Nightmare Alley (2021) – Movie Review
Half gothic horror, half swanky noir, Nightmare Alley is a lot of cinema. It is written to fit together like clockwork, designed and shot to look like the best classics.
Belfast (2021) – Movie Review
All the accolades will make you think there must be something about Belfast. I suggest you look elsewhere.
The Disciple (2021) – Movie Review
It was hard for me to engage with the specific in The Disciple, but the general is filled with universal emotions.
The Tragedy of Macbeth (2022) – Movie Review
The Tragedy of Macbeth is so much my jam that if I didn’t know better I’d think it was made just for me. This is an endorsement as much as it is a warning, because it could very well be that everything that I like about this project is what puts you off.
