"It’s ironic that a film about a family that has constructed a perfect facsimile of a life for themselves should feel so overly constructed itself" - we take a look at The End https://www.eyeforfilm.co.uk/review/the-end-2024-film-review-by-amber-wilkinson #72SIFF #TIFF2024 #film #musical #cinema #movies #TheEnd #LFF2024

"Coimbra's touch is assured, Ulisses Malta Jr's cinematography helps create something that looks as crisp as shadows on clean concrete." - we take a look at Carnival Is Over https://www.eyeforfilm.co.uk/review/carnival-is-over-2024-film-review-by-andrew-robertson #TIFF2024 #film #cinema #movies
