Portrait of a Lady on Fire 2019
Céline Sciamma can do no wrong. This film is an absolute masterpiece. Perfectly directed and beautifully scripted.

Tenet 2020
I can confirm that upon a second viewing, ‘Tenet’, becomes *slightly* more enjoyable. No, the muffled dialogue doesn’t miraculously become understandable, and no, the sentences you do understand don’t feel any less like someone reading the instruction manual for a machine you couldn’t care less about, but, small intricacies and details you missed the first time are there in front of you, and the complex narrative you couldn’t comprehend the first time is there, ripe for the picking.
Great performances…

Proxima 2019
It had been so long since my last cinema outing, so when cinemas across England announced their return, naturally I bought the first ticket, for the first new film, on the first day. And, just like that, 170 days since my last visit I was sat in the best seat watching the biggest screen.

Pitt’s ubiquitous performance is right up there with not only the best displayed this year, but, for me, it might just be his best performance from his entire filmography.
