Love in the Big City (2024) ☆☆☆(3/4): Two Roommates in the city
South Korean film “Love in the Big City” looks and feels typical at first. Yes, the unlikely friendship between a gay man and a heterosexual woman is not exactly an unconventional story material these days, but the movie has its … Continue reading

Drive-Away Dolls (2024) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A whimsical crime comedy from Ethan Coen
In my inconsequential opinion, Joel and Ethan Coen have often swung back and forth between two extreme ends during last several decades. On one end, they can give us extremely wacky comedy films such as “Raising Arizona” (1987), “The Hudsucker … Continue reading
Tchaikovsky’s Wife (2022) ☆☆(2/4): The Passion of Tchaikovsky’s Wife
They say misery loves company, but, after watching Kirill Serebrennikov’s “Tchaikovsky’s Wife”, I am wondering whether Russians love misery more than it wants. Here is a relentlessly grim, solemn, and miserable film which does not have much sense of human … Continue reading

Passages (2023) ☆☆☆(3/4): You will be sorry for them – but not him
Ira Sachs’ latest film “Passages” will definitely make you wince a lot for its utterly unlikable hero – and how much the two other main characters around him struggle with his toxic influence in one way or another. Although you … Continue reading
Green Night (2023) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Her manic pixie girl
“Green Night” is a little murky noir film which works best whenever it focuses on the wild and compelling relationship between its two very different main characters. Although I found myself quite frustrated with several vague aspects of its plot, … Continue reading
Benediction (2021) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): The final film by Terence Davies

Cassandro (2023) ☆☆☆(3/4): Meet Cassandro
“Cassandro”, which was released on Amazon Prime in last week, is less flamboyant while also being more earnest than expected. Based on the real-life story of a gay American-born Mexican luchador (professional wrestler), the movie sensitively focuses on its characters … Continue reading
