Review of Love, Gilda (2018)

By Ellin Stein (10) for Slate (2,081) on 19 Sep 2018

Review of A Futile and Stupid Gesture (2018)

By Ellin Stein (10) for Slate (2,081) on 02 Feb 2018

The ironic distancing makes it hard to get emotionally caught up in the sad story of Kenney’s self-destruction when the film enters Leaving…

Review of Dear White People (2014)

By Ellin Stein (10) for The Arts Desk (640) on 21 Nov 2017

By Ellin Stein (10) for The Arts Desk (640) on 20 Nov 2017

On the whole Rosewater is an auspicious debut, but I suspect it has taught Stewart that when it comes to movies, as opposed to journalism,…

Review of Love & Mercy (2015)

By Ellin Stein (10) for The Arts Desk (640) on 01 Jan 2016

As with all such biopics of artists, it helps to be a fan of the work, but Wilson is a sufficiently sympathetic central figure and the story…

Review of Birdman (2015)

By Ellin Stein (10) for The Arts Desk (640) on 02 Jan 2015

[Birdman] perches adroitly between dark humour and darker despair and injects a familiar story of mid-life crisis with fresh vitality and emotion…

Review of Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) (2014)

By Ellin Stein (10) for The Arts Desk (640) on 02 Jan 2015
