor shopping and entertainment center opened. “We’ve been running a year-long capstone series called Time Capsules, where we focus on a few anniversary years from 1974 to 1999.

If rage was packaged like Wheaties, she’d be on the box. She gets the funniest, meanest comebacks and holds the screen like a woman in command, even when she allows the film to leer. Guadagnino introduces her in a rump-centric shot that recalls the “Athena Girl,” that bestselling 1970s calendar photo of a tennis jock scratching her bare bottom. Tashi, of course, would never be so slobbish toward the sport she adores.

Without that self-reflection, it can slip into murky, confusing territory. This space is where the new film “Unsung Hero,” which is billed as a “For King & Country Film,” exists. Riley’s brother reached out to WINK on Friday, saying people aren’t getting the full story.

He did months of interviews with adoption agencies, social services, families, and the people who help them face with critical decisions. And, “I put in what I remember about bringing up three little girls,” he tells Deadline.
