New trailers: Black Mirror, The Punisher, and more

It's a really great movie — and Rebecca Hall's performance is just amazing — but the weird thing is, part of me wishes it hadn't been confined to reality.

The movie tells the story of the real life news anchor Christine Chubbuck, who shot herself on air. It follows her struggles at work and with depression, and it ultimately builds a really fascinating, compelling character. I'm not sure if it's possible to detach her death from the story Christine is trying to tell, and yet something about the story makes me wish it were possible. Maybe it's just that we assume stories will have a positive ending, and it feels weird when one doesn't; or maybe I just ended up feeling as restless at the end as the movie wanted me to feel.
