The Great Buster: A Celebration (2018) 94% EDIT “Peter Bogdanovich's new documentary about Buster Keaton is a welcome diversion, even if it offers few fresh insights into the artist or the man.” – Film Journal International Oct 4, 2018 Full Review Rodents of Unusual Size (2017) 98% EDIT “Brings a light touch to a complex problem.” – Film Journal International Sep 13, 2018 Full Review Museo (2018) 87% EDIT “A half-assed revolutionary's big museum score goes south in this quirky, artfully composed comedic heist.” – Film Journal International Sep 13, 2018 Full Review The Storm Within (1949) 100% EDIT “Les Parents Terribles is refreshingly off-form yet still innovative.” – Film Journal International May 24, 2018 Full Review The Great Silence (1968) 100% EDIT “Even 50 years later, The Great Silence stands majestically as both a blistering comment about its era and a creatively revisionist genre piece.” – Film Journal International Mar 29, 2018 Full Review Mohawk (2017) 86% EDIT “Historical war drama, horror and action-adventure mix to uneven results.” – Film Journal International Mar 1, 2018 Full Review The Chronicle of Anna Magdalena Bach (1968) 100% EDIT “Revival of this radically minimalist 1968 biopic should pique wider interest in the films of Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet.” – Film Journal International Mar 1, 2018 Full Review The Chamber (2016) 31% EDIT “Though the ingredients are present for a suspenseful little sleeper, The Chamber will simply put you to sleep.” – Film Journal International Feb 22, 2018 Full Review 24 Frames (2017) 92% EDIT “Abbas Kiarostami's final project is a pensive, moody experiment-a challenge to one's patience but an elegiac "last word" (and picture) from a unique and significant filmmaker.” – Film Journal International Jan 31, 2018 Full Review Lover for a Day (2017) 82% EDIT “Lover for a Day offers splendid visuals but little else.” – Film Journal International Jan 10, 2018 Full Review The Green Fog (2017) 96% EDIT “Homage to Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo and the city of San Francisco is at turns amusing, cryptic, moving and profound.” – Film Journal International Jan 3, 2018 Full Review The 19th Annual Animation Show of Shows (2017) 100% EDIT “The 19th Annual Animation Show of Shows is a tough call for those seeking consistency. But there are certainly enough enticing shorts within the package to make the weaker portions acceptable to overlook.” – Film Journal International Dec 28, 2017 Full Review Liberation Day (2016) 67% EDIT “If you like weirdness for weirdness's sake, you will appreciate all these colorful, unlikely efforts to exhibit East meeting West.” – Film Journal International Oct 18, 2017 Full Review 78/52 (2017) 88% EDIT “Documentary about one of cinema's most infamous scenes gets a razor-sharp, if not entirely thorough, examination.” – Film Journal International Oct 12, 2017 Full Review Time to Die (1965) 100% EDIT “There are more virtues than debits to Time to Die, and Western fans should be relatively satisfied.” – Film Journal International Sep 13, 2017 Full Review Ex Libris: The New York Public Library (2017) 97% EDIT “Frederick Wiseman's 43rd film is as complex and fascinating as his first, released five decades ago.” – Film Journal International Sep 12, 2017 Full Review The Challenge (2016) 79% EDIT “Thanks to an opaque narrative and slow pacing, The Challenge will test your own endurance, but a cult following seems likely.” – Film Journal International Sep 7, 2017 Full Review The Boom (1963) 100% EDIT “This ostensible farce might be a surprise, but the tragic undercurrent that pervades the storyline fits well into [De Sica]'s longstanding left-wing sociopolitical concerns.” – Film Journal International Jun 14, 2017 Full Review Elián (2017) 100% EDIT “Another 1990s media spectacle gets a long-overdue autopsy in this slick and riveting documentary.” – Film Journal International May 11, 2017 Full Review Leon Morin, Priest (1961) 96% EDIT “Jean-Pierre Melville's quietly affecting film-and Emmanuelle Riva's performance-deserve rediscovery.” – Film Journal International May 11, 2017 Full Review I Hate Myself :) (2013) 57% EDIT “Deceptively simple cinéma-vérité piece is hard to stomach but thought-provoking.” – Film Journal International Apr 7, 2017 Full Review Who's Crazy? (1965) 71% EDIT “A riveting oddity.” – Film Journal International Mar 9, 2017 Full Review Beat the Devil (1953) 68% EDIT “A clever if confusing spoof of the genre pictures [John] Huston had made in a more serious manner in previous years” – Film Journal International Feb 16, 2017 Full Review EDIT “Fascinating glimpse into the world of a true individualist.” – Film Journal International Jan 18, 2017 Full Review Ghostland (2016) 25% EDIT “Documentary about the "Bushmen" of Namibia gets up close and personal but never connects to its subject.” – Film Journal International Dec 13, 2016 Full Review
