Film Reviews

Dark City

Stunning visuals highlight this story in which a city's inhabitants are the victims of some cosmic experiment being conducted by a race of aliens.

Habit

Kissing a Fool

Krippendorf's Tribe

Live Flesh

Possibly due to the story's origin as a Ruth Rendell novel, this is the most coherent, viewer-friendly narratives Almodóvar's ever filmed. It also focuses on male relationships and features a young Javier Bardem.

Ma Vie en Rose

This Belgian film is a warm, startling, funny, and realistic study of what happens when a 7-year-old boy is convinced, beyond all reason and outward evidence to the contrary, that he is really a girl.
