Universal has a good opportunity to become the last standing dream factory. Lure away talent (like they did with Nolan), snatch up excised visionaries, become the alternative to the Skydance slop machine on the way.

Tom McCarthy’s A STATEMENT recreates a 1980 conference about climate change with warmth, humor, and gentle precision. It’s filled with great performances. It’s really entertaining. And by the end you’ll feel uncontainable, harrowing despair. My review: www.vulture.com/article/the-...
