ONCE MORE, INTO THE CINEMATIC BREACH

Last year, I pegged Terrence Malick’s “Knight of Cups” as the 2015 movie I was salivating with the most voracity.  Unfortunately, 2015 was the year that “Knight of Cups” was delayed until March 2016.  So here it is, stubbornly, on my most-anticipated movies list of 2016.  And by the way, Bernardo Bertolucci’s “Io E Te” is here again too, even though it was supposed to have been released years ago. 

A movie buff can dream.
