If Iñárritu longs to have his masochism and refute it, too, Bardo can be seen as an overfull-length elaboration on the theme, an entire movie about a man desperate to get the last, measuredly self-deprecating word.
"Bardo: A False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths," "Snow Day," "The Recruit," "Beauty and the Beast: A 30th Celebration" and "If These Walls Could Sing" are among the streaming entertainment options this weekend.
This week, pop culture critic Richard Crouse reviews new movies: Avatar: The Way of the Water , Bardo, False Chronicles of a Handful of Truths, The Eternal Daughter and I m Totally Fine.
