Film Review - Kneecap
Kneecap follows a fictionalised origin of the Irish rap group Kneecap, pioneered by brothers Liam Óg and Naoise Ó Hannaidh.
Italian Film Fest 2024 Review - Gloria!
Margherita Vicario’s directorial debut is a lively feature that sings with heartfelt moments and comedic witticisms alike, pulling audiences in for a story that is nothing short of glorious.
MIFF 2024 Film Review - DEVO
Like its idiosyncratic subject matter, DEVO is a poignantly hyperkinetic ninety-minute examination of rock music’s most misunderstood band.
Film Review - Stop Making Sense (4K Restoration)
Move aside Taylor Swift. The re-release of Stop Making Sense reiterates that Talking Heads still holds the title for the best concert film ever made.
Fantastic Film Fest 2023 Review - Zillion
Zillion tells the story of the exhilarating rise and fall of visionary entrepreneur Frank Verstraeten, the man responsible for creating and owning – for a time – Belgium’s most chaotically electric nightclub.
Film Review - Tár
A symphony of cinema, bubbling with dark and subtly thrilling emotions, elevated by an incredible lead performance and anchored by adept direction.
Film Review - Summer of Soul (or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised)
Summer of Soul is undoubtedly a stunning blend of art and rebellion not likely to ever be seen again on our screens.
