Denis Villeneuve: The sci-fi director of the 21st Century
here is a scale to Denis Villeneuve's Dune that borders on the biblical. Monolithic spaceships hang like moons in the heavens. Worms the size of skyscrapers swim like sharks through the desert. Extreme wide shots frame the barren planet of Arrakis as a vast unknowable ocean of sand, its dunes fluttering in the wind like waves. And yet it is not only size that makes Dune one of the most striking science-fiction films of recent years. It is how it marries that grandeur with slow, atmospheric and considered filmmaking – where shots live long, and scenes breathe freely.

How The Velvet Underground film reclaims the past
There's a brief moment in Todd Haynes' new documentary The Velvet Underground where a handheld 16mm camera swings woozily around a downtown New York hangout of the mid-1960s. The band themselves, black-clad and ineffably cool, bang away at a rendition of their song Heroin while a swirling wall of psychedelic lights are projected over them, rendering them half-invisible.

How Ichi the Killer brought ultra-violence to the mainstream
In November 2001, one of the most violent and notorious films to emerge from Japan premiered in the UK, at the London Film Festival. Later described by Empire magazine as "a masterpiece of extreme cinema, crammed full of images that push back the boundaries of what's possible – and allowable – on screen", it would be duly chopped into shreds by censors in the UK and further afield, and banned outright in several countries around the world.

Spencer and the ever-transfixing mystery of Princess Diana Share using Email Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
"A fable from a true tragedy," reads a title card in the dawning moments of Pablo Larraín's Spencer (2021): an early signpost, perhaps, of the fantastical twists and turns to come. This may ostensibly be a film about Lady Diana, Princess of Wales, née Spencer, but it is not, by any measure of conventional wisdom, the sort of period biopic generally en vogue in Hollywood cinema.

Amsterdam
AMC’s movie pass has really allowed me to see every movie I want to see, kinda want to see, and looks moderately interesting. So in addition to Smile we also went to see Amsterdam. Now I will go see anything that Margot Robbie is in, she is a phenomenal actress and anything she is in is good. Normally with an A list cast you get mediocre movies so the cast of Amsterdam didn’t do any favors in inspiring the general public to see the movie. We as movie going fans also need to stop using rotten tomatoes as a metric for whether or not a film is good. Because, as a rule, the general public is a garbage metric for the quality of anything. Media literacy is dead as is objective analysis. So audience scores really mean nothing. That said, the reality of this movie is that it was good. Nothing spectacular but it was good.

Smile
As a fan of scary movies I believe they can be a perfect vehicle to tackle real world issues, and bring to life societies deepest fears. That said, I also think that they are extremely delicate and easy to screw up. There is an entire franchise built off of the bad and overused horror movie tropes. Smile was something that intrigued and creeped me out from the beginning. The marketing for this film was very well done leaving audiences with an unsettled feeling that only encouraged horror fans to go see it. Having now seen the movie I can say that the trailer was better.

Belfast: The troubled city filmmakers love
orthern Ireland – and its capital Belfast – has long provided filmmakers with rich material. Shining a light on the region's political history are many powerful films about the Troubles – the sectarian conflict between mostly Protestant unionists (loyalists) who wished to remain part of the UK, and mostly Roman Catholic nationalists (republicans) who wanted Northern Ireland to become part of the Republic of Ireland.

Hedwig and the Angry Inch: A love story that broke taboos
Like watching the Moon landing or the moment they locked eyes with the person they love, people remember where they were the first time they saw Hedwig and the Angry Inch. The queer punk-rock musical about Plato, the Berlin Wall, love, gender, fame and self-acceptance started first as a stage show before becoming a much-loved cult film with a fervent fandom of "Hedheads" that unwaveringly adore it. Twenty years since the movie was released and 27 since John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask first debuted the character at New York nightclub Squeeze Box, Hedwig has been a constant presence, being screened and performed all over the world.
