    It's nothing short of a miracle that this incredible piece of work was made in secret. Not only is it a scathing critique of the Iranian theocracy, but this serves as a stark warning against people's complicity and worship of corrupt political institutions. Watch this film, it's not getting nearly as much coverage as it should.

    Ridley Scott's best looking film, one of the best looking films ever, you could walk towards your screen and step into the sleazy hellscape of 2019 Los Angeles it just feels so real.

    No rating for this. The film plays with some interesting themes, particularly the presence of uptight Victorian British influence within the harsh untamed Australian landscape which is certainly unique to Aussie cinema.

    The pacing is glacial at times, I think Sofia Coppola has perfected this meandering, dream-like style of filmmaking with her most well known projects, but she is certainly indebted to the stylistic trappings of this film.

    Fantastic performances by Rachel Roberts and Helen Morse
