And if there’s a God, The Many Saints of Newark (Warner Bros./HBO Max, 10.1) will play at Telluride. You can tell it has character, texture…you can tell it’s an actual film made by and for people who are invested in Tri-State area mythology. And you can sense that ardent fans of this film will be…how to put this?…somewhat less enamored of Black Widow.
I can relate, by the way. I grew up (painfully) in New Jersey, and I didn’t apply myself in high school either.
