Songs My Brothers Taught Me (2015)
High school senior Johnny is about to leave the Pine Ridge Reservation when his rodeo-cowboy father suddenly dies.
Intense, naturalistic drama of young people living on a reservation has a complex narrative with lots of diverse characters; skillfully staged and brilliantly photographed.

The World, the Flesh and the Devil (1959)
A miner trapped in a cave-in resurfaces, and upon discovering mankind has been wiped out in a nuclear holocaust, sets out to find other survivors.
Unusual and imaginative doomsday film slowly turns its
story into a mediocre melodrama, but the scenes of deserted New York
City are absolutely spectacular.
Halliwell*: "Enterprising but rather disappointing fantasy which tends to become merely glum and rather self-consciously carries a panic button message."
Maltin**1/2: "Intriguing film starts well, bogs down halfway through, and presents ridiculous conclusion. Best scenes are at beginning, when Belafonte is alone in an impressively deserted Manhattan."

4D Man (1959)
A scientist discovers a formula enabling him to pass through solid surfaces, but he also rapidly ages, which forces him to kill humans in order to reverse the aging process by absorbing his victims' energies.
Imaginative
low-budget sci-fi thriller compensates its rather poor special effects
with the uniqueness of its premise and well-handled, suspenseful
narrative.
Maltin**1/2: "Well-handled sci-fi..."
