"An audacious and insane experiment, a triumphant film." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)

Russian Ark (2002)88%

5/5
 
"Free-associative, unreasonable and stubborn, unresolved, and elegiac in tone, In Praise of Love is a great meditation on memory, aging, and love." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)

In Praise of Love (2001)53%

5/5
 
"Eraserhead is a work of rare genius and real bravery; it’s a comic nightmare we all have at once and whose meanings lay just out of reach." -- Filmcritic.com
Posted Jul 1, 2005
 
Eraserhead (1976)89%
/
5/5
 
"Shot in 16mm and tightly photographed, the film is immediate and unflinching in its probity, its scenes ranging from the enormously cruel to the redemptive." -- Filmcritic.com

Scenes from a Marriage (1973)94%
/
5/5
 
"It's unique: a sci-fi feature wherein most of the exploration is done within the human soul, a kind of obverse of what we usually expect from the genre." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)

Solaris (1972)97%

5/5
 
"There are masterpieces scattered among Buñuel’s French films like confetti, but here one of cinema’s most brilliant directors made the most brilliant film of his career." -- Filmcritic.com

"Shame moves in deep waters: It shows, in the bleakest and most uncompromising terms, that the worst that war has to offer is the wounds it inflicts on the human mind." -- Filmcritic.com

Shame (1968)69%

"Visionary, insane, and barbarously funny; don't miss the chance to accept the challenge Weekend is still dying to make." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)
Posted Feb 9, 2006
 
Weekend (1967)94%

5/5
 
"Propaganda that transcends its own numbskull earnestness... When it connects, it's as poweful as anything you've ever seen." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)

Early Summer (1951)100%
/
5/5
 
"Defined a style of filmmaking as surely as Potemkin did. Renoir's lucid style manifests itself in a seemingly effortless craftsmansip still unequalled today. " -- Filmcritic.com

The Rules of the Game (1939)97%

L'Age D'Or (1930)91%
/
5/5
 
"It was released in 1929, but it still has the power to make audiences cringe today and it may remain the most notorious 16 minutes of film ever made." -- Filmcritic.com
Posted Jun 18, 2005
 
Un Chien Andalou (1929)100%
/
5/5
 
"Arguably the most notorious 16 minutes of film ever made, Un Chien andalou is still cinema's most potent manifesto of the irrational and the surreal." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)

"Maybe there's a movie more entertaining than Spies; it's possible. But if so, this is one critic who would like to know its name." -- Filmcritic.com

Spies (1928)100%

4.5/5
 
"stays with you long after the lights have come up in the theater -- how many recent movies can you say that about? -- and its horror and brilliance grow deeper with passing time." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)

Caché (2005)88%

4.5/5
 
"There is very little in the cold, clear air of Brokeback Mountain that isn't first rate [although] its argument may, for many of us, already seem strangely under- and overdone." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)

4.5/5
 
"It's not Dickens and it's not David Lean, either. This perverse retelling of a classic could only be the work of one filmmaker that I can think of. It's my boy Polanski." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)
Posted Oct 10, 2005
 
Oliver Twist (2005)58%
/
4.5/5
 
"Takes an absurdist approach to a sophomoric subject and wrings real laughs from it; a terrific comedy about lust, filmmaking, and the human psyche at its most clandestine." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)

Sex is Comedy (2004)70%

4.5/5
 
"Apted's emphasis is sometimes off, but the sheer wonder we feel as we watch these lives taking shape before our eyes eclipses any small complaints." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)

The Up Series (2004)n/a
/
4.5/5
 
"Like a fantasy project developed by a dirty-minded child, and we can all share in the adolescent stupidity and irresponsibility of it. It's a blast." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)
Posted Oct 26, 2004
 
Team America: World Police (2004)78%
/
4.5/5
 
"A freaking delight. Ruben keeps the threat both palpable and eerily undefined, and his payoffs are both ridiculously scary and hilariously unexpected." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)

The Forgotten (2004)31%

4.5/5
 
"The Chronicles of Riddick may not be a fully intentional success. But it travels in uncharted waters, and it's a garish, nutty, virtuoso entertainment just the same." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)

4.5/5
 
"The suspense is killing, but the sense of being in the hands of a skilled storyteller is relaxing, too. Out of Time is a blast without making you work for it." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)

Out of Time (2003)66%

4.5/5
 
"Its strange vacillation between the hopeful and the arbitrarily cold is still a mystery to me... It's not a great film, but then again, it is." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)
Posted Mar 8, 2004
 
The Triplets of Belleville (2003)94%

Fanny and Alexander (1982)100%

4.5/5
 
"At its least it's an impassioned indictment of those who would exploit the powerless and at best a call to arms." -- Filmcritic.com

"true lovers of cinema will find in it an awesome example of screen craftsmanship of a sort that has vanished as surely as the way of life it portrays" -- Filmcritic.com

"Brakhage was a dyed-in-the-wool advocate of the use of film for other than narrative purposes, and the body of work he left behind is the real thing: true-blue experiment." -- PopMatters

4.5/5
 
"the retro feel that the passing decades have bestowed upon it may make it even more enjoyable today than it was in 1953." -- Filmcritic.com

"The fact of Bresson's as yet undeveloped style, coupled with Cocteau’s fearless lyricism, produces a one-of-a-kind film. It’s irreproducible, a jewel." -- Filmcritic.com
