NOPE | Official Trailer

After the Peacock streaming app scored Jordan Peel’s third feature, , many people chose to use their free trial to see the film, which had done pretty well in theaters (estimated at $171 million), but not nearly as well as Us (estimated at $256 million in 2019) or Get Out (estimated at $255 million in 2017). Nope is a fine film and deserves a wider audience. Luckily Prime Video is there for just that. Nope, Peele’s most accessible film, centers on an African-American family of horse trainers for Hollywood films, a tradition which they note goes all the way back to the advent of moving pictures. When patriarch Otis Haywood Sr. (Keith David) dies in a mysterious way, it’s up to truculent son Otis Jr. (Daniel Kaluuya) and flaky daughter Emerald (Keke Palmer) to keep the lights on at the ranch. Otis Jr., or O.J., decides to start selling off a few of the family’s horses to Jupe Park (Steven Yuen), the owner of a nearby Old West theme park who is also a cult favorite child star for all the wrong reasons. From there, a mystery unfolds and the Haywoods team up with a Fry’s Electronics clerk (Brandon Perea) and a Herzogian cinematographer (Michael Wincott) as the movie morphs into Jaws with UFOs.

    There were no “new” members of the Marx Brothers. There were five altogether, but only these four ever made it to the big screen. Gummo, who was the second youngest, only performed on stage and left the act when he was drafted into service during WWI. Zeppo left the act when they left Paramount, and after that, the team was composed only of Groucho, Harpo, and Chico.
