  Great concept, great script but I was just not emotionally invested in a single thing. They could all die? Meh

  On Falling 2024

  ★★★★½ Watched 18 Mar 2025

  I don't throw around the word 'triggering' lightly, but it's the only way I can describe the memories and emotions triggered by this film.

  It shows a reality so accurate & relatable to a whole class of immigrant workers that's invisible to most people. A life so devastatingly mundane in a system designed to offer no escape. Honestly, fuck capitalism & fuck xenophobia.

  On Becoming a Guinea Fowl 2024

  ★★★★★ Watched 12 Dec 2024

  Surreal, heartbreaking and funny. Rungano Nyoni truly understands the power of leaving things unsaid.

  Christmas at the Ranch 2021

  ★★½ Watched 06 Dec 2024

  'You can't take our Christmas spirit'
  I was very torn between 2 and 5 stars. This movie has everything to make it perfectly terrible. Hot cowgirls, lesbians talking to themselves, jarring ADR, the dramatic soundtrack and gentle gaslighting all come together to bring us Christmas cheer.
