Le Week-End
Ross Miller @ Thoughts On Film
- Excerpt: This insightful comedy drama is at its strongest when it focuses solely on the main duo and thankfully Jim Broadbent and Lindsay Duncan’s brilliant performances are there to carry the film squarely on their shoulders and, most importantly, make you believe in their well-worn love-hate relationship. In that respect the film succeeds at what it sets out to do.

2013 Films Not Yet In Theaters
Barbaric Genius
Darren Mooney @ the m0vie blog
- Excerpt: An axe to grind.
Cold War
- Excerpt: Cold War falls victim to style over substance, trying to do far too much in a film that barely breaks 90-minutes.
Crook
- Excerpt: Review of the Ottawa-shot crime film ‘Crook’ starring Adam Beach and Leah Gibson, which opened the Ottawa International Film Festival
The Facility
A Fierce Green Fire
- Excerpt: The documentary “A Fierce Green Fire: The Battle for a Living Planet” is an impassioned yet levelheaded history of the environmental movement.
Gloria
The Immigrant
Tony Dayoub @ Cinema Viewfinder
- Excerpt: On its face, THE IMMIGRANT appears to be Gray’s most blatant quote of THE GODFATHER (PART II, specifically) yet. But it’s how Gray subverts our expectations connected to that film that ultimately marks THE IMMIGRANT as his strongest film yet.
The Immigrant
Jimmy P
Jesse Cataldo @ Slant Magazine
The Last of the Unjust
Michael Pattison @ Grolsch Film Works
The Missing Picture
Much Ado About Knotting
- Excerpt: Review from the Ottawa International Film Festival
A Night in the Woods
Omar
Donald Levit @ ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Papusza
Marilyn Ferdinand @ Ferdy on Films
- Excerpt: Papusza was born in 1908 and died in 1987, thus making her a witness to both world wars, the occupation of Poland by the Soviets, and the forced settlement of the nomadic Romy in permanent homes. That she learned to read and write is remarkable in itself. That her poetry found a wide audience and acclaim in Poland and other countries is a near miracle. Yet, the hardships she suffered as a Romy woman dogged her to the end of her life.
Sign Painters
Andrew Wyatt @ Look/Listen (St. Louis Magazine)
- Excerpt: Directors Levine and Macon keep the film lively and engaging by focusing on colorful anecdotes and painters’ common passion for their art form.
Story of My Death
Michael Pattison @ Grolsch Film Works
Watermark
- Excerpt: Does for water what Gravity does for air.
