posted in: All News | 0

Whoa, dudes.

“Bill & Ted Face the Music” comes out Aug. 28, but we won’t be able to review the Keanu Reeves/Alex Winter sequel just yet. But here are some other options.

“The Garden Left Behind”: Flavio Alves’s eloquent debut is a rarity, a caring, complex and realistic drama anchored around a transgender lead character played by a transgender actress. An outstanding and restrained Carlie Guevara plays Tina, an undocumented Mexican woman living in a small New York City apartment with her loving grandmother (Miriam Cruz). Tina seeks to make her way as a transgender woman while dealing with a rich but erratic boyfriend (Alex Kruz).
