MARTY SUPREME -πΊπΈ
Liked it, didn't love it. Three main reasons why not: 1) 2.5hr character study of a man who doesn't really have one. He's driven, he's unscrupulous, he's self-absorbed. I get it. What else have you got?. 2) Stuff-stuff-stuff, busy-busy-busy, happen-happen-happen makes it feel a bit one-note. 3) That's an ending straight out of the Hays Code -- be as much as a villain as you like, as long as you get punished or find redemption in the final reel, however jarringly... But it was entertaining, if rather wearing.

KAMILLA - π³π΄
Adult drama from a child's perspective. Like the To Kill a Mocking Bird of post-war marital infidelity
β β β β
THE SNOW WHITE MURDER CASE - π―π΅
Slick and absorbing jigsaw whodunnit with a touch of Rashomon in its DNA
β β β β
ASHES & DIAMONDS - π΅π±
Gorgeously photographed all-time classic, innit.
