Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
Steineded How sad is this?
Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
runamokprods Enjoyable, simple short (15 min) documentary of photographer Chris Killip showing his photos – taken over a series of years – of the tiny English fishing village of Skinningrove, and recounting the stories of the people behind the images. The film's very simplicity gives it it's power. In a very short time we get insight into a number of things - Killip as an artist, the feel of a town with a dying way of life, the role of the photographer and artist in documenting a changing world. Almereyda has always had an admirable ability to make interesting films about small details instead of huge drama, and he does so again here.Not bad for a 15 minute short!
