Today, we begin the hour with another installment of Midday at the Movies, our monthly look at films and filmmaking. We're pleased to have with us again movie mavens Ann Hornaday, film critic for the Washington Post, who joins us on Zoom, and Jed Dietz, the founder and former director (ret.) of the Maryland Film Festival and Parkway Theater. Jed is with us in Studio A.
Today, we spotlight several new films, including The Woman King; Don't Worry, Darling; and Catherine Called Birdy, and review some of the other new movies showcased at last month's Toronto International Film Festival.
