French Exit (2020) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Almost penniless in Paris

Driveways (2019) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): The Old Man, The Boy, His Mother and Her House
Andrew Ahn’s second feature film “Driveways” touches me a lot with its deceptively simple but ultimately sublime presentation of ordinary good people. At first, nothing much seems to happen on the surface as it slowly rolls its modest promise, but … Continue reading
