"While the end result is important, Hùng’s film is all about savouring the moment, something that becomes more urgent as it progresses - although talk of speed has little place in a film that unfolds with the pace and beauty of a flower." - we take a look at The Taste Of Things https://www.eyeforfilm.co.uk/review/the-taste-of-things-2023-film-review-by-amber-wilkinson #film #movies #food #71SSIFF #LFF2023 #CFF42 #NYFF61

"Eklöf doesn’t deal in absolutes, allowing us to see that Jan is both damaged and damaging, not just to himself but others - a hot mess in a cold climate," we take a look at Kalak https://www.eyeforfilm.co.uk/review/kalak-2023-film-review-by-amber-wilkinson #film #movies #Kalak #71SSIFF

#71SSIFF. Sección Oficial. Crítica de #UnSilencio por José F. Pérez Pertejo: Aciertos y errores en Joachim Lafosse.

"The film hovers in the grey area of Astrid's psyche, with long takes, often focused on Devos' features." - we review A Silence https://www.eyeforfilm.co.uk/review/a-silence-2023-film-review-by-amber-wilkinson #71SSIFF #film #movies

: “I prefer to play with body language, eyes and the mood.

"It’s not the first time a film has scrutinised what it means to be “a good victim” but Girard’s general restraint, coupled with a controlled central performance from Alaoui bring it home." - we take a look at Through The Night (Quitter la nuit) https://www.eyeforfilm.co.uk/review/through-the-night-2023-film-review-by-amber-wilkinson #films #movies #MeToo #71SSIFF #VeniceFilmFestival2023
