This sounds kind of like that.

New to rent

All Dirt Roads Taste of Salt

Where to watch: Available to rent on Amazon, Apple, and Vudu

Genre: Drama
Run time: 1h 37m
Director: Raven Jackson
Cast: Kaylee Nicole Johnson, Chris Chalk, Jayah Henry

Jumping back and forth in time, writer-director Raven Jackson’s latest drama follows the story of a pair of Black sisters growing up in the South. Described as a “a poetic memoir [...] that bobs and weaves through mundane and life-defining moments alike” by critic Monica Castillo, the trailer is light on words but heavy on mood and feeling.

Based on Ottessa Moshfegh’s 2015 novel, this psychological thriller stars Thomasin McKenzie (Last Night in Soho) as a young secretary who becomes infatuated with Rebecca (Anne Hathaway), the charismatic new psychologist at the juvenile detention facility where she works. As their friendship grows, Eileen finds herself exploring new aspects of her personality — to equally sinister and deadly effect.

Mayhem!

Where to watch: Available to rent on Amazon, Apple, and Vudu

Genre: Crime action
Run time: 1h 39m
Director: Xavier Gens
Cast: Nassim Lyes, Loryn Nounay, Olivier Gourmet

An early contender for one of this year’s best action films, Mayhem follows Samir (Nassim Lyes), an ex-con and martial artist, who flees from France to Thailand to escape his former gang. Struggling to build a new life, Samir finds himself once again dragged into a world of deceit and violence when a powerful real estate tycoon kidnaps a member of his family.

From our review:

Mayhem’s action is brutal and kinetic, with inventive kills, strong location work, and realistic choreography that makes the most of Lyes’ kickboxing pedigree. It’s a true star-making performance for him, as he juggles the role’s demanding physical requirements with a deep well of sorrow that permeates the entire affair, even as he dispatches foe after foe.
