There aren’t many forms of entertainment that unite the world quite like music, which is often considered one of the key universal languages, something that connects us under a shared humanity. Regardless of era, genre or language, there’s something magical about sharing a moment with another person, bonding over a mutual affection for a piece…
Carolina Caroline (2026)
“Let’s rob the world” How far would you go to be with someone you love? For most people, there doesn’t seem to be any limit, outside of anything immoral or criminal, which tends to become a potential issue for those who enjoy living their lives as law-abiding citizens. Yet, some will feel compelled to even…
Lonesome (1928)
Love is one of the great joys and mysteries of the human condition, and something that everyone from poets to philosophers to physicians has been trying to understand since the dawn of time incarnate, it makes sense that it would be subjected to quite a bit of analysis and pondering over the centuries. Some argue…
Safe Place (2022)
We all grieve in different ways, but it is almost universally agreed that the most difficult time in the mourning period is the immediate aftermath, usually the 24 hours following a loved one’s demise. In the case of an accident or suicide, where their fate hangs in limbo and they linger between life and death,…
Ice Age (2002)
Every one of us has a few films that we feel define our childhood – works that may not be entirely perfect, but nonetheless hold a special place in our hearts by virtue of coming into our lives when we were still discovering the world and its many peculiarities. The problem with a lot of…
They Have Changed Their Face (1971)
One of the great artists of his generation that as inexplicably faded into relative obscurity is Corrado Farina, who made valuable contributions in every conceivable medium, but has yet to be given the respect and acclaim he deserves. As a filmmaker, he was primarily known for his documentaries, but there are a pair of fantastic…

There is a legitimate argument that Homer’s epic poem The Odyssey (as well as The Iliad, its equally famous companion piece) is the most important work of literature ever written, or rather spoken. This is not solely because of age, having its roots in antiquity, but also because of the sheer cultural impact it has…
Memory Box (2021)
Memory is a fickle concept – these moments that we have consolidated into our subconscious, ready to be extracted whenever they are required, have amazed and bewildered biologists and psychologists alike for about as long as we have been studying human existence. Yet, it’s often those memories that tend to fade that have the most…
I Love Boosters (2026)
There are few artists who excite me more than Boots Riley, who has proven to be one of the most essential voices in contemporary media, whether it is through the incredible work he did as the lead singer of The Coup, or his recent pivot to filmmaking, where he has been able to express himself…
You Never Can Tell (1951)
There’s something genuinely charming about the irony that the best depiction of what it means to be human usually tends to come in films that are focused around animals. One of the most bizarre premises for a film ever produced relates to this topic, and comes in the form of You Never Can Tell, in…
