The Girl with the Needle 2024
A descent into the sordidness of a life seemingly destined for an ever-deepening darkness. The black-and-white cinematography doesn’t soften the brutality–it amplifies it, refusing to embellish or romanticise.

Elliot constructs an endless sequence of misfortunes—loss, abandonment, addiction, isolation—but rather than weaving these into a meaningful arc, the film abruptly pivots to a simplistic resolution. After immersing us in relentless misery, its ultimate message amounts to little more than just let go and move on. Optimism in storytelling is no bad thing, but when so much time has…
