What Is Democracy? (2018) 96% EDIT “[It] doesn't deliver an answer to its titular question or a remedy for our bleak times in the US. What the film offers instead is a peripatetic and sweeping glance at a centuries-old problem through a chorus of shrewd assessments.” – Artforum Jan 31, 2019 Full Review Crime + Punishment (2018) 93% EDIT “The unsurprising, cruel fact that drives the film is that despite the ban on quota-based policing in 2010, the practice goes on under different names.” – Artforum Sep 6, 2018 Full Review Louise Bourgeois: The Spider, the Mistress and the Tangerine (2008) 88% EDIT “Louise Bourgeois: The Spider, the Mistress, and the Tangerine tenderly untangles the personal and public lives of the esteemed artist, and clocks in at just over an hour and a half -- as if to offer a minute for each of her ninety-six years.” – Artforum Sep 14, 2016 Full Review Beeswax (2009) 77% EDIT “It should make Chantal Akerman, his Harvard film adviser, quite proud. All possible influences aside however, Bujalski has struck gold through a meeting of effort and ease, by doing it all his way.” – Artforum Sep 14, 2016 Full Review Our City Dreams (2008) 73% EDIT “Clemente's film compellingly depicts the underlying, rather undreamy mores that propelled these individual careers in the bright lights of the big city -- veracity, dedication, and commitment, to name a few.” – Artforum Sep 14, 2016 Full Review The Seasons in Quincy: Four Portraits of John Berger (2016) 71% EDIT “If The Seasons in Quincy fails to give us Berger the myth, which we want, then through subtle details you can glean something here about Berger the man, things you never knew about the depths of his intelligence.” – Artforum Aug 31, 2016 Full Review
