Week In, Week Out Movies of the Week #1-2 (2022) 14 Jan 202214 Jan 2022 Titane (2021): So how about something completely different? Julia Ducournau's follow up to Raw (2016) is, if not more polarizing, then at least more abstract. The plot is somewhat simple:…
Week In, Week Out Movies of the Week #52 (2021) 31 Dec 2021 The French Dispatch (2021): Wes Anderson is one of the most stylistically distinctive directors out there - and you either love the style or love it much less than you…

Week In, Week Out Movies of the Week #50 (2021) 18 Dec 2021 Boiling Point (2021): Movies set in kitchens are...tight! But also exciting, dynamic and quite depressing, given the intensity so dutifully portrayed in each and every restaurant-based-story. Boiling Point conjures a…

Week In, Week Out Movies of the Week #45 (2021) 14 Nov 2021 Bergman Island (2021): I am almost willing to say that I'm ashamed of never having seen a Bergman movie (well, does half of The Seventh Seal count?). But I openly…

Week In, Week Out Movies of the Week #40-43 (2021) 29 Oct 2021 The Card Counter (2021): Paul Schrader surprised everyone with First Reformed, after a series of very lame ducks throughout the 00s. His follow-up, chronologically and thematically, is also a standout…
Week In, Week Out Movies of the Week #39 (2021) 1 Oct 2021 Bodied (2017): I have zero rapping affinities, but there's something inherently cool in this witty, irreverent and ambitious movie. Joseph Kahn didn't quite convince me with his previous feature, Detention,…
