Catching Fire: The Story of Anita Pallenberg (2023)
88%
B+
“Catching Fire is a redemption story and an against-all-odds accounting of one woman’s triumph over misogyny and addiction. More than that, it’s a tale of finding one’s real voice later in life.” –

“Indeed, Broomfield has created the definitive documentary on the early days of the Rolling Stones; even more crucially, he has shown both how the Stones became THE STONES and the cost of that success.” –

“As tenacious, groundbreaking American war photographer Lee Miller, Winslet appears in nearly every scene, dominates nearly every conversation, and says more with an arched eyebrow than many actors can say across pages upon pages of dialogue.” –

“The End We Start From is a success because its focus is not on the tropes of post-apocalyptic cinema. Instead it zeroes in on the love between a mother and her child, and that makes all the difference.” –
