Gareth’s Picks Fighting with My Family (2019) Based on the true story of a wrestling family in England, this film is directed by the hilarious Stephen Merchant, co-creator of the original British Office as well as many other acting roles.  Here, he is able to showcase the astonishing range of acting by Florence Pugh, showing extreme physicality in the role to add to her depth of emotional range.  Her father […]

Gareth’s Picks Control (2007) This biopic about Ian Curtis from Joy Division is the first feature length film directed by legendary music video director Anton Corbjin. He actually worked with Joy Division as a photographer so he brings a personal connection to the film.

Gareth’s Picks   Lake Mungo (2008) This film often makes the scariest films of all time lists and rightly so.  Filmed like a documentary, it investigates the death of a young woman in Australia.  Slowly, things are revealed and the general ambiance of the film will fill you with dread and despair.  Definitely one that will make you think as well. Available to stream on TUBI     Living in […]

Gareth’s Picks  Underwater (2020) This is proof that Kristin Stewart is a star.  Yes, this film is derivative of several excellent films, but it also adds some nice elements to the Alien/Abyss foundations.  It is Kristin Stewart who makes this film so much better through her performance which has a physicality and empathy that makes it  than a science-fiction B-movie.  Worth a 90 minute escape. Available on TUBI     Nosferatu (1922 […]
