Stardust 2020
I just...it was infuriatingly bad. It gets half a star 'cause Johnny Flynn and Marc Maron put in good performances despite it all
I have no idea who this movie is for, if you're a Bowie fan you'll probably be angry at the complete lack of Bowie songs ('cause the estate wouldn't grant them access), if you don't know anything about Bowie, you'll come out not knowing a whole lot more than you did at the start.

VIFF #15
A beautiful debut from Caroline Monnet, with great performances from the whole cast, especially Devry Jacobs, as Mani. As well as stunning cinematography of the cold beauty of a Canadian winter.Translated from by -
To Kill a Tiger 2022
