Handsomely staged, capably brought to life by cast and crew, “The White Crow” is a compelling depiction of an extraordinary man at the center of a moment in history that at the time became an international sensation.
Strong performances from Laura Dern and Jack O’Connell highlight what audiences get in “Trial by Fire.” Their work when paired with the capable storytelling capabilities of director Edward Zwick do much to lift the material.
While well-acted, “Stockholm” never fully commits to a tone. As a hostage drama it lacks true tension. As a comedy it goes light on playing its situations for laughs.
