“All We Imagine As Light”
A fresh perspective on the power of connection, the complexity of relationships, and the unspoken (and unbreakable) bond between women.
“Better Man”
Yes, the main character in this biopic is depicted as an animated ape. And yes, it works.
“The Room Next Door”
Boasting strong performances and a deeply introspective script, this film about friendship, regret, and mortality is rich in thematic nuance.
“Babygirl”
Boundary-pushing cinema that is far from the thoughtful exploration of female sexual agency that it clearly longs to be.
“Shell”
Entertaining but not thought-provoking, and never fully commits to the depth its premise seems to promise.
