1917 REVIEW
I don't really watch trailers, anymore, if I can help it. I find trailers can often contain plot spoilers, or ruin emotional beats by re-contextualising them in a way that more says "buy tickets for this movie" than whatever it was meant. The logical extreme for this is the trailer for Broken City, a movie which literally has the final scene in the movie a prevalent part of the trailer. Honestly, I wish more companies would adopt the Endgame style of trailers, wherein it literally shows the first 5 or 10 minutes of the movie, tops.

A Filmmaker's Review: "Albert Nobbs" (2011)
I initially didn't think too much of this film when it first came out, I thought it was just yet another period drama. But how wrong I was... This film is a modern masterpiece of disguise and intrigue, a film of secrecy and darkness. There is something incredibly tense about this film that keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout even the every day life of the manor. The tagline is spoken almost as part of the dialogue in the film when the doctor speaks to Albert and says "We are all disguised as ourselves..." that's more of a realisation moment by the audience. But let's move on to the review for now...

The 92nd Academy Awards—Thoughts, Snubs, and Predictions
A few days ago, the nominations for the 92nd Academy Awards were announced. After last year's lackluster series of events and nominees leading up to the show, many of us were probably a bit concerned that this year would be a repeat of the last.

A Filmmaker's Guide: "Hard Candy" (2005)
This thriller is possibly one of the most intense thrillers you'll ever watch that has cropped up straight out of 21st century nightmares. The 21st century nightmare in this film involves what happens when a little girl speaks online to an older man and I can honestly say that if you were a little girl (a minor) online in the first decade of the 21st century you probably experienced you fair share of older men wanting to chat/meet up with you. Saying "no" for some girls can be difficult I know, but seriously it wasn't very difficult for me because as soon as I told them my mom was a cop shit turned. But in some cases, the girl can be terrified and seriously, I think that hitting on minors is a problem for a lot of men from the top ranks to the bottom jobs - I really don't know what it is with men and either little girls or women behaving like little girls. It kind of grosses me out.

A Filmmaker's Review: "The Machinist" (2004)
This film is a god damn masterpiece and now, I have probably seen it about four or five times. Every single time you watch it, you see something you did not pick up before and every time you see the film the meaning of it gets closer and closer until you see something else and that changes the whole meaning entirely and you're back at square one. It's a film that constantly changes meaning.

Is Morbius, the Living Vampire in the MCU(Marvel Cinematic Universe)?
It's finally here! The trailer for the Morbius movie! Prior to the trailer, we knew that Sony was creating their own Marvel Cinematic Universe, but solely focusing on Spider-Man villains in the live action films. They were trying to create a Sinister Six Movie.

A Filmmaker's Review: "The Shakespeare Enigma" (2011)
So let's start with a bit of a history. I am a huge Shakespeare fan. I've read all the plays, I went to see a ton of them in the theatre and I've even got a ton of Shakespeare merchandise including bags, posters, etc. I have been a Shakespeare super-fan for well over ten years now and this is the very first time I have come across such an incriminating film. Unfortunately enough for myself I am also a huge Christopher Marlowe fan, owning the same amount of merchandise, having read and seen all the plays performed live and even having studied Dr. Faustus for nearly every year of my university life because it is so damn good. Marlowe and Shakespeare may have been around at the same time, they may have had a similar (ish) writing style and they may have had a similar target audience. But to suggest that they are the same person is a theory tried, tested and failed long before this film even came about in 2011.
