  A Real Pain 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 02 Feb 2025

  A small movie in a good way. It takes the structure of the Steve Coogan 'Trip' series and adds on a poignant rumination on what it means to observe pain and whether there's any hope of lessening it.

  ★★★★ Watched 28 Jan 2025

  Not a horror movie exactly but definitely a ghost story, Birth is an amazingly thoughtful, measured film and cements for me Glazer as a director who is unlike anyone else working.
