Tip of the Week
What to say about a goofy, raggedy-ass movie that veers from visionary thrills to dumb-ass comedy, shamelessly mixing digital fever-dream inspiration with the story of a motley clutch of pals palling about in Sydney's Newtown, dreaming of becoming the noisiest Australian garage band of them all... but don't have the talent to even drink, take drugs, kiss, break up, cheat, or wear tight leather pants properly?

Michael Bay: Reloaded
If anyone wants a colorful illustration of the psychosis of big-budget movies that fully explore the sensibilities of its runamuck auteurs, hooboy, I don't want to see anything nuttier or more nihilist than this for a long time to come

Text and texture
Claire Denis, bless her French heart, is willing to slow narrative down to gesture, gesture that indicates impulse a character is only starting to perceive.
