An original, unforgettable, enchanted nightmare of a film that gives a much darker take on the classic fairy tale story.

“The Strange Case of Jacky Caillou”
This dark and dreamy film about a magnetic healer and the woman he tries to cure flows and winds itself into a nightmare.
“Armageddon Time”
This coming-of-age story is perfectly captured with a simple, small-scale narrative.
“The Inspection”
A highly personal film about a gay man’s experience in the Marines, most of the true story is compelling, but the narrative is overly simple and riddled with clichés.
“Triangle of Sadness”
This story of a cruise from hell is an achievement in satire that has much to say and does it well, wading through layers of stinging dialogue, sophisticated observations, and lots and lots of vomit.
“She Said”
Instead of offering new insight, the film fades into the void of forgettable procedural journalism films.
