📸 The camera is a fantastic machine 📸

Provocative and brilliantly entertaining, FANTASTIC MACHINE takes us on a whirlwind journey exposing our unchecked obsession with the moving image.

🎬 Playing in cinemas NOW.

This is the kind of movie I want to see made. Smart, tense and modestly budgeted by todays standards. Superb from start to finish and may have the best (De La Soul) needle drops of the year! Superb!

Remember being blown away by this at Ipswich Film Theatre on release. Moll has been quietly banging out cold, efficient existential crime thriller masterpieces for decades. Long may he continue.

Revisited SIGNS tonight, a film I hadn’t seen in about 20 years. What a tremendously exciting & atmospheric film. Tight, precise & beautifully acted, engaging with grief + questions of faith & predestination with genuine clarity & intelligence. Shyamalan’s best?

‘CIVIL WAR’ ($50M) has passed ‘UNCUT GEMS’ to become A24’s second-highest grossing film at the domestic box-office, behind ‘EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE.’

Truly one of the transcendent film experiences. An intimate character study that demands to be seen on a big, glistening screen. Figgis's masterpiece.

Paola Cortellesi's lush, rather lovely B&W throwback THERE'S STILL TOMORROW is in UK cinemas this weekend. Highly recommend.

Lovely (as ever) to read Guy Lodge on Breillat's outstanding LAST SUMMER, and its 'innate, considered nastiness' for Film of the Week Such a sharp, chillingly perverse film, with a knockout central performance from Léa Drucker. filmoftheweek.co.uk/reviews/last-s…

Terrific line-up for in June at Picturehouse Central. Personal faves: the extraordinary I SAW THE TV GLOW from Jane Schoenbrun and the beautiful SASQUATCH SUNSET from the Zellners. ❤️

A pleasure to hear Steven Soderbergh and the Russo Bros speak so eloquently about their shared history at Sands: International Film Festival of St Andrews yesterday. Congrats to Ania Trzebiatowska and team on putting together this fab event.

Frankly speaking EVIL DOES NOT EXIST is a masterpiece, seek it out Team Picturehouse. This film is what cinema is all about- we discussed for long after the film was over. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🦄❤️❤️❤️❤️
