The new thriller ‘The Snowman’ opens in theaters this week while ‘Mindhunter’ has been making a splash on Netflix. One of these things may be worth watching. (By all accounts, it’s not likely the fros...
The world makes a little less sense this week. Oscar-winning filmmaker Jonathan Demme has died at the age of 73.
