Yuliya Vysotskaya in Dear Comrades

Dear Comrades (2021) – Movie Review

The transformation of a proud Soviet party official from dogmatic soldier to human being, this film may be dry but not without sentiment.

Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo in Barb and Star

Barb and Star Go to Vista del Mar (2021) – Movie Review

Unabashedly cheery and joyful, Wiig and Mummolo shine in a good old-fashioned comedy that mixes improv with slapstick and buddy movie tropes.

Kate Winslet and Saoirse Ronan in Ammonite

Ammonite (2021) – Movie Review

Francis Lee’s followup to God’s Own Country is a moody and atmospheric -if oddly cold and passionless- period love story.

Night in Paradise (2021) – Movie Review

Edward Chen and Jing-hua Tseng in Your Name Engraved Herein

Your Name Engraved Herein (2020) – Movie Rev

Part coming of age, part teenage romance, part period piece, part queer study, Your Name Engraved Herein excels in its atmosphere and its weaving of the personal and the political.

Olivia Colman and Anthony Hopkins in The Father

The Father (2021) – Movie Review

There is no escaping that this film is difficult to watch, but the writing, the editing and the performances are truly nothing short of stunning.

Carey Mulligan in Promising Young Woman

Promising Young Woman (2021) – Movie Review

An emotional rollercoaster of a movie, a cinematic gut punch, a movie that’s angry and dark and also funny. I can’t stop thinking about it.
