Previously on Midlife Crisis Crossover: Sometimes I go to the movies and write about it! After the dense Oscars season ran me ragged through early March, I was okay with taking a break. It wasn't completely by choice, mind you. The April release calendar seemed sparse except for a trio of populist colossi that toppled all competitors at the box office and had nothing to do with me: two sequels to films I hadn't seen yet, and a sugarcoated pop-music hagiography that was all its subject's undiscerning superfans really wanted, the better to revivify the estate's merchandise sales and back-catalog earnings. Theater owners shoveled plenty of money into their coffers without me thanks to...well, to the average crowds who almost never step inside theaters anymore, really. Cinema is back, baby! I guess! Remember last century when folks would pick a night and time to go to the movies, show up, then see what's showing and decide what they wanted to see? No, really, this was a common activity for friends, family, and dates. I tried it a few times -- sometimes to happy surprise (My Best Friend's Wedding!) and sometimes to deep hurting (Problem Child 2). I haven't done that in ages, but I toyed with the modern equivalent: I kept checking the AMC app every week and waiting for something -- anything -- to jump out at me and whisper, "Don't let your entire AMC Stubs monthly fee go to waste!" Exactly once in April, I spotted a listing with just enough pedigree to earn a "sure, why not" outing: a short, twisty British heist thriller called Fuze that hardly garnered any public notice. It didn't crack the U.S. Top 10 in its first week and was yanked from all local screens the next weekend. It'll be streaming at the end of May, and probably discounted before autumn, but its thoughtful approach to well-trodden ground deserves a mention.
