- DirectorQuentin TarantinoStarsLeonardo DiCaprioBrad PittMargot RobbieA faded television actor and his stunt double strive to achieve fame and success in the final years of Hollywood's Golden Age in 1969 Los Angeles.i absolutely loved it, felt like a child of PTA and Tarantino, liked its pace, its characters (my love goes to both DiCaprios bursting through in tears and sympathetic stoic Pitt) and the final payoff ... loved Tarantino's Hollywood
- DirectorJoanna HoggStarsNeil YoungTosin ColeJack McMullenA young film student in the early '80s becomes romantically involved with a complicated and untrustworthy man.i expected this movie to be really good and honest, just as it was - admire the way Hogg directs her cast, to act some of the most (almost) documentary-honest situations

- DirectorNoah BaumbachStarsAdam DriverScarlett JohanssonJulia GreerNoah Baumbach's incisive and compassionate look at a marriage breaking up and a family staying together.amazingly humane, heartbreaking and just all around something very complete and close to perfect

- DirectorVáclav MarhoulStarsPetr KotlárNina SunevicAlla SokolovaA young Jewish boy somewhere in Eastern Europe seeks refuge during World War II where he encounters many different characters.what a soulful movie ... it's nowhere near perfect, there's some of it that feels unnecessary, some of it drags, but most of it just a very passionately crafted experience
- DirectorRobert EggersStarsRobert PattinsonWillem DafoeValeriia KaramanTwo lighthouse keepers try to maintain their sanity while living on a remote and mysterious New England island in the 1890s.what force of audiovisual and actor power, that i can say ... apart from that i still liked it very much, but don't have a well rounded opinion
- DirectorFatih AkinStarsJonas DasslerVasiliki Georgina PseimadaChristine JensenA serial killer strikes fear in the hearts of residents of Hamburg during the early 1970s.a really nice movie, seemed like a sort of side-project, but was done with levity, evolved very organically, had to reimagine the ending, that seemed to me very undercooked (but true story ..)
- DirectorAlbert SerraStarsMartín AngelLluís CarbóJimmy Gimferrer
