Cannes 2014: Maps to the Stars

Cannes 2014 Journal: Day Seven

Cannes 2014 Journal: Day Six

Cannes has turned magnificently shitty today, pouring down with rain and lashing wet winds all day. Just when you thought it’s all perpetual sunshine in the Riviera. So I mostly…

The Double (2014)

Richard Ayoade is a man of many talents, most of which were unquestionably proven in his wonderfully left-field debut film Submarine, perhaps the coming-of-age movie to end all coming-of-age movies.…

Only Lovers Left Alive (2014)

The genre of the undead, bloodsucking night-prowlers has long been buried into the grave of senseless mediocrity, no thanks to the patronising saga of teen romance, one which shall not…
