Nicholas Rayโs debut feature is a straightforward lovers-on-the-run โromance-noirโ with strong chemistry between the two leads.
Another extraordinary work by Ray, directed with a profound delicateness that translates into great performances and astonishing visual flourishes.
An extraordinary masterpiece by the great Satyajit Ray that captures the clash between tradition and modernity in a deeply poetic, melancholic (and musical) way.
Rayโs powerful follow-up to โPather Panchaliโ has moments of exquisite emotional beauty and a deep sense of coming-to-terms with an ever-changing, sobering reality.
Another compelling gem from the Dardennesโtender, empathetic and mature, yet so deceptively simple.
Arguably the Dardennesโ most important film with a searing performance by debutant Emilie Dequenne, though its nauseating vรฉritรฉ style takes getting used to.
Now regarded as the first โDardennesโ feature, this is an assured realist work about moral quandaries set to the tune of a coming-of-age film.
Superb political mystery-thriller that is stimulating, and featuring magnetic performances from Jack Lemmon and Sissy Spacek.
One of the most visually-stunning biopics ever made, this complexly-layered work about art, politics, memory and imagination is arguably Paul Schraderโs finest moment as a filmmaker.
