Me & Earl & The Dying Girl Review

For the over-sensitive kid in all of us, Me & Earl & the Dying Girl is something truly earnest, truly heartfelt and truly beautiful.

Stockholm, Pennsylvania Review

Half of a good film and half of not a very good film, Stockholm, Pennsylvania's mid-runtime fall from grace almost needs to be seen to be believed.

The Tea & Crumpet Filmcast: The Duke of Burgundy, Predestination And Kumiko, The Treasure Hunter (Episode 17)

This week on The Tea & Crumpet Filmcast, the gang talks Predestination, Kumiko, The Treasure Hunter and more.

Kumiko, The Treasure Hunter Review

Culture clashes are common place in cinema. Coming To America saw the funny side of them, and Hong Khaou's recent Lilting took a deeper look at their more tragic implications. On a fundamental level, you have a person uprooted from their home and placed somewhere alien - they don't speak the language, they don't get the etiquette, they don't like the food, and so on. But what happens when you're an alien wherever you go? Such is the sorry state of Kumiko, The Treasure Hunter's titular character - a woman with a loose grasp on reality, who is far from home even in her own apartment.

The Tea & Crumpet Filmcast: Shaun The Sheep Movie, Jupiter Ascending And Talkin’ Sundance (Episode 16)

Having finally clawed his way back from Park City, Utah, Dom joins a semi-depleted gang to run through the major releases hitting Britain for the first half of February. Joined by the apparently omnipresent David James, Dom and Liam discuss biopic exhaustion, why Eddie Redmayne should've really won the Oscar for Jupiter Ascending, and whether there was anything on at Sundance this year that was actually worth watching (spoilers: there was).

The Tea & Crumpet Filmcast: Kingsman, Big Hero 6 And Inherent Vice (Episode 15)

Another week, another Filmcast. In the T & C's most action packed episode of the year so far, Liam (Dom's still on hiatus, but will be back next week - promise) is joined by Dr. Lindsay Hallam (Lecturer in Film at the University of East London), David James (London City Nights) and Matthew Lee (Screen Robot) to discuss an exhaustive and exhausting week at the movies.

The Voices Review

The Voices is a strange, tonally awkward and thoroughly entertaining mess.

The Tea & Crumpet Filmcast: Ex Machina, Mortdecai And A Most Violent Year (Episode 14)

This week, The Tea & Crumpet Filmcast tackle Ex Machina, Mortdecai and A Most Violent Year.

The Tea & Crumpet Filmcast: Talking Oscar Nominations, Whiplash And Testament of Youth (Episode 13)

The gang's back for 2015 in epic, sprawling fashion. Dom and Liam take to the latest stew of Oscar-bait (and The Hobbit as well) with all the subtlety and taste of a bulldozer, partnered in crime by Dr. Lindsay Hallam, David James and Matthew Lee.

The 10 Best Indie Films Of 2014

2014 was one hell of a good year for indie film - so good in fact, that for this year's list I'm ready to discount any pre-2014-Oscar releases in somewhat resolute confidence that I'll still have badass set of movies on my hands by the time the dust has cleared.
