Synopsis

When Steve Bannon left his position as White House chief strategist less than a week after the Charlottesville “Unite the Right” rally in August 2017, he was already a notorious figure in Trump’s inner circle, and for bringing a far-right ideology into the highest echelons of American politics. Unconstrained by an official post—though some say he still has a direct line to the White House—he became free to peddle influence as a perceived kingmaker, turning his controversial brand of nationalism into a global movement. THE BRINK follows Bannon through the 2018 mid-term elections in the United States, shedding light on his efforts to mobilize and unify far-right parties in order to win seats in the May 2019 European Parliamentary elections. To maintain his power and influence, the former Goldman Sachs banker and media investor reinvents himself—as he has many times before—this time as the self-appointed leader of a global populist movement. Keen manipulator of the press and gifted self-promoter, Bannon continues to draw headlines and protests wherever he goes, feeding the powerful myth on which his survival relies.

Limited and VOD Releases: New Releases have Gone Screwy

Diane

It’s another short week for limited releases. That said, five of the seven films on this week’s list are earning 80% positive reviews or better, so what we lack in quantity, we make up for with quality. On the downside, the film with the best reviews, Diane, is also playing on Video on Demand, so its box office chances are not great. More...
