https://youtu.be/KhvyupqNhL8 I could rightly be called a charlatan in making this admission but do know I aim to rectify this current state in the immediate future – I am loathed to admit that I have never seen a Walt Stillman film. After LOVE & FRIENDSHIP, this will soon change. Thoroughly charming in every way, … Continue reading
Frank Oz’s LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS brings back fond memories of watching this as a child (although I had the theatrical version with the distinctly happier ending) and while nearly decades ( yes decades) have passed since I last saw it, I can still sing nearly word perfect at least three of the songs – the titular … Continue reading
Seems like only yesterday I was thinking about the film goodness I consumed in 2013, so it’s a little disconcerting that the time has come around again so quickly. 2014 has been a good year for film in my opinion. I think it has more to do that because the last year has been decidedly … Continue reading
Full of Christmas cheer and goodwill to all, I thought I’d spread a little of it to you. With the help of Fox Entertainment, I had the pleasure of attending a preview screening of BIRDMAN. I know! A review on Christmas Eve! Stop! But the excitement doesn’t end there, because after the review I will be offering a … Continue reading
Hello strangers! It’s been a while. A long long while. I’ve barely recovered from two festivals (London Film Festival and Film Africa) while working my now full-time job. But I won’t lament the self-caused exhaustion I caused myself because I have too much film goodness to talk about. I feel like I’ve hit the jackpot … Continue reading
The Grand Budapest Hotel Ah Wes Anderson. A thoroughly well turned out pleasant gentlemen who still succeeds in leaving me extremely divided about his body of work. Through the years I’ve veered as erractically as some his edit cuts from near loathing (I cannot for the life of me get behind Rushmore), to … Continue reading
My feelings towards this first offer is twofold. It is perhaps the most flashy advert to greed and consumerism, a glorious ode to the church of unregulated capitalism. It is also an example of a well made film steadfast in its commitment to it’s original source. Therein lies the problem. Scorsese is a virtuoso, and … Continue reading
I thought I was above the inevitable end-of-year-list explosion that happens on every pop culture site, blog, magazine etc. But obviously not. Also it’s fun to reflect on a year in film. I thought starting with my worst films of 2013 would create more of a buildup than starting with a climax of my best … Continue reading
I have been AWOL for a very good reason. Round my parts, ’tis the season to be a film lover. It’s the annual BFI London Film Festival. The 57th to be exact and I think I’ve broken the record for sheer amount of film seen. The majority of film gorging occurred during the block press … Continue reading
