If HippFest has a problem, it’s a fairly benign one — how to continue the very popular Laurel & Hardy screenings, since Stan and Ollie made relatively few silents. Happily, there are multiple solutions available — repeating films from earlier years, since these are among the most rewatchable movies ever made, and you can show […]

Yesterday Dana, the kids, and I went to the theater to watch The AI Doc: Or How I Became An Apocaloptimist, the well-reviewed new documentary about whether AGI will destroy the world. This was surely the weirdest family movie night we’ve ever done. Firstly, because I personally know probably half of the many people interviewed […]

“All the women around here are perfect sex-kitten bimbos.” I read the book so now I’m watching the film adaptations of it. This one stars Nicole Kidman and Matthew Broderick. It’s a much jauntier affair than the book. It’s quite a funny n...

🍿 21 Jump Street (2012) was fun, but its main effect was to make me want to rewatch Hot Fuzz.

Joanna, a photographer, moves to a new town with her family. As she tries to befriend other women in the town she notices that they all seem unwilling to talk or socialise. They only leave the house to go to the supermarket and are obsessed with housework. At not even 150 pages this is a short sharp hit of a thriller. It’s incredible what Levin achieves in this time - a feminist parable that explores the role of women in society ...

THE MOMENT is Charli xcx’s brat summer mockumentary, directed by Aidan Zamiri. I was sat in the denim reupholstered seats at Rich Mix with a large glass of red wine in my hand. I watched girls with city bags and slickback buns traipse in around me. I thought about how this was all very meme account starter pack. Then the film started and I was blasted with acid green, cyan blue titles. Charli xcx in black and white, sliding round on a transparent floor. ‘It feels like my eyes are getting jet...

There comes a time in a young pig’s life when human eyes notice his increasing dimensions and decide enough is enough – this porker is ready for the pot. So it is with the young pig featured in Amen, a graduate thesis film by students at École des Nouvelles Images.  Although he almost gets the chop, his ingenuity – not to mention a somewhat revelatory experience in the monastery’s church – will save him and his friends from sizzling.  Or will it? You had better watch the animated short below ...

I love how stupid Peacock's House of Villains is, a mix of performance and connection, mockery and mock importance that works so well.

by Nathaniel R Elle Fanning and Michelle Pfeiffer in the forthcoming series MARGOT'S GOT MONEY TROUBLE Let's gently segueway now to a new year in film. When Cláudio reminded us that  Timothée Chalamet has high profile projects coming up in the wake of two consecutive years of 'close-but-no-cigar' Best Actor runs, it got me to thinking about what's next for each of this year's nominees. We're skipping anything we already covered in the  first 2026 previews we did (Dune Part Three, Digger, Th...

This week I’ve watched my first 2026 movies of the year (which is obvious, now that I think of it; […]

There are tons of books about filmmaking and filmmakers, but I have a particular appreciation for books written about just one specific movie. These microhistories (a genre I love) go deep on their film’s influences, development, production, and extended cultural relevance, and through that can tell us a lot about the power of cinema beyond […]
