Dana Hawley /© Lionsgate /Courtesy Everett CollectionThree years may be too early to call the film a “masterpiece,” but hold on – Does God Exist? It’s me, Margaret the art of film. The new one Abby Ryder Fortson stars as Margaret, a curious teenager reaching the age where her hormones kick in and questions arise about all the strange changes her body is going through. And he notices the adult world from a new perspective, especially when his family moves from New York City to (shudder) New Jersey. Why did his mother, Barbara (Rachel McAdams), separated from his parents? Why hasn’t Margaret gotten her period like her friends? And even though she talks to Him all the time, does Margaret really believe in God?

With excellent support including Kathy Bates as Margaret’s loud but loving grandmother, Does God Exist? It’s me, Margaret it documents the growing pains that are often difficult for children and adults to endure and how one cannot stop asking for divine help when the going gets tough.
“Bull Durham” (1988)
Summertime is prime baseball season, so why not treat yourself to that Sports Illustrated claims the number 1 sports movie of all time? Bull Durham stars Kevin Costner as “Crash” Davis, a Durham Bulls baseball player assigned to train hotshot newbie, Ebby Calvin LaLoosh (Tim Robbins). He has competition in the directing department, like the baseball team that creates Annie (Susan Sarandon) chooses Ebby to be his latest “apprentice” this season. The only problem? Crash really likes Annie, and seems to dig her, too. This love triangle has no place inside a baseball diamond, especially when the bulls rise to the minor league level thanks to Ebby’s performances – and Crash and Annie’s coaching.
Bull Durham it’s the odd sports movie that works best as a rom-com. While the minor league baseball games are entertaining, they are not the focus of the film; instead, there’s a soft, romantic tango between Crash, Annie and Ebby. Costner is at his best here – his easy masculinity and rugged good looks make Crash catnip to Annie and, in a way, to Ebby, too. As good as she is, this is Sarandon’s movie. Charming, intelligent and extremely confident, her Annie loves baseball almost as much as the men she plays with, and she’ll convert you to her “Baseball Church” before you know it.
‘Night of the Hunter’ (1955)
Robert Mitchum in Night of the Hunter.
EverettWhen he was alive, he was an English actor Charles Laughton he was known for his stage and screen roles, such as his canny barrister A witness for the prosecution and his Oscar-winning role as Henry VIII in The Private Life of Henry VIII. But the thespian is now best known for directing Night of the Hunteran American Gothic thriller that was a flop when it was released in 1955, Laughton never directed again. (He died shortly after in 1963). From the ashes of failure, the film has earned a reputation as a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, and still has the power to amuse and horrify anyone who watches it.
After the criminal Harry Powell (Robert Mitchum) reads from his soon-to-be executed prison partner, Ben Harper (Peter Graves), that he has money hidden at home, he is patiently waiting to be released so that he can take the loot for himself. Posing as a preacher, he persuades Ben’s widow, Willa (Shelley Winters), then marries her, but soon finds out that she doesn’t know where the money is. His two children, John (Billy Chapinand Pearl (Sally Jane Bruce), however, know who Harry is, what Harry wants and where Harry can find it, but they don’t tell. Harry doesn’t care – one way or another, he’ll get what he wants, even if he has to kill every member of the Harper family to do it.
