Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles (1975)
Across a three-day period, a widow takes care of her son and attends to all kinds of “female duties”, but, very gradually, and despite the static camera, things start to fall apart. Perhaps I’m wrong, but I have the impression that responses to this film largely see it as being about the tedium and ...

The Wonder (2022)
A little reminiscent of Manoel de Oliveira’s Benilde or the Virgin Mother (1975), including the deliberate artificiality, but here, the psychotherapeutic explanations, the fashionable revelations of abuse, the struggle of a no-nonsense female against the nonsense of powerful old males, and even some...

Earth (1930)
More than ninety years later, what still seems surprising is the way this combines the wish to create an ode to industrialisation with the wish to expressively convey the rhythms and cycles of nature, a celebration of the destruction of borders with a love of locality, a dream of ascending to the hi...

Blonde (2022)
Dominik throws everything he can think of at the screen, but in a way that almost seems desperate to impress, as if he had inklings that he had gotten himself caught up in a wrongheaded idea but had no choice but to plow on regardless. Characterisation is weak, and far too much of the dialogue comes...

The Golden Coach (1953)
In the heart of a vivacious actress, love struggles to awake. She seems to be looking for the Goldilocks level of violently jealous man – not too much, not too little – only to eventually rediscover, gloriously and yet with a little melancholy, if not tragedy, that her true path consists in that inf...
