  The Golden Glove 2019

  This may well be a great film but I got seven minutes in and decided I couldn’t cope with any more. Maybe I'll have another go some day.

  Mekong Hotel 2012

  ★★★½ Watched 22 Mar 2025

  Gorgeously lyrical hour from the great Apichatpong Weerasethakul with bonus vampirism, underscored by the gentle guitar of Chai Bhatana.

  Under Streetlights 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 04 Nov 2024 1

  Nice Australian hip hop romance-musical. It won't fly high at awards night except maybe for song score but there’s nothing to dislike about it. Great use of the scenery in and around Alice Springs. Producer-writer-director Danielle Loy has done well and Madison Hull is a name to watch.

  Autobiografia di una Borsetta 2025

  ★★★½ Watched 21 Mar 2025

  Silly concept that deserves more than 24 minutes, maybe even its own weekly Netflix series (say what it's part of a series of commissions for Prada?), but regardless, it's good to see director Joanna Hogg in action any time.
