Mid-July Roundup: Palm Springs | First Cow | Eurovision & more!

In the first episode of our by-popular-demand new biweekly format, we review five movies from the first half of July: David Dobkin’s unexpectedly gentle musical comedy EUROVISION SONG CONTEST: THE STORY OF FIRE SAGA, Max Barbakow’s hilarious and thought-provoking romcom PALM SPRINGS, Kelly Reichardt’s tender ode to friendship FIRST COW, Hirokazu Kore-eda’s French mother-daughter dramedy THE TRUTH, and Dawn Porter’s important but lackluster documentary JOHN LEWIS: GOOD TROUBLE.
