Thanksgiving 2023

★★★½ Watched 14 Nov 2023

This but the opening set piece takes place at the Barnes & Nobles Criterion flash sale. 🦃
Misericordia 2024

★★★★ Watched 20 Aug 2024

A week of homosexual deviancy in the French countryside would cure me.
The Prom 2020

★★½ Watched 08 Dec 2020

Nicole Kidman calling Indiana “cousin humping” was a serve
Shambhala 2024

★★ Watched 13 Jun 2024

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

If you thought breakup texts were horrible, just wait until you receive a breakup stone carving.
Femme 2023

★★★★ Watched 10 Jul 2023

A clever and twisted gay revenge thriller featuring two standout performances. Violent and erotic, the constantly shuffling power dynamic makes for a shocking and sophisticated debut.
Winter Boy 2022

★★★★½ Watched 10 Sep 2022

I’ve never had such a full bodied reaction to tragedy in film, particularly of that in the very first 15 minutes, and I’m conscious about exaggerating as this movie has barely been seen, but Winter Boy is emotional charged knockout.
Led by a relative newcomer, Paul Kircher all but obliterates himself in a role that requires such intense physicality of a young actor. The way he portrays the initial numbness and eventual outburst of grief is astonishing.
Juliette Binoche, is one…
Red Rooms 2023

★★★★ Watched 03 Jan 2025

Says something very interesting about how the world functions in a post-online age. In conversation with Demonlover and The Beast, and very specifically about the post-modern commodification of everything, even people. Cosplay in a courtroom, ISIS videos as NFTs, post-irony, customised AI assistants.
Among the most ahead of its time films of this decade. Excellent probing, disorienting camerawork. Sick Uboa needledrop.
Next Goal Wins 2023

★★ Watched 05 Nov 2023 1

Oh this was like, exceptionally bad. Trying to work out whether it was shot more like a home and contents insurance commercial or a Qantas preflight video.
Lamb 2021

★★★½ Watched 01 Oct 2021

Part 1: aw cute lil baby lamb 🥰
Part 2: that’s no lamb 😡
Part 3: aw cute lil baby lamb 🥰
Started out as a put some pork on your fork campaign and turned into a PETA ad.
Lost in the Night 2023

★★★ Watched 12 Jun 2023

Did not expect to see erect cock on the screen at the State Theatre tonight, but I’m not mad!
Surreal and erotic are not the words I thought I’d be using to describe the new mystery from Amat Escalante, but here we are anyway.
I knew from the first minute featuring the poster of Żuḻawski’s Possession that this would be an unpredictable beast.
SYDNEY FILM FESTIVAL 2023 #10
Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl 2024

★★★½ Watched 02 Jan 2025

Very cute. It remains very impressive what can be achieved with claymation, sad it’s becoming a dying artform. Also achieves the unachievable in making being British look appealing.
The Substance 2024

★★★★ Watched 16 Jun 2024

Closing night of the Sydney Film Festival. There are fewer things more satisfying in life than seeing a sea of seniors walk out of the cinema at the 30 minute mark of this film.
The Substance is unrelenting, and maybe excessive, but there is an honest commitment to its visceral B-movie aesthetics that makes it work.
Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley are both ferocious. It's feral. Can’t wait to rewatch.
