The Worst Person in the World – Film Review

April 19, 2022July 8, 2022yggdrasille
I really enjoyed this peculiar, freewheeling Norwegian dark comedy-drama about a young woman battling indecisiveness as she approaches 30s, despite some problems with the writing that made it feel a tad shallow.

Amadou & Mariam @ Elisabeth Murdoch Hall

April 15, 2022July 8, 2022yggdrasille

Lantana – Film Review

April 5, 2022July 8, 2022yggdrasille
Another Australian cinema classic I always meant to watch for the last twenty years, Lantana is a moody and incisive examination of trust and fractured relationships, finely interweaving complex character drama with a police investigation.
