Anaïs is an engaging portrait of a very messy woman with very messy relationships. While its writing isn’t as strong as The Worst Person in the World, the visuals and aesthetics of the film make it a more than pleasant sit. 6.7/10

I applaud Big Dreams in Little Hope. With the budget and technology available to them, they still turned out a pretty solid comedy. 5.6/10
We Will Never Belong is a huge success. Director Amelia Eloisa has constructed not just characters but a multi-sensory world. Her self-assured cinematography and focus on sensory experiences makes this film beautiful and emotional. 7.6/10

As I so often say, being gay isn’t enough. Or, not for me as an audience. You gotta be gay AND interesting. And The Competitor is only the first one. 4.2/10
Virgin Machine is a fascinating artistic snapshot of feminist and filmmaking in West Germany; a country that would cease to exist less than two years after Virgin Machine’s release. 6.4/10
With comedies, it always comes down to the simple question, “is it funny?” And Kiss Me! isn’t funny. 4.2/10
BBC TV movies are of a solid, uniform quality. Daphne is no exception. This is a good movie. But that’s as far as I’m willing to go. 6.4/10
If you need something cute to spend less than 50% of your brain power on, Touch might be the movie for you. 5.6/10
