Trailer Park: So you won’t waste your money on bad movies

By Rachel Levy
INTERMISSION| Movie trailers are a tricky business. They have about 2.5 minutes to convince us that the featured movie is the funniest, scariest, grittiest, generally most awesome film of the moment that deserves our immediate time and money.

Therefore, it’s unfortunate that in addition to whatever regular lineup of shows are on my weekly “can’t miss” list, I can’t resist a good awards show.
