As time passes, the unknowns begin to take place, and it becomes less and less clear when they are dealing with something supernatural or losing their minds alone. Here's a contestant from our review:
Veronika Franz movie and Severin Fiala's awesome movie The Lodge trying a magic trick. It is easy to understand in terms of Christopher Nolan Dignity describes stage magic in three acts: In the first act, “pledge,” the audience is introduced to something familiar. In the second, "chance," this common thing becomes a phenomenon. Third, “honor,” a great achievement or prosperity. The Lodge only nails the first act of the first.

From our review outside the Sundance Film Festival, in which the movie opened up loads of praise:

Or Earth's atmosphereOpening, an interview series introducing John through the young women and men who follow his lead, has a spirit of faith that may be mistaken for intervention Wild Wild County season 2.

Kit Green's follow-up to the Netflix documentary It puts JonBenét – and his first feature in the history of features – Assistant, a picture of the atrocities in the film industry and what made such a corruption of power possible. It's an amazing film, as we wrote our review here:
There The #MeToo movement they have begun to invite women to share their stories of sexual harassment and abuse, the number and scope of the news seems less appealing. It was hard to accept that the misconduct and cover-up may have continued for so long. Kit Green's film Assistant he focuses on that thread with a focus on the filmmaker's helper who begins to worry about the toxic behavior around him. In contrast Bombshell, which looked at the sexual harassment allegations against Fox News & # 39; Roger Ailes, Assistant played perfectly straight. With a focus on one-day events and the experience of one of their characters, Green effectively captures the cause of acting in such a brutal environment. No anointing is required.

French jokes are black Deerskin, starred ArtistJean Dujardin, is one of the most unique films in recent memory. Here is what our review at Cannes last year said:
To get an idea of how unique a French film is Deerskin a look at the official synopsis: "Georges, 44, and his jersey, 100% deerskin, have a plan." Strange line ready for a new black comedy from Quentin Dupieux (The truth, Rubber aka the killer tire movie), which stars ArtistJean dujardin as Georges. The film is small in every sense of the word – during the performance (the 77-minute clock), in the actors (Dujardin and Adèle Haenel playing the only main characters), and in a sense (the jacket is the thing) – and manages to climb to the highest level of camaraderie. That means Deerskin looks to be part of the nominations for the 2019 Cannes Film Festival, which features the middle of the "respected" competition, and plays at home Mandy and The climax last year.
