Aftersun
Review by Nina Alberti While most of its audience will likely be lured to the cinema by the prospect of seeing Paul Mescal’s butt, Aftersun (Charlotte Wells, 2022) has so much more to offer than just its exquisite cast. The Scottish director’s debut feature is a sun drenched coming-of-age story, as well as an intimateContinue reading “Aftersun”

Well-founded concerns that Disney would go down the route of CGI renderings or tasteless recasting took hold. It’s a great relief thatContinue reading “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever”
Barbarian
Review by Sarah Murnane Barbarian (Zach Cregger, 2022) is the latest film in the yearly round of horror movies to come out around Halloween.
