The Ornithologist is highly diverting and seductive, a pastoral of sorts, and a secular meditation on faith and acceptance, very loosely derived from the life of St Anthony of Padua. Oct 5, 2017 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

A pleasure to watch, but audiences are unlikely to emerge from the cinema feeling like they "got" it. Feb 22, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

It's a pretentious piece of film-making too confused to make any sense out of its metaphors. It fails on every level except as a sleep aid. Dec 27, 2018 | Rating: D | Full Review…
