The film is an artistic exploration of people at the fringes of a subculture. It crafts that subculture as something capable of great beauty under the direction of Monika Treut and her colour-saturated, Dutch angle-loving camera. 7.3/10

Prom Dates is like if Booksmart was designed by a Disney+ committee. That’s all you need to know, really. 5.5/10

There are arguments or explorations of how this movie does representation, particularly of its sapphic characters. Such a topic would be a great one for me and my website to cover. Too bad I don’t feel strongly enough about this movie to do that. 4.6/10

Scrubbers is an excellent piece of feminist filmmaking and a welcome alternative to women in prison exploitation. Its understanding and depiction of humanity is something that looks so easy under the eye of director and co-writer Mai Zetterling. 8.2/10

Instead of going for big moments, The Accident presents a subtler, more real look at some nice, boring lesbians, a messy pair of heterosexuals and a disaffected teen who could really use some kindness. 5.7/10

This is the kind of story that is sometimes necessary to write to “get it out of your system” early in a creative career. It’s also the kind of story that’s going to have a lot more meaning for the writer than for any given audience. 2.2/10

Gondola not only celebrates the medium of film with its beautiful visuals but also gives me one of the cutest romances I’ve seen in quite some time. And it accomplishes both these things with nearly zero dialogue. 7.1/10
