Heavenly Creatures (1994) 95% EDIT “Heavenly Creatures reduces to one big overproduced, missed opportunity. ” – Bay Area Reporter May 16, 2023 Full Review Go Fish (1994) 76% EDIT “Go Fish is a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful film. If you don't believe me, throw this paper down and go see for yourself.” – Bay Area Reporter Aug 25, 2021 Full Review The Lighthouse Keepers (1929) EDIT “I'd recommend seeing anything Constance Talmadge is in because she's totally nuts, I mean she's a subtle comic genius who transcends gender, as geniuses will.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 17, 2020 Full Review The Man Who Laughs (1928) 100% EDIT “...instantly breathtaking...” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 17, 2020 Full Review Zero Days (2016) 90% EDIT “Well-researched, meticulously edited, densely informative, Zero Days is utterly riveting as visual display and thoroughly mind-boggling as techno-military history.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 10, 2020 Full Review Ixcanul (2015) 98% EDIT “The young woman, whose coming-of-age story this is, responds limply to every force she comes in contact with.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 10, 2020 Full Review Author: The JT LeRoy Story (2016) 77% EDIT “This story is so trippy it could use some clarity.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 9, 2020 Full Review Racing to Zero: In Pursuit of Zero Waste (2014) EDIT “A thrilling new documentary.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 9, 2020 Full Review The Battle of Algiers (1966) 99% EDIT “A stirring reminder that all creatures crave liberty, administered by themselves.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 9, 2020 Full Review We Are X (2016) 83% EDIT “Fascinating for Japanophiles.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 9, 2020 Full Review National Bird (2016) 100% EDIT “Director Sonia Kennebeck has made a masterpiece.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 9, 2020 Full Review Seasons (2015) 97% EDIT “For 80 minutes we are submerged in a sort of home movie, shot to the highest professional standard, of animals living their lives.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 9, 2020 Full Review Old Stone (2016) 94% EDIT “Its linear plot proceeds step by obvious step, following an anti-hero who is alone in possessing any twinkle of subjectivity.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 9, 2020 Full Review Theo Who Lived (2016) 83% EDIT “David Schisgall has directed this film with grace and eloquence, letting Theo tell it his way, in a site-specific reenactment that is itself a bit adventurous.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 9, 2020 Full Review Videophilia (and Other Viral Syndromes) (2015) 56% EDIT “At an hour and 50 minutes, Videofilia winds up looking like a self-indulgent exercise in editing across visual platforms that ultimately merge in a sloppy psychedelic soup of porn-fueled machismo undercutting any claim to originality.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 9, 2020 Full Review Saving Banksy (2017) 87% EDIT “Director Colin M. Day, while dutifully illustrating his subject, fails to have a point of view.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 9, 2020 Full Review The Lure (2015) 89% EDIT “The concept is delightful, and the realization a first-rate labor of love, talent, and artistic skill, untrammelled by big budget.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Frantz (2016) 91% EDIT “These mood swings make this costume drama very much of the moment.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 8, 2020 Full Review I, Olga Hepnarová (2016) 73% EDIT “We are held at arm's length, in a literal-minded rendering of alienation that remains tentative and cautious where its anti-heroine was over-the-top monstrous.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Cézanne and I (2016) 52% EDIT “Alas, Paul Cezanne and his friend Emile Zola, the titular "Me," are not so well-served by director Daniele Thompson.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Finding Oscar (2016) 82% EDIT “Producer-director Ryan Suffern threw his Finding Oscar into the Hollywood mangle with predictable results.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 8, 2020 Full Review A Quiet Passion (2016) 92% EDIT “To say A Quiet Passion lasts two hours is to give the reader no clue as to the mind-numbing parade of disconnected scenes that stretches from school years through indistinguishable family sit-downs and walk-abouts and posings.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Prevenge (2016) 92% EDIT “[Alice Lowe's] first feature as a director is brilliant in a Jennifer Saunders way, mordant, skillful, outrageous, and true.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Angkor Awakens: A Portrait of Cambodia (2016) 93% EDIT “The movie is not a disinterested or critical history, but a backgrounder for investors and other global mercenaries.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Desierto - Border Sniper (2015) 64% EDIT “There's no story here, only a one-sided shoot-em-up as callous as a video game. Hollywood has always been cynical, but Desierto distinguishes itself by its indifference to the dilemma it depicts.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 8, 2020 Full Review
