The movie’s title is a bit of a mouthful, I’ll give you that. “The Body Remembers When The World Broke Open.” But don’t be fooled. It’s not some bloated art-house indulgence dripping in pretension. It’s more like a quiet punch to the gut that you feel long after the credits roll—a film that speaks softly…
Let’s talk about Time Out (originally titled L’Emploi du Temps). If you’re expecting a fast-paced thriller or a neatly packaged drama, you won’t find it here. This is one of those rare films that sneaks up on you, unsettling you in ways you can’t quite put into words. Laurent Cantet directs, but it’s Aurélien Recoing’s…
Death. There’s no topic more sobering, no reality more unavoidable. It’s the shared destination we all reach someday. But what if we could face it with a smile—or at least with a wry grin? That’s what Kirsten Johnson’s documentary, Dick Johnson Is Dead, tries to do. It’s not your typical film about death. It’s a…
Joker: Folie à Deux isn’t your run-of-the-mill superhero flick. No capes, no cosmic battles, no easy morality. In fact, it’s hard to even call it a superhero movie at all. The same can be said of the first Joker—which this film builds upon, but not in a way fans might expect. Instead of delivering another…
I watched Look Back recently, and it left a pretty deep impression on me. It’s one of those films that you sit with for a while afterward, processing not just what it’s saying, but how it says it. It’s a short, beautifully animated story that feels like a meditation on art, creativity, and loss. You…
Quentin Dupieux’s Daaaaaali! is something else. Imagine a film that doesn’t want you to overthink things but instead nudges you toward laughter and absurdity, all while parading the chaotic brilliance of Salvador Dalí, but without ever fully “capturing” him. Because really, how do you capture Dalí? He’s more like a feeling, an idea—a wild, surreal…
There’s a certain challenge that comes with making a movie about the Holocaust. It’s not just about showing the horror — it’s about finding a way to speak to it in a manner that’s meaningful, respectful, and compelling. That’s a hard line to walk for any filmmaker. Marc Forster’s White Bird steps into this challenging…
There’s something uniquely captivating about movies that tackle addiction without romanticizing it or beating you over the head with melodrama. But The Outrun is one of those rare exceptions — it somehow takes you by surprise, leaving you unprepared for how deeply it resonates. Adapted from Amy Liptrot’s acclaimed memoir, this film doesn’t just dip…
Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis is a cinematic firestorm—blazing, chaotic, brimming with ambition and ideas that burn hot and fast, sometimes too fast for their own good. You’re either caught up in the blaze or left in the ashes, wondering what just happened. Coppola, who already has a track record of pushing boundaries, takes a sharp…
The Universal Theory is one of those films that’s hard to pin down. It’s a strange mix of ideas, influences, and aesthetics that somehow manages to entertain without ever quite finding its footing. Set in the Swiss Alps in 1962, the story is centered around the possibility of a rift in reality, a tear in…
