Short Film Review: Where Were You

January 25, 2021 Jeremie Sabourin

WHERE WERE YOU is a touching tribute to the victims of September 11th, 2001, despite being a bit long and lacking in substance.

Short Film Review: Under the Bed

January 13, 2021 Jeremie Sabourin

Kévin Mendiboure’s new short, UNDER THE BED, continues to show off the filmmaker’s visual storytelling but maybe feels a little too familiar.

Netflix Original Review: Pieces of a Woman

January 12, 2021 Jeremie Sabourin

Kornél Mondruczó’s new film, PIECES OF A WOMAN, is a beautifully distressing look at a young couple’s life in the wake of horrible tragedy.

Indie Film Review: Poor Greg Drowning

January 7, 2021 Jeremie Sabourin

POOR GREG DROWNING, the debut feature from writer/director Jeffrey Scott Collins, gets cut a bit short but is a playful and satisfying comedy.

January 5, 2021January 5, 2021 Jeremie Sabourin

WONDER WOMAN 1984 marks a huge step back for DC superheroes as an uninspired and colossal mess of a film.

Lockdown 2020 Review: Kajillionaire

December 23, 2020December 23, 2020 Jeremie Sabourin

Miranda July’s new film, KAJILLIONAIRE, is a weirdly touching story with an eccentric and magnetic lead performance from Evan Rachel Wood.

Indie Film Review: The Bloodhound

December 18, 2020 Jeremie Sabourin

Patrick Picard’s feature length debut, THE BLOODHOUND, provides very few answers as a bizarrely hypnotic film in the vein of David Lynch.

Lockdown 2020 Review: Black Bear

December 17, 2020December 18, 2020 Jeremie Sabourin

Lawrence Michael Levine’s new film, BLACK BEAR, is a simple, yet fractured, tale of human interaction, point of view, and understanding.

Indie Film Review: The Mark of the Bell Witch

December 16, 2020December 16, 2020 Jeremie Sabourin

Seth Breedlove’s new documentary, THE MARK OF THE BELL WITCH, effectively delves into Tennessean folklore but has a bit too much reenactment.
