  The Monkey 2025

  ★½ Watched 05 Mar 2025

  Extremely silly. Not entirely ineffective because I am now lightly frightened of being in a freak accident. Most of the deaths were too cartoonish to be truly horrific but the angry wasp death made zero sense!

  No Other Land 2024

  ★★★★★ Watched 03 Mar 2025

  Filling a well with concrete, destroying a chicken coop with barely enough time for the birds to escape, kicking kids out of class to demolish their school. Choosing to stay and live is an act of resistance under this regime, and what incredible bravery. The choice to include conversations about their work & whether it can affect change is a clever one. It asks you as a viewer, if you “watched this and you were touched by it” what will you do now?

  Conclave 2024

  ★★★★★ Watched 25 Dec 2024

  Loved the mess, loved the drama. Monologues don’t always hit in a film but I feel like they did here and pulled on interesting themes. Also the sets and costumes were molto bene.

  A Real Pain 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 09 Feb 2025

  Watched on a long haul flight and it really helped pass the time! Both lead actors are great here, but so funny to me to imagine Jesse had wanted to play Kieran’s character because he was so well suited to his own role. Funny and moving, very much enjoyed.
