Behind Closed Doors covers so much ground in terms of plot and drama that could happen to gay women. But it completely fails to explore the possibility that being gay sometimes really does mean being happy. 2.6/10
This is an overall middling movie. It’s competent, polished and had enough budget to tell its story. But the story it tells isn’t anything remotely new. 5.7/10
Nyad is one of those movies that when graded on the larger scale of all movies ever, is pretty middling. But for a WLW film, it’s above average. 6.6/10
The movie manages to combine universal themes with specific, local details. Shame about that ending though. 6.0/10
Lasse Hallström is not stretching himself with Hilma. But even him phoning it in still amounts in a decent film. 6.4/10

The Last Conception is not wholly predictable. Parts of it are pretty dang out there. So, it’s got that going for it. But it’s also a pretty uneven film. 5.5/10
The Origin of Evil is a pretty great example of the fucked up rich family melodrama. 7.4/10
