Another Round

This film is one of 15 movies in the running for an Oscar nomination in the Best International Feature Film category.

Portrait of a Lady on Fire

A dazzling, romantic romp involving two women in 1770 France.

Parasite

Having won the Palme d’or at the Cannes Film Festival in May, it is overwhelmingly likely to win this year’s Oscar for the best Foreign Film.

Birds of Passage

This film has some style and substance though I must warn you that it cannot be classified as entertaining.

Everybody Knows

A better title for this film would have been Nobody Knows and Most Audience Members Won’t Care.

Cold War

Cold War is one of the five foreign films nominated for an Oscar this year. Sure, it is in subtitles, but who cares when you’re watching a significant movie?

Shoplifters

A unique, captivating Japanese film in subtitles that involved a drama that I have never seen on the big screen.

Foxtrot

SPOILER ALERT: Given my feeling that few of you will see this film, I’ve taken the liberty to describe certain scenes central to my review.

13 Minutes

Had Hitler only spoken 13 minutes longer…thus the film’s title.
