The Substance – Film Review

October 10, 2024yggdrasille
I can’t say I’m a huge fan of body horror, but I really loved this brash, bold and obscene fable that feels like a work of singular vision despite easily spotted influences.

Late Night with the Devil – Film Review

April 23, 2024June 7, 2024yggdrasille
A slow-burn found-footage horror flick that offers show business satire as well as a refreshing new spin on demonic possession.

Bob Marley: One Love – Film Review

February 20, 2024June 7, 2024yggdrasille
An enjoyable if somewhat disjointed biopic of the Jamaican icon, elevated by the great performances and fantastic music.

Shayda – Film Review

January 9, 2024June 7, 2024yggdrasille
Based on real-life experiences, this tender and harrowing movie is an impressive and deeply felt debut telling the story of an Iranian mother and her daughter trying to rebuild their lives in Australia.

The Killer – Film Review

November 21, 2023June 7, 2024yggdrasille
I enjoyed David Fincher’s thriller about a deadly perfectionist for what it is, a stylish, sleek, superbly directed and acted procedural that doesn’t have a lot going on beneath the surface… and that’s ok.

In the Mood for Love – Film Review

October 5, 2023June 7, 2024yggdrasille
After a long break, I was back at the Astor Theatre for this sumptuous, melancholy romantic drama about unconsummated love in the 1960s Hong Kong.

Aftersun – Film Review

September 12, 2023June 7, 2024yggdrasille
A deceptively simple, gentle and ultimately heart-wrenching story about father and daughter, brimming with hidden darkness and questions that memories cannot answer.

Burning – Film Review

August 3, 2023June 7, 2024yggdrasille
“Slow and quiet thriller” may sound like a strange way to describe this haunting, cryptic Korean movie, but it feels apt. Inspired by Haruki Murakami’s short story, it’s built on ambiguity and unease, and is immensely rewarding in the end.
