THE SUMMER WITH CARMEN or how life doesn’t neatly fit in the three-acts structure... A bittersweet and sexy Greek gay character study, ambitious, meta but never self-indulgent, with a rich script and an impressive yet effortless direction. Excellent.

Seventeen Times Cécile Cassard 2002
17 FOIS CÉCILE CASSARD: Béatrice Dalle is fantastic as a widow navigating the limbos of grief. Christophe Honoré’s first film is clumsy at times but ambitious and unique and works best when at its most elliptical and surreal.

Megalopolis 2024
MEGALOPOLIS: one of the most baffling and creative films ever made, incoherent yet truly exhilarating. Like a Syfy channel philosophical fable mixed with ‘90s soap opera antics, Roman history and old Hollywood glamour. There’s never been anything like it, I adored it #Cannes2024

Triangle of Sadness 2022
TRIANGLE OF SADNESS: an obvious, overlong satire with a wonky script. You can’t deny the chaotic energy of its outrageous second act and its explosion of bodily fluids but even that doesn’t really do anything unexpected #Cannes2022
