There are some true stories that are so incredibly definitive of the idea that reality tends to be stranger than fiction that only two of the most deranged filmmakers could actually attempt to bring them to life on screen. This was the case for Mark Yavorsky, a seemingly mild-mannered young man (although in hindsight many…
How to Make a Killing (2026)
Crime doesn’t pay, but it certainly can make life a bit easier – this is a premise on which many fantastic works of art have built themselves, since the idea of looking into the mind of a criminal and understanding their motives (as unsettling as they may be) has become a common point of conversation…
Blue Collar (1978)
The creation of trade unions is either the best decisions or biggest travesty to ever happen to the free market, depending on who you ask – the workers who find themselves protected by these unions designed to uphold their rights and prevent exploitation find value in the process, whereas they can be a thorn in…
The Moment (2026)
We all crave fame, whether it’s the recognition as being a pioneer of your chosen field, or the ability to live a life of luxury and wealth that many of us can only dream of ever achieving. Who among us hasn’t at some point in our lives fantasised about the idea of performing in front…
A Traveler’s Needs (2024)
Does oversaturation truly exist in cinema? We’ve often found ourselves questioning whether a director who works frequently is more inherently interesting than those who take long gaps in between new projects. Personally, there can be an argument made for either, but the truth is that a balance of the two is the reason the medium…
Outcome (2026)
Everyone makes mistakes, and unless it is something that causes undue harm or removes the dignity of another being (or frankly just unacceptably breaks the law), everyone deserves a second chance. We all get away with certain misdeeds, granted they are within the realm of reason, which is something that has been consolidated in both…
Fall (2014)
All it takes to change someone’s life entirely is two words: “I know”. This is applicable mainly to those who have done something in their past that they would prefer to have hidden, and when these misdeeds are unearthed, it can cause them to spiral into an existential crisis, which is often deserved, depending on…
The Drama (2026)
When it comes to finding the love of your life, should there be limits on what you share with them, or is complete transparency a prerequisite for choosing someone as your soulmate, especially when the conversation about marriage begins? Logically, you’d expect that choosing to marry someone comes with the responsibility to share everything with…
Mrs Caldicot’s Cabbage War (2002)
We all desire to be seen and acknowledged for our merits and achievements in some way, but there are some who struggle when it comes to being recognised, mainly because they primarily live in the shadows, whether as a result of their own decisions or those of the other people in their lives. There exists…
Drugstore Cowboy (1989)
To be young and reckless, allowing yourself to be engulfed by the restless feelings of youthful abandon to the point where it seems like you have not truly lived unless you’ve flirted with death, either physically or psychologically, is one of life’s most interesting gifts, a blessing and a curse depending on who you ask….
