Review of Vox Lux (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Screen International (2,241) on 04 Sep 2018

Vox Lux is intellectually charged spectacle, with one foot in the Euro-art tradition and the other ankle-deep in the pop zeitgeist…

Review of At Eternity's Gate (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Screen International (2,241) on 02 Sep 2018

Despite a strong, affecting performance by Willem Dafoe – who, even more than Kirk Douglas or Pialat’s star Jacques Dutronc, looks born…

Review of They'll Love Me When I'm Dead (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Screen International (2,241) on 31 Aug 2018

Entertaining and informative as a contextualising accompaniment to Welles’s reconstructed experimental project The Other Side of the Wind...Neville’s…

Review of The Other Side of the Wind (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Screen International (2,241) on 30 Aug 2018

It’s a safe bet that many contemporary viewers will find the film confusing, abrasive, pretentious and antediluvian in its sexual politics…

Review of A Star Is Born (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Screen International (2,241) on 30 Aug 2018

Taken on its own terms as an unashamedly anachronistic attempt to muster the emotional intensity of the Hollywood melodrama tradition, Cooper’s…

Review of Dovlatov (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Screen International (2,241) on 24 Jul 2018

This slow-burning, pensively drifting evocation of the times of Sergei Dovlatov is not a conventional portrait, still less a biopic, but an…

Review of Hadewijch (2009)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Sight and Sound (827) on 08 Jul 2018

Dumont has reaffirmed his status as one of today's most individual and genuinely uncompromising auteurs…

Review of Better Things (2008)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Sight and Sound (827) on 05 Jul 2018

An inventive, unclichéd example of British realism which shines a light into rarely explored social territory and the unexamined lives of…

Review of Mysteries of Lisbon (2010)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Sight and Sound (827) on 05 Jul 2018

All these could be seen as gratuitous flourishes of auteur style, but they serve to undermine the naturalistic illusion, to remind us that…

Review of Ryuichi Sakamoto: CODA (2017)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 05 Jul 2018

Sakamoto is fascinating to watch…

Review of Ash Is Purest White (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 27 Jun 2018

The film's emotional center is…

Review of Ludwig (1973)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 27 Jun 2018

It can feel cumbersome, frustratingly disjointed, at times certainly a heavy watch. And yet this full-length Ludwig…

Review of The World Is Yours (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Screen International (2,241) on 17 May 2018

In the hands of Romain Gavras – music video wiz and maker of 2010’s eccentric Our Day Will Come – and with a mischievously cast giving…

Review of Happy as Lazzaro (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Screen International (2,241) on 17 May 2018

Beautifully shot, like Rohrwacher’s other features, on Super-16, this film, with its richly textured images, does indeed feel at times like…

Review of Climax (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Screen International (2,241) on 13 May 2018

You may emerge from Climax, as from a full-on club night, feeling shattered and asking yourself what was the point of it all…

Review of Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 02 May 2018

The conclusion of Infinity War is so shocking because it doesn't feel like a cliffhanger, more like a drastic wiping clean of the slate before…

Review of Aaltra (2004)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 10 Apr 2018

Tati-esque pacing, crisp black-and-white photography, and marvelous non sequitur moments lead up to a killer punchline, delivered in typical…

Review of Ready Player One (2018)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 04 Apr 2018

For all its ferocious energy, Ready Player One strikes me as the product of a cinema of exhaustion-it's a film about having come too far and…

Review of Tony Conrad: Completely in the Present (2016)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 08 Mar 2018

[Tony] Conrad doesn't reminisce like those artists whose discourse essentially fetishizes, classifies, and files away their own glory years…

Review of Quest (2017)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 08 Mar 2018

Ordinariness-and [Jonathan] Olshefski's ordinary, level-headed approach to documenting their life-is the keynote of this intensely moving and…
