    Riefenstahl
    Veiel not only provides details of letters and images throughout Riefenstahl but also constructs a story of filmmaking through his own film. He conveys the emotion of “how could she” using selective footage and placement, timed interviews, behind-the-scenes actions, and subtle narration, allowing imagery to tell a story for the viewer to decide their side.

    Club Zero
    Quirky and uncomfortable but hard to turn away from, Club Zero is reminiscent of Yorgos Lanthimos’s The Lobster, especially because it has a tone of below-average existence masked in contemporary and forward-thinking superficialities.

    Sister Midnight
    Kandhari delivers a story one might never expect, lingering with you long after it ends, which is long-winded. He captures many details from set to screen with honest conviction, making them memorable within a very unusual but novel story.

    Young Hearts
    The beauty of Young Hearts lies in how authentic it feels.

    Nothing Compares
    With Nothing Compares, Ferguson captures the fire which fuels the still relevant singer. By honing in on a specific time frame but contextualizing it within Sinéad’s life, the film allows us to get to know the subject intimately.

    Why Is We Americans?
    Although it is interview-heavy, a great deal of archival footage fills out the movie. Udi Aloni offers education and insight into amazing people, motivating you to learn more about them.

    The Boys in the Boat
    The art direction and attention to detail in The Boys in the Boat are beautiful and well done, especially capturing the feathering of the rowing, the splashing and pools of water, and the creek of the rigging as the team of eight turns the oars with muscle and unison.

    Come Closer
    At its core, Come Closer is an unexpected reality check in a coming-of-age story about handling loss. Israeli writer-director Tom Nesher’s debut feature pushes emotions and reveals the underside of life, delivering a universal snapshot set in Tel Aviv, Israel.

    Modernism, Inc.: The Eliot Noyes Design Story
    Modernism, Inc: The Eliot Noyes Design Story is well-crafted and educational. Its deep dive into corporate culture design is fascinating.

    The Angry Black Girl and Her Monster
    Although the main narrative thrust may seem redundant for the genre, this perspective makes this well worth watching. This is especially true thanks to good humor, interesting family and community dynamics, and the lead’s convictions which have been decently constructed.

    When You Finish Saving the World
    When You Finish Saving the World offers unique insight into family dynamics in a modern society where the shallowness of a virtual world collides with real-life based on purpose and reason.

    The Fabulous Filipino Brothers
    However homespun The Fabulous Filipino Brothers might feel or even appear, the film has a certain charm, which many will enjoy.

    Lonesome Soldier
    The acting and direction in Lonesome Soldier should appeal to a broad audience, not just those familiar with PTSD and military life and outcomes. In addition, the film is well-shot and scripted, and Jackson Harlow has great screen appeal in every version of himself, along with the film’s supporting cast.

    Brian and Charles
    With Brian and Charles, Archer delivers a heartwarming and timeless film. The witty and clever screenplay efficiently sets up Brian’s quirky behavior in a touching and funny way.

    Girl You Know It's True
    The music is excellent, the direction is clear, and the story does not disappoint, even though it is true and sadly tragic. The acting makes sense and carries the film until the end. Perhaps what makes Girl You Know It’s True success is that you can’t believe it happened and is true.

    National Anthem
    Gilford’s National Anthem offers a sense of beauty to behold and accept. It is visually stunning and a complete story everyone can understand, with great drag performances and other spectacles that make this film memorable.

    Passion
    Although Passion concludes with hasty acts of passion and emotion, it does connect to a more significant issue of how love is fleeting and that commitment is the foundation for moving forward in a life worth living with someone.

    God's Waiting Room
    While a bit disjointed, the film does offer hidden beauty in a world of seemingly discontent and boredom.

    R#J
    All in all, I would say that R#J, as a new version of Romeo and Juliet, will have some appeal to its supposed Gen-Z audience, although I’m not sure they will understand it unless they read the play first. But isn’t that always the case that the book is better than the movie? If anything, do watch this film to the absolute very end.

    Midnight Taxi
    Well-acted and primarily believable, especially in the ins and outs of London, where most of the film takes place, Midnight Taxi is encapsulating and intriguing. Although it moves steadily for suspense, maybe a bit slow at times, the end is worth the wait.

    I'm Charlie Walker
    It is a straightforward narrative of racism where one man’s courage and refusal to give up provides an outlet for success and reform.
