Sun Ra: A Joyful Noise (1981) 100% EDIT “Open ears will wallow in his amniotic funk - even those shocking solos - and rock fans will cower at his invention.” – Time Out Apr 6, 2020 Full Review The Times of Harvey Milk (1984) 96% EDIT “Charismatic and outspoken, Milk was headed for the job of mayor, and deserves a place in the pantheon of specifically American radicalism.” – Time Out Jun 24, 2006 Full Review Testament (1983) 89% EDIT “A gentle, loving, noble, angry and heartrending film.” – Time Out Jun 24, 2006 Full Review Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars (1973) 73% EDIT “While the likes of 'Oh You Pretty Things' and 'All the Young Dudes' still raise a smile, the presiding image is of those flesh-crawling glam-rock costumes and stage antics. Go for the music, or not at all.” – Time Out Jun 24, 2006 Full Review Silkwood (1983) 77% EDIT “Silkwood's "ordinariness" protects her from being labelled a wild-eyed Trot, but that should not be allowed to obscure her courage or the whitewash ladled onto her story after her death.” – Time Out Feb 9, 2006 Full Review Empire of the Sun (1987) 75% EDIT “Spielberg includes a strand of populist heroism, yet even this fails to dent the awful message. And the budget makes itself seen, as does Bale's superlative Jim.” – Time Out Jan 26, 2006 Full Review Where the Buffalo Roam (1980) 19% EDIT “Laughs aplenty for people who use drugs as a pose, but most will be left wondering if half a pint of Bass doesn't qualify as a revolutionary action.” – Time Out Jan 26, 2006 Full Review Before Stonewall (1984) 94% EDIT “Its politics are sensible, the life stories touching, warm and funny, and the archive stuff camper than Butlin's empire.” – Time Out Jan 26, 2006 Full Review
