#Ammonite Really moving film, that, like its titular, er fossils, right?, once you get past its sharp, weather-beaten exterior, you'll be rewarded with what you find at its central emotional core. Sadly, the film was unfairly overlooked due to the unfair, reductive comparisons to #PortraitOfALadyOnFire, which is too bad, man, too bad indeed. Much credit to the awesome sound design and the bone-chilling cinematography (it is the English seaside, after all🥶). Credit, of course, to the supporting cast too: Jones, Shaw, Secareanu, McArdle. But, wow, Ronan & Winslet, perfectly at odds, perfectly matched, perfectly wonderful. Give Winslet so much credit, turning in one fiercely, committed performance after another, and, sadly, without any of the #Oscar scenery-chewing that gets one #Oscars nods. Too bad, man, just too bad… PS. What a great, great ending! - - - #FrancisLee #StephaneFontaine #JohnnieBurn #KateWinslet #SaoirseRonan #GemmaJones #FionaShaw #AlecSeca...

RIP Michael Apted .

RIP #MichaelApted One of my *very* favourite directors, without me even realising it! Of course, he was responsible for one of the most staggering achievements in cinema history: The Up Series. It's a crime that neither he nor the series was every recognised by the #Oscars. Seriously, what an omission. It was thanks to my film school professor #JedDannenbaum(RIP…sigh…) that I found out about this monumental documentary series (and almost everything else about docs, what a great teacher!). TBH and I devoured the ones that had come out up to that point, and we made the trek to the movie theatre(sigh…) for every installment after that. It wasn't just about life, it kinda *was* life itself, no?, spurring you to put your own life under the introspective microscope in seven-year chunks. We even met the great man himself; he couldn't have been kinder, or more patient(he must've heard my questions like a billion times before). But, ya know what, after the Up series ...

#Voyagers Good, clean #LordOfTheFlies YA poli-sci-fi fun. Expert craftsmanship, especially when you consider the budget for indie-sci-fi's. Beautiful work by the DP(well-lit scenes so you don't have to squint, imagine that?, and those richly saturated colours!), composer(not resorting to easy sci-fi tropes), and esp the drool-worthy production design(that, too, on a budget!). And, to top it all off, expert sound design by Hsu, the hardest-working (sound)man in the indie film biz👏! And the kids?, well, they're certainly all right, highlighted by a terrific villain in Whitehead, kid's a keeper. - - - #NeilBurger #PaulHsu #ScottChambliss #EnriqueChediak #TrevorGureckis #FionnWhitehead #TyeSheridan #LilyRoseDepp(#VanessaParadis's kid!, boy time moves fast😳!) #ChanteAdams #ViveikKalra(#BlindedByTheLight!) #IsaacHempsteadWright(#GoT!) #ColinFarrell(yes, that CF, be still TBH's beating heart!) @voyagersfilm @lionsgate @neil.burger
