#TheLoveWitch is great. Superbly realised with lots of attention to detail across the production. It has a really playful tone and a strong, powerful perspective.

Already looking forward to watching Biller’s next project. #FilmCatchUp

#OutsideIn lacks any real spark. All the performances are good and it's well assembled, but it never fully engages. The characters are a little underwritten, and it's difficult to invest in their decisions and relationships - I found it quite boring unfortunately. #FilmCatchUp

AJAX!

Anna Biller’s #Viva is fascinating. Production & costume design, all by Biller, is superb (she also stars & is credited for writing, editing, producing & music). I loved her handling of tone, shifting seamlessly from comedic to deeply uncomfortable - she has a very strong vision.

Gregg Araki’s confrontational #MysteriousSkin is still a difficult watch. This is testament to the potency of Araki’s imagery, and the power of the performances. Both Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Brady Corbet do career best work in my opinion. #FilmRewatch

The latest #PetSematary is efficiently put together. The family are given just enough characterisation for us to be invested. I wish that it took more liberties with the interpretation, or opted for a more striking aesthetic. I feel this will be forgotten quickly. #Film2019
