The Second Season of Murder in a Small Town introduces some season-long conflicts for Karl (Rossif Sutherland) and Cassandra (Kristin Kreuk) to deal with following her election to the town council with the mayor (Marcia Gay Harden) attempting to pit the pair against each other suggesting the town’s limited resources can’t handle an increase in both police funding and the arts center central to Cassandra’s campaign platform.

Eleanor The Great

/ / Movie Reviews
  • Title: Eleanor The Great
  • IMDb: link

Eleanor The Great is a story about love, loss, the lies we tell others, and the lies we tell ourselves while struggling through grief and searching for connection and meaning in this crazy ride we call life. We first meet the goodhearted truth-bending Eleanor (June Squibb) in Florida before her return to New York, for the first time in decades, after the death of her longtime friend Bessie (Rita Zohar). Living with the daughter (Jessica Hecht) she doesn’t get along with, and struggling for connection, Eleanor walks into a room which will change her life.

Mistaken for a Holocaust survivor, Eleanor shares Bessie’s story as her own finding a new community and a new friend in a college student (Erin Kellyman) struggling with the recent death of her mother, and the growing distance with her father (Chiwetel Ejiofor), who becomes interested in sharing Eleanor’s story unaware of the lie which holds all of it together.
