"...none more so than Payal Kapadia's sublime tale of three women in modern Mumbai. It's a grittily real movie graced, in equal parts, by keen-eyed documentary and dreamy poetry."
"Like Kapadia, RaMell Ross started out in documentary before bringing a singular eye to narrative film. His adaptation of Colson Whitehead's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, about two Black teenagers at an abusive reform school in the Jim Crow South, is shot mostly from the two boys' first-person perspective."
"So many of the reasons to go to the movies - to laugh at a clattering comic set piece, to witness the breakthrough of a young performer, to be devastated by something tragic - are contained within the thrillingly kitchen-sink Anora."
"The fury of Agnieszka Holland's searing migrant drama is suitably calibrated to the crisis. Along the Poland-Belarus border, a small band of migrants from Syria and Afghanistan are sent back and forth."
