Review: Grandma

Posted by: Tony Hinds  •  October 15, 2015 @ 4:07pm

Grandma is indeed a tearjerker, but one free of the overwrought sentimentality that bogs down other entries in the genre. Structured like an addictive novella, the premise is quickly established and we're on our way. At a brisk 75 minutes, there is little time for narrative hesitation.

Review: A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence

Posted by: Tony Hinds  •  September 29, 2015 @ 9:57am

The films of Roy Andersson are not for everyone, in the same manner that the films of another Anderson, Wes, are also not for all tastes. Is there a connection between these two filmmakers?
