The Last Black Man In San Francisco generates a buzz at Sundance earlier this year. It’s a quirky, enjoyable love letter to a city that’s rapidly losing its character.

Beanpole (2019)
Beanpole is a remarkable film depicting two young women in Leningrad in 1945, the aftermath of the war. It won Un Certain Regard best film and director at Cannes.
Ghost Town Anthology (2019)
This French-Canadian ghost story is an unusual and atmospheric film that leaves a lingering impression
Eighth Grade (2018)
Bo Burnham's Eighth Grade generated a buzz at last year's Sundance UK. It's a beautifully naturalistic and affecting coming-of-age film.
The Sisters Brothers (2018)
Jacques Audiard's English-language debut is a solid and entertaining western.
Burning (2018)
Burning is an exceptional, nuanced thriller with incredible acting. It resonated with me for days.
High Tension (1950)
Ingmar Bergman's long-unseen spy movie (!) is no masterpiece, but it's a brisk entertaining diversion.
Mandy (2017)
Mandy is a satisfying and visually impressive revenge myth, with a great role for Nicolas Cage
Sunset (2018)
László Nemes's follow-up to Son of Saul is a frustrating experience
The Fog (1980)
Revisiting John Carpenter's The Fog was a fun and colourful experience
