The Card Counter – Review
by Charlotte HarrisonWhen it comes to film writing, few things are as nerve-wracking or imposter syndrome inducing as preparing to write a negative review of a film that has been loudly lauded and is clearly deeply beloved by others. It got to the point where I even debated going to see the film again before writing this review, as I so desperately wanted to see … Continue reading The Card Counter – Review
Lamb – Review
by Jordan King Lamb – A.K.A In The Bleat Midwinter – is one of the most bizarre, beguiling feature debuts we have been given in some time. Directed by Valdimar Jóhannsson, who shares writing duties with frequent Björk collaborator and Robert Eggers’ The Northman co-writer Sjón, Lamb offers viewers a mesmerically off-kilter story about an unlikely found family formed on an Icelandic mountainside farmstead.

Edgar Wright Week: Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (2010) – Review
Edgar Wright is a man who loves film and it shows in every little thing that he does. Every short, every use of music, every piece of editing – It all stems from a deeply rooted appreciation for this beautiful art. The Cornetto Trilogy was a comedy gold, and Baby Driver is one of the best original films, but nothing stands taller for me than … Continue reading Edgar Wright Week: Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (2010) – Review
