“#A Slow, Wordless March Towards Loneliness – /Film” Misery may love company, but loneliness craves it. Yearns for it. Counts down the minutes waiting for company to arrive until life is but a hollow shell, an endless repetition of mindless tasks, wasting away waiting for something that may never come. And then when that company…
“#A Uniquely Sinister Experience – /Film” Science and religion unite in an unconditional manner with writer/director Devereux Milburn’s Honeydew. Making its world premiere at Nightstream Festival, Honeydew is as auditorily savory as it is visually sadistic. A blend of horror sub-genres, Milburn proves that he has a talent (and an appetite) for serving audiences a…
“#Aubrey Plaza Stuns in This Horror Film – /Film” Don’t be alarmed if you find yourself wondering halfway through Lawrence Michael Levine’s Black Bear just what the hell is going on.

“#‘Rebecca’ Review: Ben Wheatley’s Slick Update on the Gothic Romance Fails to Thrill” It’s never a good idea to remake Hitchcock, even though several have tried.

![#‘French Exit’ Review: The Discreet Smarm of the Bourgeoisie [NYFF]](https://d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net/wp/wp-content/images/French-Exit-Review.jpg "#‘French Exit’ Review: The Discreet Smarm of the Bourgeoisie [NYFF]")
“#‘French Exit’ Review: The Discreet Smarm of the Bourgeoisie [NYFF]” Azazel Jacobs’ previous film, The Lovers, establishes its overarching and consistent tone from the time the opening studio logo appears. A self-consciously melodramatic piece of score cues the audience to recognize Jacobs’ perspective. He humorously heightens the stakes for an otherwise mundane story of aging…
“#A Gentle Hong Sang-soo Hangout – /Film” A woman spends a couple days catching up with friends over coffee and home-cooked pasta.
