BOFCA REVIEW ROUNDUP: 10/13/2023

THE ROAD DANCE

The Road Dance is a stirring romance/melodrama, based on a true story, and packs an emotional punch. Based on the 2002 novel by John MacKay, the film falls neatly into familiar narrative territory, but feels alive and fully-inhabited in the hands of writer/director Richie Adams.” – Joyce Kulhawik, Joyce’s Choices

THE TEACHERS’ LOUNGE

The Teachers’ Lounge pops like a kernel on a hot stove, and the explosion will make you question your every move in these fraught times.” – Joyce Kulhawik, Joyce’s Choices

 

 

 

 

BOFCA REVIEW ROUNDUP: 10/6/2023

TOTALLY KILLER

“It manages to be both a scary serial-killer-on-the-loose movie and a high school comedy. It’s a difficult balancing act that they pull off with seeming ease.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

 

EISMAYER

Eismayer joins other compelling gay military dramas we’ve seen lately, and ranks among the best of the genre.” – Kilian Melloy, EDGE Media Network

 

 

MIRANDA’S VICTIM

“Nothing in Miranda’s Victim suggests that informing criminal defendants of their rights is a bad thing. What it does do is almost as revolutionary: it tells the story of Trish Weir, the then-18-year-old whom he attacked.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

FOE

Foe turns out to have very little to do with the scant science fiction trappings of the story. Instead, it’s about how difficult it is for two married people to stay together.”– Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
