AFI FEST 2011 Film Review: Carré Blanc (Dir. Jean-Baptiste Léonetti 2011 France, Luxembourg, Russia, Belgium, Switzerland)

November 5, 2011 by Kathryn Schroeder

As a feature film directing debut, Jean-Baptiste Léonetti’s Carré Blanc is sure to make a strong impression on the filmmaking community, and the impressionable audience member who wanders into this dystopian view of the world’s future.  Shown as part of the World Cinema section at the 2011 AFI FEST, Carré Blanc is a relatively short […]

AFI FEST 2011 Film Review: Kill List (Dir. Ben Wheatley 2011 UK)

November 4, 2011 by Tom von Logue Newth

Emerging from the recent trend of independent horror in British cinema, Ben Wheatley’s small-scale gangster massacre Down Terrace made a bit of a splash last year.

AFI FEST 2011 Film Review: The Kid With A Bike (Le Gamin Au Velo) (Dir. Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne 2011 Belgium, France, Italy)

November 3, 2011 by Tom von Logue Newth

A new film from the Dardennes brother is always cause for celebration, particularly in Cannes where they just keep being given prizes. This year it was the Grand Jury award for their latest, Le gamin au vélo, and it’s been a popular title at numerous festivals since, finally rolling into Hollywood for the AFI FEST […]

AFI FEST 2011 Film Review: ‘Beyond The Black Rainbow’ (Dir. Panos Cosmatos 2010 Canada)

November 1, 2011 by Tom von Logue Newth

There’s always some good weirdness to be found in the Midnight Movies strand at film festivals, and my top tip for the AFI FEST sponsored by Audi, starting this week, is the fantastically trippy Beyond the Black Rainbow. Let me be clear: this film has not been picking up fans at previous festivals, with complaints […]
