The Nightingale (Sundance London) 3 stars☆☆☆☆☆

5th August 2019 by Sarah Leave a Comment

It’s an easy get-out, to anoint a movie “a hard watch”, but Jennifer Kent’s period revenge thriller The Nightingale is just that. I went in with no other information beyond this being a follow up to The Babadook, a horror film about a menaced, powerless child but really about loneliness and grief. This is, in… The Nightingale (Sundance London) Read More

The Farewell (Sundance London) 5 stars☆☆☆☆☆

21st July 2019 by Sarah Leave a Comment

The Farewell is writer-director Lulu Wang’s second feature, and it’s a funny, bracing, tender and profoundly moving film. “Sexy but poor” is how Billi (Awkwafina) describes herself half-jokingly to her mother, visiting her parents while trying to avoid the apartment she always owes rent on. Her parents also live in New York, the whole family… The Farewell (Sundance London) Read More

Apollo 11 (Sundance London) 5 stars☆☆☆☆☆

30th June 2019 by Sarah Leave a Comment

The words that sum up Apollo 11 hark back to magic – yes, this paen to science (technology, maths, physics) and humanity (bravery, a compulsion to explore, even teamwork) is spellbinding, entrancing, mesmerising. An extraordinary event deserves an extraordinary movie documenting it, and Apollo 11 is certainly that. In a modern era where there are few… Apollo 11 (Sundance London) Read More

The Last Tree (Sundance London) 4 stars☆☆☆☆☆

7th June 2019 by Sarah 1 Comment

Shola Amoo’s second feature is an accomplished and absorbing film, following the teenage Femi as he struggles to create his own identity and sense of place from disparate memories, experiences and expectations. Little confusions, which for teenagers can still loom large, are woven into far more serious choices. There’s a sweet scene when Femi, walking along… The Last Tree (Sundance London) Read More

Animals (Sundance London) 3.5 stars☆☆☆☆☆

4th June 2019 by Sarah Leave a Comment

It’s rare to find a film that combines such huge respect for the gorgeousness and grubbiness of female friendship with such dizzying disrespect for the human liver. They’re connected in this film of course, though I still feel drained just thinking about the sheer quantities of white wine consumed by best friends Laura and Tyler… Animals (Sundance London) Read More

Late Night (Sundance London) 3 stars☆☆☆☆☆

1st June 2019 by Sarah Leave a Comment

When late night chat show host Katherine Newbury is told she’s being replaced, she finally has to face her writers’ room. Literally, as most of the men in there have never even seen her in the flesh before. Those men are all white, and privileged, though not as hirsute as I was expecting. They’re lazy,… Late Night (Sundance London) Read More

Corporate Animals (Sundance London) 3 stars☆☆☆☆☆

31st May 2019 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Imagine The Descent crossed with The Office, but nastier. That’s Corporate Animals. It’s uneven, but often brutally hilarious, as horrible boss Lucy (Demi Moore) forces her key employees into a team-building exercise exploring caves in New Mexico. Always wanting to push her employees on to greatness, even if they don’t want to go, Lucy declines… Corporate Animals (Sundance London) Read More
