#Conclave is a thriller with elements of a murder mystery, except with no murder, but intense none the less.

So to give a sensible shape to my presence here I'll start a thread (do they exist here as well?) with the, uhm, not tweets obviously, but uhm, posts? about #LFF2024 that I posted in that other place.
After that I'll get going with my reviews in Substack (I used to do them in Tumblr!)

#LFF2024 Film 46: Else - I wish I'd seen something else. Used a wide range of techniques to disguise the fact that it had few ideas and the characters were desperately underwritten.

An effective, witty, on-the-nose allegory for the fear, trauma & the messiness of motherhood, NIGHTBITCH may not live up to its bonkers concept yet it succeeds where it needs to.
The last of my #LFF2024 reviews, you can read my thoughts on #Nightbitch below.
In cinemas December! ๐ฝ๏ธ๐

While that third act pivot is a wild one & will undoubtedly divide opinion, QUEER is otherwise a magnificent, thematically rich achievement that digs deep into longing, obsession and queer connection.
You can check out my #LFF2024 review of Luca Guadagninoโs #Queer below.
In cinemas now!

SEX ๐ฝ๏ธ #LFF2024, the first part of Dag Johan Haugerud's ambitious trilogy of people talking about their problems in Oslo, works well because the marriages and families are at stake due to some rather small acts. But we all know little things mean a lot intheirownleague.com/2024/11/04/l...

Little late on writing about this, so excuse me if I'm not as specific as I would've been if this was done sooner, buuuut hey!
Last #LFF2024 film, European Premiere of "Piece by Piece". While not perfect, its existance has excited and IS exciting me. So, not a total Piece. ;) --> boxd.it/7Bv9ex

My final #LFF2024 review is for WE LIVE IN TIME, the Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield non-linear romantic comedy-drama that is decent if overly calculated. For Cinematic Sense.
