10 Years Lost in Translation
Joseph Proimakis @ Popaganda [Greek]
- Excerpt: 10 years after its first screening, the film that brought Sofia Copolla into the mainstream, has a lot of unforgetable moments. But there’s one more unforgettable than others.

The Singing Ringing Tree
Gregory J. Smalley @ 366 Weird Movies
- Excerpt: …a rose-colored, romanticized view of the Dark Ages glimpsed through a hole in the Iron Curtain. ‘The Singing Ringing Tree’ is known in former East Germany (where it was a blockbuster hit in the 1950s) and Britain (where it became a cult item through TV screenings in the 1960s), but this spectacular curiosity still needs to be brought to the attention of the rest of the world.
Slacker
Dusty Somers @ Cinema Sentries
Slice
Peter Nellhaus @ Coffee Coffee and more Coffee
- Excerpt: In some ways, I’m not surprised that Kongkiat’s film might have have trouble finding an audience. The film is by turns perhaps too arty for the gorehounds, while the some of the art house crowd would undoubtedly be disturbed by some very graphic violence.
The Stranger (1946)
M. Enois Duarte @ High-Def Digest.com
They Kill Only Their Masters
Dennis Schwartz @ Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Three Films By Roberto Rossellini Starring Ingrid Bergman
Joshua Brunsting @ The CriterionCast
Trooper Hook
Dennis Schwartz @ Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Under Wraps (1997)
Benjamin Kramer @ The Voracious Filmgoer
- Excerpt: I’m not going to make any claims of greatness for this effort, but it’s a solid version of exactly what it wants to be.
