Waves (2019)

  • Others
  • 2019, Trey Edward Shults, USA
  • 3 Comments

At times intoxicating, the filmโ€™s kaleidoscopic approach to exploring the depths of human emotions is invigorating and refreshing.

Witch, The (2015)

  • Eggers, Robert
  • 2015, Robert Eggers, USA
  • 4 Comments

Eggersโ€™ first feature is remarkable in its precision and economy, and no doubt one of the most bone-chilling horror films to come out in the last few years.

Little Women (2019)

  • Gerwig, Greta
  • 2019, Greta Gerwig, USA
  • 7 Comments

Backed by superb performances, particularly from Saoirse Ronan and Florence Pugh, Greta Gerwigโ€™s screen adaptation of Louisa May Alcottโ€™s classic novel is refreshing, poignant and utterly compelling.

Marriage Story (2019)

  • Baumbach, Noah
  • 2019, Noah Baumbach, USA
  • 9 Comments

Led by two quite effective leads in Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson, Baumbachโ€™s film about the perils of marriage and the pain of divorce has moments to savour.

Chinatown (1974)

  • Polanski, Roman
  • 1974, Roman Polanski, USA
  • 3 Comments

Polanski’s greatest accomplishment, and one of the finest American films ever made from the ’70s.

While We’re Young (2014)

  • Baumbach, Noah
  • 2014, Noah Baumbach, USA
  • Leave a comment

A drama-comedy that tells us painful truths about growing up (and old) through the kind of offbeat comedy that writer-director Noah Baumbach is synonymous with.

Greenberg (2010)

  • Baumbach, Noah
  • 2010, Noah Baumbach, USA
  • 3 Comments

A passive character study disguised as a romantic-comedy that feels too laidback for it to work convincingly.

Irishman, The (2019)

  • Criterion Collection, Scorsese, Martin
  • 2019, Martin Scorsese, USA
  • 6 Comments

Scorsese delivers another career-high mob film that is quite unlike what he has done before in what could be a strong Best Picture contender.

Da Sweet Blood of Jesus (2014)

  • Lee, Spike
  • 2014, Spike Lee, USA
  • Leave a comment

Has no real narrative impetus and mistakes a laidback filmmaking style for meaning-making, this modern โ€˜Ganja and Hessโ€™ remake by Spike Lee is a turn-off.

Rosemary’s Baby (1968)

  • Criterion Collection, Polanski, Roman
  • 1968, Roman Polanski, USA
  • 2 Comments

More psychological drama than pure horror, Polanski’s classic will haunt viewers willing to be immersed in its reality.
