"Beatriz At Dinner" Will Be The First Post-Trump Cinematic Statement



I saw this at Sundance. "Beatriz At Dinner" has been written of as the first post-Trump statement we've had in cinema. Fair enough. I can see it. Miguel Arteta's film has John Lithgow's character, a ruthless real estate mogul, teasing, to the point of high tension, Salma Hayek's Mexican massage therapist at a posh business-minded dinner her client unexpectedly invites her to. I loved it, even up to its WTF ending. It comes out on June 9th and seems to have only gained in relevance the last few months.
