Join us weekly as Rotten Tomatoes reports on what’s indie features are streaming. From promising releases by new voices to experimental efforts from storied filmmakers – or perhaps the next indie darling to go the distance for end-of-year accolades – we will break it all down for you here each week.
This week in our Indie Fresh List, we have a 70’s crime thriller, a drunken dark comedy, a mindbending relationship thriller, and a heartwarming documentary about kids writing to Santa. In our Spotlight section, we bring back Kindred along with a new interview with the film’s director, Joe Marcantonio. In our Indie Trailers section, we have new clips featuring The Crown’s Vanessa Kirby, Shia Labeouf, and Jason Segel.
