Nightmare Alley 2021
Excruciatingly slow paced noir from Del Toro that somehow kind of comes together in the end.

The true standout achievement here is Tamara Deverell’s production design work which is just marvelous.

1917 2019
1917 is a breathtaking achievement only possible with a supremely talented director. Sam Mendes' audacious WWI epic seamlessly combines Deakins' flawless cinematography, Newman's haunting score & a knockout George McKay, proving 1917 is filmmaking at its utmost best.
The last 30 minutes alone is absolute BRILLIANT filmmaking. On every level. Incredibly immersive sound design, brilliant camera work & movement from Roger Deakins, and Mendes' steering the entire endeavour stunningly.

Phoenix evokes a sense of tragic, melancholic beauty…

Baumbach's script eloquently captures the showdowns, the fight for individuality in these characters, and the unexpected dark comedy that brings the entire endeavour full circle. Every single actor involved is outstanding, with compelling acting from the supporting cast, which includes a feisty Laura Dern to a headstrong Alan Alda. But this…Translated from by
