It used to be that we movie fans living in this part of the Inland Northwest had to head into Academy Awards season largely blind because not all of the nominees had yet played locally. These days, though, that’s all changed. This week Dan Webster, Nathan Weinbender and Mary Pat Treuthart discuss three movies, two of which are Oscar-nominated and all of which are available for streaming on Netflix. First up is the latest adaptation of the World War I novel “All Quiet on the Western Front” followed by the Indian-made musical drama “RRR” and finally the period-piece mystery “The Pale Blue Eye.”
