    A Bunch of Amateurs

    ★★★★

    Beyond the bright cornfields of Oklahoma and epic stunts of Superman, A Bunch of Amateurs turns cameras on the true magic of cinema. Aglow with the flickering lights of projectors, we see a community of dreamers, who are never too old to be playful, and find solace in each others imaginations.

    ★★★★★

    Rebel Dykes is a fun and fierce documentary. We’re given a zine-y snapshot of the brazen 80s lesbian subculture of London. The patchwork account pieces together diverse and exciting stories from those who were on the scene with original animation, dynamic photos, grainy archive footage, and a punk soundtrack. Fleeting and underground ephemera is captured perfectly in this film, and is importantly preserved and made accessible for the first time. There’s so much I didn’t know, and am so glad…

    I Am Woman

    ★★

    I’m normally down for music biopics, but Helen was written so blandly, and the feminist movement was all just b-roll, and maybe I’m getting a bit bored of 70s coke-dependent music managers.
