If you’re an avid Shakespeare enjoyer but want to escape the old, conventional Shakespearean settings of the average adaptation, come see our two Shakespearean adaptations that take an exciting amount of creative liberties. No Beast. So Fierce., a German-Polish-French co-production, is an epic Arabic-German retelling of Richard III. Shakespeare’s Richard of York becomes Rashida York […]
The word “musical” brings a very specific thing to mind. When I hear the word musical, I picture the big, sweeping Broadway-style productions with a full story arc delivered in song. And those musicals can be quite a love-it-or-hate-it genre among film enjoyers.Then there are the so-called indie musicals. This can leave you But whichever […]
While we’re quite proud of the long list of countries contributing international features to this year’s Raindance Film Festival, we also have quite a few films that we didn’t have to travel too far to find. These films may have all been produced in the same country, but they span a wide range of […]
I’m chronically late to the attention on lots of the biggest movies, and always experience the FOMO of being behind the hype. Anora, Poor Things, Flow, and most recently, Sinners — all movies I procrastinated watching during their opening weekends and sorely missed the prime window of relevant conversation for.

Jordan Peele with Get Out, Ari Aster with Hereditary, Celine Song with Past Lives, — many directors and filmmakers nail it right away (or at least with their official directorial debuts), cementing their legacies and future viewers right off that bat. When a director’s debut […]

But there’s plenty of classic movies you may not have even realized were directed by women, like 1988’s comedy […]
Against the dazzling effects of action blockbusters and easy reliability of nonstop sequels, documentary features tend to fly under the radar. I’ll admit, as an avid fiction fan, I’m guilty of neglecting the category altogether. Yet, when I do indulge, documentaries always affect me the most. Any work of fiction ties back to real life, […]
Films with queer and LGBTQ+ themes aren’t only more and more common, but they’ve broken out of the restrictions of the romance genre, infiltrating a huge variety of categories. They can be heartbreaking like Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal’s All of Us Strangers, sarcastic and campy like Natasha Lyonne’s early lead gig But I’m a […]
If you’re anything like me, you might be a bit anxious walking into the theater for the next big horror flick.
