4 Shots From 4 Films is just what it says it is, 4 shots from 4 of our favorite films. As opposed to the reviews and recaps that we usually post, 4 Shots From 4 Films is all about letting the visuals do the talking.
The official trailer for Guillermo Del Toro’s take on the Mary Shelley’s classic gothic horror Frankenstein has finally been released.
An earlier teaser was sent out months ago, but that was mostly played off like sizzle reel of what Del Toro had been up to with this latest adaptation. This official trailer gives us a much more closer look at the type of adaptation Del Toro decided to take with Shelley’s novel of the tortured scientist and his creation.
Even though it will be show up on Netflix on November 7, 2025, I do believe that this film needs to be seen on the big screen when a select cities get them on October 17, 2025.
The Chicago Independent Film Critics Circle should not be mistaken for the Chicago Film Critics Association. However, since they’re both in Chicago, that does give me an excuse to once again use this picture of Al Capone.
Here are the nominees!
THE 10 BEST INDEPENDENT FILMS (in alphabetical order):
The Big Sick, Call Me By Your Name, The Florida Project, Get Out, A Ghost Story, Lady Bird, Lucky, Mudbound, The Shape of Water, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

The complete list of nominees for the 2017 CIFCC Awards:
The winners will be announced on December 28th.
It’s interesting to note that The Post is almost totally shut out here. One thing I’ve noticed that critics who work for newspapers love The Post. They see it as proof of their importance. Online critics are far less impressed with The Post. They tend to view it as a lament for a dead medium, a somewhat stodgy celebration of the past. Whenever I finally get a chance to see The Post, I’ll let you know who’s right.

TOP TEN FILMS (Alphabetical)
Two days ago, the North Texas Film Critics Association announced their nominations for the best of 2017!
On twitter, there’s been a lot of speculation as to why the NTFCA totally snubbed Call Me By Your Name in their nominations. Hilariously, some people — all from out-of-state, of course — are assuming that the NTFCA must be made up of evangelical, right-wingers because it’s a Texas organization. Seriously, those people have no idea how left-wing most members of the Texas media are. Texas may be a Republican state but most of our native film critics are somewhere to the left of Bernie Sanders.
Anyway, here are the nominees:

Earlier today, the Seattle Film Critics Society announced their nominations for the best of 2017! The winners will be announced on December 18th.
The most interesting thing about Seattle’s nominations? The amount of love that they showed to Blade Runner 2049, an acclaimed film that, with the exception of Roger Deakins’s cinematography, was running the risk of being forgotten during the precursor season. They also showed some love to Logan and The Disaster Artist, which made me happy.
