Queens of Drama (2024) 87% “With playful visual flourishes, a willfully garish palette and winks galore, Langlois’s debut has stylistic ambition for days.” – New York Times Apr 17, 2025 Full Review Viet and Nam (2024) 100% “The film makes clear that even though Nam and Viet must be wary they are also achingly in love.” – New York Times Mar 27, 2025 Full Review Picture This (2025) 45% ““Picture This,” keeps it light, never letting the sharp edges of potential failure come into focus.” – New York Times Mar 6, 2025 Full Review Superboys of Malegaon (2024) 88% “A love letter to independent filmmaking, "Superboys,"...has its requisite share of goofball pleasures and familiar insights about scrappy moviemaking in the shadow of a behemoth industry.” – New York Times Feb 28, 2025 Full Review Compensation (1999) 92% “It is the loves, labors and vulnerabilities two couples in two different eras experience that make this black-and-white film from 1999 such an elegant and presciently inventive work.” – New York Times Feb 20, 2025 Full Review The Librarians (2025) 100% “Filmmaker Kim A. Snyder’s illuminating documentary offers a rattling look at coordinated efforts to ban books. More importantly, it introduces viewers to the everyday and increasingly vital heroes pushing back.” – Variety Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Seeds (2025) 95% “Director Brittany Shyne’s debut feature feels elegiac. A requiem is not the filmmaker’s intention, however. With the patience of a sower, Shyne lets the lives of her subjects unfold gently over two hours. ” – Variety Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Sally (2025) 79% “While Ride and O’ Shaughnessy never wed, [her] candor here marries a spectacular professional saga with the personal love story convincingly.” – Variety Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Middletown (2025) 100% “The directors tell a story of teenage tenacity but also one of adults grappling with the grit and hopes of their younger selves. That could have been overly sentimental. It’s not.” – Variety Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Come See Me in the Good Light (2025) 100% “The film invites us to ask ourselves: What is poetry? How does it make meaning? Why does it offer solace like so few other art forms? All this ruminating takes place even as we are transfixed by Gibson and Falley.” – Variety Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Color Book (2024) “As with the best films that train their gaze on regular lives lived with quiet forbearance, not a lot and everything happens. ” – Variety Jan 24, 2025 Full Review Every Little Thing (2024) 95% “Every Little Thing stirs insights and a sense of awe as it focuses on specific characters but also takes flight toward broader connection. ” – Variety Jan 10, 2025 Full Review The Six Triple Eight (2024) 55% “Perry’s best yet at balancing his entertainer gifts with his artistic aspirations ” – New York Times Dec 20, 2024 Full Review Patrice: The Movie (2024) “"Patrice” resists what some might accuse of “inspiration porn,” in which the very fact of having a disability is cause for audiences to cheer. Yet, its hero, her fella and her loving cadre still inspire -- on their own terms.” – Variety Dec 19, 2024 Full Review Freediver (2024) “Natalia haunts “Freediver,” making it both tender and psychologically absorbing. The film is dedicated to her.” – Variety Dec 10, 2024 Full Review Mary (2024) 29% “Vidor brings a humane yet grounded aura to Anne, one that feels lived. ” – New York Times Dec 9, 2024 Full Review All God's Children (2024) “All God’s Children follows this Jewish woman and this Black man as they try to unify their congregations in worship -- it does not go smoothy -- which makes this straightforward film so consequential and instructive.” – Variety Nov 25, 2024 Full Review Ernest Cole: Lost and Found (2024) 97% “Peck’s film stands as a requisite biography, but also a personal homage: The response of one politically conscious artist to the call of another.” – New York Times Nov 21, 2024 Full Review Lost on a Mountain in Maine (2024) 53% “Theirs may not be a wonderful life — and "Lost on a Mountain" never fully achieves its complicated halcyon aims — but an early scene of Ruth on the phone, rallying help in the search for Donn, is pure Mary Bailey.” – New York Times Nov 5, 2024 Full Review Exhibiting Forgiveness (2024) 95% “In “Exhibiting Forgiveness,” Kaphar’s autobiographical film debut, the artist again focuses on rending absence — and seeks to fill it fully.” – New York Times Oct 17, 2024 Full Review Lee (2023) 67% “Winslet’s performance demands that we consider the force behind the camera.” – New York Times Sep 27, 2024 Full Review The Featherweight (2023) 81% ““The Featherweight” isn’t a knockout. But it does land more than a glancing blow.” – New York Times Sep 19, 2024 Full Review Swan Song (2023) 86% “Director Chelsea McMullan, along with co-writer and producer Sean O’Neill, have crafted a work that echoes the artform’s grace and rigor, physical demands and details. ” – Variety Aug 12, 2024 Full Review The Supremes at Earl's All-You-Can-Eat (2024) 65% “There’s a lot to enjoy in this adaptation, which Mabry co-wrote with Cee Marcellus (the pseudonym for “The Woman King” director Gina Prince-Bythewood). Still, that doesn’t mean fans of the book won’t be dispirited by some of the film’s choices.” – Variety Aug 8, 2024 Full Review Find Me Falling (2024) 43% “Writer-director Stelana Kliris is undaunted by, though not entirely in control of, balancing her material’s at times somber, at other times blithe, notes.” – New York Times Jul 19, 2024 Full Review
