Something Wild 1986
Effortlessly flows from farcical to thriller all the while being wonderfully human.

Bloodshot Heart 2020
An achievement, an achievement, an achievement and an achievement!
A sumptuous exploration into style and thematic interplay. The text, visuals and subtext are intertwined in a dance that trumps many other debuts of similar natures.
Bloodshot Heart simultaneously echoes exploitation and Giallo cinema of the 70s and 80s whilst being far more controlled and exact than those films ever were. Distilling these characteristics into a Australian (migrant) context, it feels like the appropriate and honourable next step in this branch of discourse.
It’s great! Find it! See it!
I’m quackers for Bloodshot Heart!

The Shawshank Redemption 1994
Do not be fooled by the title, no one is shawn or shanked in this movie.
There isn't even a sheep.
