Review of Closed Circuit (2013)

By Xan Brooks (287) for The Guardian (2,969) on 23 Oct 2013

Review of The Double Life of Véronique (1991)

By Peter Bradshaw (3,667) for The Guardian (2,969) on 12 Oct 2013

The elusiveness of the film is precisely the point: it is as beautiful and mysterious as a poem and its formal elegance and conviction are…

Review of Romeo & Juliet (2013)

By Peter Bradshaw (3,667) for The Guardian (2,969) on 10 Oct 2013
