**Boys Go to Jupiter (Julian Glander)**

Boys Go to Jupiter, an animated film both directed and written by Pittsburgh-based 3D artist Julian Glander, is undoubtedly reflective of its era—now. As noted in the press release: “[The film] was self-produced and animated entirely over 90 days using the free, open-source 3D modeling software Blender. Peisin Yang Lazo provided executive production.” Clocking in at approximately 85 minutes, the movie features an impressive voice cast (including Elsie Fisher, Julio Torres, Sarah Sherman, Joe Pera, Janeane Garofalo, Demi Adejuyigbe, Cole Escola, and Eva Victor, among others). It strikes a balance of humor and deeper introspection about our screen-filled lives. Occasionally lengthy, it remains captivating and consistently unusual. – Dan M. (full review)

**Directed by Jafar Panahi**

As his award-winning film It Was Just an Accident screens in theaters, the Criterion Channel is highlighting Jafar Panahi’s remarkable body of work. Their retrospective encompasses films like The White Balloon, The Mirror, This Is Not a Film, Taxi, 3 Faces, and No Bears.

**Directed by Werner Herzog**

A comprehensive retrospective of nearly 30 films by Werner Herzog has launched on the Criterion Channel. From classics like Aguirre, the Wrath of God and Fitzcarraldo to underappreciated gems such as Land of Silence and Darkness, Stroszeck, and My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done, it is a trove of adventurous cinema.

**Fairyland (Andrew Durham)**

Andrew Durham’s Fairyland stars Scoot McNairy as Steve Abbott, a single father who brings his daughter Alysia to San Francisco in the early 1970s following his wife’s death in a car accident. Based on a memoir of the same name by Alysia Abbott, this debut feature delves into nearly two decades of their father-daughter bond. Midway through, Alysia ages quickly from an innocent child (Nessa Dougherty) to a troubled teenager (Emilia Jones). Steve, perhaps as open-minded a father as he can be, is bisexual, and his life becomes intertwined with the AIDS crisis; the film’s conclusion feels inevitable. – Michael F. (full review)

**Frankenstein (Guillermo del Toro)**

In the specialized academic realm of monster studies, the conventional understanding of monstrosity closely parallels that of queerness: by being “different,” a monster disrupts established norms of normality, revealing their inherent fiction. This is especially evident in the relationship between Victor Frankenstein and his creation as per Mary Shelley’s novel. The bond between maker and creature illustrates our interdependence in defining humanity in relation to its “other.” Given the recurring themes in Guillermo del Toro’s films, including Cronos and the Oscar-winning The Shape of Water, his eagerly awaited adaptation of Frankenstein comes as no surprise. Oscar Isaac gives a delightfully unrecognizable performance as the mad scientist Victor Frankenstein, showcasing a wild appearance at the North Pole. – Savina P. (full review)

**Good Fortune (Aziz Ansari)**

To hear Azrael's (Stephen McKinley Henderson) tale is to appreciate the full extent of an angel's purpose. He doesn’t merely concern himself with natural disasters or nurturing brilliance; he saves souls by reminding them of their worth. Gabriel (Keanu Reeves) aspires to emulate him but finds himself at the lower ranks, his wings barely extending past his shoulders. Martha (Sandra Oh) has him gently guiding distracted drivers to look away from their phones, and he’s a meter maid with dreams of rock stardom. – Jared M. (full review)

**Materialists (Celine Song)**

Materialists presents a classic screwball premise: a young, attractive matchmaker encounters the dashing, wealthy man of her dreams on the same night she bumps into her broke but charming ex-boyfriend. However, Celine Song’s second feature adopts a drier, more dramatic style to tackle dating in the modern age. Paying homage to Jane Austen, Materialists treats relationships as a numerical equation, with height, income, and age as critical components for dating success. Our time with the central character Lucy (Dakota Johnson) is filled with cold assessments of men, women, and especially herself. When rich finance guy Harry (Pedro Pascal) takes her for dinner, Lucy describes herself as a failed actress and college dropout Each week, we showcase notable titles that have recently become available on streaming platforms in the United States.
