The Love That Remains (2025) 94% 4/5 EDIT “The Love That Remains is full of the fecundity of life; it's a romantic drama in which love isn't a flame that needs rekindling, but something that weathers, erodes and rebuilds over time.” – The Skinny Mar 9, 2026 Full Review The Brutalist (2024) 93% 5/5 EDIT “The Brutalist displays the scope and vastness of a Le Corbusier highrise. The ambitious approach allows Corbet to dig deep into the psychological strangeness of the immigrant experience, and the exploitative dynamics of capitalism.” – The Skinny Jan 20, 2025 Full Review No Other Land (2024) 100% 4/5 EDIT “No Other Land is an eye-opening and oft infuriating film about the emotional and mental impact of oppression.” – The Skinny Nov 5, 2024 Full Review Three Colors: Red (1994) 100% 5/5 EDIT “Three Colours: Red is the trilogy’s anti-romance, depicting an unconventional love story blossoming against the insurmountable obstacle of age -- perhaps the most adventurous and personal of the trilogy.” – CineVue Mar 30, 2023 Full Review Three Colors: White (1993) 91% 5/5 EDIT “Often overlooked due to its more jovial and subtle approach, Three Colours: White is a surprisingly affecting story that whilst not delivering as strong an emotional hammer blow as Three Colours: Blue is just as an important study of French society.” – CineVue Mar 30, 2023 Full Review Three Colors: Blue (1993) 96% 5/5 EDIT “Like delving into a cold cave of human emotion, Three Colours: Blue is the jewel in the crown of Kieślowski’s trilogy – a fascinating examination of freedom, sorrow and identity, and perhaps one of the most necessary films of contemporary French cinema.” – CineVue Mar 30, 2023 Full Review The Shadowless Tower (2023) 88% EDIT “A supremely confident piece of film-making, The Shadowless Tower is a wistful drama that suggests unlearning yourself is just as important as knowing yourself.” – Little White Lies Feb 20, 2023 Full Review Futura (2021) 80% 4/5 EDIT “Asking a cross-section of young people about their hopes and fears...[The directors] encountered a generation worried about inequality, climate change and the rise of nationalism.” – The Skinny Jul 21, 2022 Full Review Moon, 66 Questions (2021) 97% 4/5 EDIT “A wildly energetic coming-of-age tale with a distinctly intimate style, Moon 66, Questions confirms Jacqueline Lentzou's position as a visionary director.” – The Skinny Jul 21, 2022 Full Review Il buco (2021) 86% 5/5 EDIT “Il Buco is an immersive, often claustrophobic experience, like plunging the audience into the depths of the abyss and leaving them to blindly search for a spark of revelatory light.” – The Skinny Jul 21, 2022 Full Review Flee (2021) 98% 4/5 EDIT “The film is punctuated with moments of tenderness and gentle humour [which] wouldn’t be possible if it wasn't for the trust shared between subject and filmmaker.” – The Skinny Mar 17, 2022 Full Review The United States of America (2022) EDIT “In his quietly subversive Covid-era documentary, Benning offers a wry, yet searching look at an America united not by its principles of opportunity and equality but by its limitations and failures.” – Little White Lies Feb 15, 2022 Full Review The French Dispatch (2021) 75% 4/5 EDIT “For those who share Anderson's fondness for long-form essays and continental culture, The French Dispatch is a rich and absorbing delight.” – The Skinny Oct 13, 2021 Full Review Ballad of a White Cow (2021) 89% EDIT “A well-plotted and tightly structured drama about guilt and responsibility, Ballad of A White Cow exposes how Iran's 'eye for an eye' approach to justice has left society blinkered to the suffering of women.” – Little White Lies Mar 5, 2021 Full Review Cinema Paradiso (1988) 90% 4/5 EDIT “A celebration of cinema's communal experience, this lovingly crafted ode to the joys projected upon the silver screen is a touching celebration of moviegoing.” – CineVue Oct 23, 2020 Full Review Eden (2012) 85% 2/5 EDIT “Eden may function as an inauspicious window into the distressing real world of sex works, but its underlying story not only deserves but positively demands a far more considerate and attentive approach than is shown here.” – CineVue Jul 17, 2020 Full Review The Painted Bird (2019) 81% 3/5 EDIT “The Painted Bird might be difficult to endure, but it is even harder to ignore.” – The Skinny Mar 3, 2020 Full Review Rojo (2018) 96% 4/5 EDIT “Rojo's elaborately constructed script is crammed with political symbolism and subplots designed to deceive.” – The Skinny Sep 4, 2019 Full Review Gloria Bell (2018) 90% 4/5 EDIT “Julianne Moore's effervescent performance adds a sensuality that's arguably missing from the original, but otherwise little has changed in this shot-for-shot remake.” – The Skinny May 30, 2019 Full Review Kill List (2011) 79% 5/5 EDIT “An emotional rollercoaster of a film which devastates and amuses in equal measure.” – CineVue May 24, 2019 Full Review Panic Button (2011) 3/5 EDIT “If you're prepared to suspend your disbelief, you'll certainly find some enjoyment in Panic Button's generic attempt to express these genuinely concerning issues -- even if you take little away from its cautionary tale.” – CineVue May 24, 2019 Full Review Rabies (2010) 78% 4/5 EDIT “This nihilistic, gutsy film's combination of rich ideas and a cultivated ability to deliver all the scares you desire from a good piece of suspenseful gore is an unconventionally infectious product of a thriving Israeli film industry.” – CineVue May 24, 2019 Full Review Damsel (2018) 67% 2/5 EDIT “An off-kilter western about misplaced love that whilst not without its pleasures, ultimately struggles to overcome its abundance of creaky contrivances and absurdities.” – CineVue May 24, 2019 Full Review The Heiresses (2018) 97% 4/5 EDIT “A story about losing and finding romance but choosing independence instead, this deeply felt Paraguayan drama shines a light on the nation's fractured identity by crossing numerous generational and class divides.” – CineVue May 24, 2019 Full Review Dovlatov (2018) 80% 3/5 EDIT “Thankfully, German never idolises his subject, instead allowing the audience to walk alongside him, with intricate tracking shots and immersive sound design alluding to a sense of progression, whilst actually reflecting a life spiralling in circles.” – CineVue May 24,
