    Emilia Pérez

    ★★½

    I went into Emilia Pérez with an open mind, but it felt like it was trying to do too much at once. The film juggles gender, identity, and crime, but in the end, none of these themes feel fully developed. If Audiard had focused on one with more depth, the story might have been more compelling.

    What I struggled with most was the film’s treatment of Emilia as a character. While her journey is complex, I found it difficult to empathise…

    A Complete Unknown

    ★★★

    A Complete Unknown is the only way a Bob Dylan biopic could ever exist- intentionally elusive and just out of reach. Timothée Chalamet embodies Dylan with effortless precision. The fact that he performs the songs himself is all the more impressive given his lack of a professional music background.

    The film refuses to impose clarity on a person who has spent a lifetime resisting definition; he has never been about offering answers, only evoking feelings. The answer, after all, is blowin’ in the wind.
