Score one for awesomeness today -- director Kelly Reichardt is re-teaming with her First Cow and Showing Up actor John Magaro for her next one! I'm surprised I didn't do a post on this movie when the news broke that it was going to also star Josh O'Connor -- I think that came when I was firmly enconsed in NYFF happenings and doings -- but we're here now doing it and that's what really matters. Tge movie is called The Mastermind and it's about an art-heist and it will also star Licorice Pizza's terrific Alana Haim -- I wasn't sure if she was going to keep acting after that (since she's originally a musician -- but I'm glad she's keeping it up! She's good at it. Anyway we're always seated for Kelly Reichardt and even more we've yet to be disappointed in so doing, and with this cast -- shut the front door et cetera. This plot, genre-tinted as it is, is giving me memories of Night Moves, her excellent 2013 eco-thriller of sorts with Jesse Eisenberg, Dakota Fanning, and Peter Sarsgaard. God I love Night Moves! So underrated, that one.

Big fan of Night Moves as well and Reichardt in general, though Showing Up didn't do a lot for me unfortunately.
