  The Kid 1921

  ★★★★★ Rewatched by Darrell Tuffs 23 Feb 2020

  It makes you laugh, it makes you cry, it makes you sad, it makes you smile; this is cinema.

  Juha 1999

  ★★★★ Rewatched by Darrell Tuffs 28 Apr 2017

  In preparation for Kaurismäki's The Other Side of Hope... a very simple film with a very basic narrative, yet a wonder exercise in tone and cinematic language.

  Our Daily Bread 2005

  ★★★ Watched by Darrell Tuffs 30 Oct 2015

  Looking for a Halloween film? How about watching in detail the grotesque way we get our meat; that's pretty horrific and haunting, plus more real and raw than any actor in zombie costume. A deeply harrowing film that's hard to watch, but one that holds within it some knuckle biting truths about humanity.

  Knight of Cups 2015

  ★★ Watched by Darrell Tuffs 16 Jan 2016

  Like watching a two hour trailer for a really great film, only to find out the trailer is the film. "Whispering gently in voiceover like we have more substance than we actually do".
