    ★★★★

    I definitely want to see this again, but it won't be the same without a fly walking back and forth across the projector for most of Act 2. Not distracting at all.

    If emotions were a car, this film puts a brick on the accelerator.

    Fallen Angels

    ★★★★½

    Sometimes you keep meaning to watch a film, but never do, then when you finally do, you can’t believe you waited so long; this is one of those films. There is a very real sense of pain and abstraction amongst these characters which draws us into their turmoil while forcing them apart. Coupled with such compelling visual motifs, it’s brilliant.

    ★★½

    I can’t bee-lieve I forgot how good this was, a truly bee-rilliant film, nothing can bee-t it; and it has a sting in its tail for the ending!
