The week's new titles for streaming, VOD and physical media include documentaries about shark attacks, boxing and a zany re-creation of Beanie Baby mania.
Australian YouTubers-turned-directors Danny and Michael Philippou reveal the secrets of their A24 horror hit ‘Talk to Me’ in three spoiler-laden scenes Ivy Meeropol’s documentary “After the Bite” is set in and around a Cape Cod town that was rocked by a fatal shark encounter in 2018, and which has since been divided over how best to respond. The answer isn’t as simple as a hiring a crusty old fisherman to track and kill a great white, à la “Jaws.
Are the sharks threatening the coastline because they’re hunting for seals, which are a protected species? Are those same seals responsible for devouring all the local fish, at the expense of the fishing business? Or is a warming planet and decades of rapacious human industry to blame for everything? If “After the Bite” ultimately has more questions than answers, it’s only because the film is reflecting the people it’s about, who see existential dangers everywhere and no easy way back to safety.
Villena’s film is ostensibly about the disconnect between De La Hoya’s initial public image and his later reputation; but that’s a tricky dichotomy to explore, and “The Golden Boy” often seems at a loss for how to encapsulate both everything fans loved about De La Hoya and everything he was alleged to have done wrong.
