Notes on the BFI London Film Festival
Of the 248 feature films at the festival, 114 were directed by women—perhaps the biggest year for female directors in the festival’s history!
The Pit (Kino Lorber, R)
The cover is a brilliant work of nightmare fuel. The movie itself is awful, just awful.
Astro Zombies (Kino Lorber, NR)
If you’re really (and I mean, really) into old science fiction B-movies (I’m talking deep tracks), then maybe Astro Zombies is for you.
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes’ Smarter Brother (Kino Lorber)
None other than Gene Wilder could have conceived or performed such a zany and contradictory character.
Green Day | 10.26.16
The band has have never been one to shy away from controversy, and Armstrong came at it headfirst.
Purity Ring | 10.25.16
Megan James’ melodic and soothing vocals were performed flawlessly in contrast to the often ominous electronic pop instrumentals for which the duo is famous.
Christine (The Orchard, R)
With an admirable performance by Rebecca Hall, Christine handles sensitive, tragic subject matter in a thankfully non-exploitive way.
Five for Friday | 10.28.16
When genius happens, it must be noted.
On Tour: Machine Gun Kelly
Quick verses, tricky guitar riffs, and obvious influences from people like Diddy and Black Flag.
