I tend to find epigraphs to films akin to a post-screening Q&A. When the film is good, I want to run out of the theatre and prolong the film’s, you could say, after effects. And when the film is bad, I don’t need more reasons to dislike it. Except in the case of Joan Didion’s hilarious epigraph to Greta Gerwig’s Ladybird, opening quotes can feel like cheating.

Ira Sachs’s striking new film Passages feels as if from another time. The parisian setting, the gorgeous costumes and the bad-tempered men all evoke a nostalgia for French ‘60s cinema. And yet, Belmondo or Léaud’s characters never showed up to their in-laws one hour late and wearing a crop top from the night before. Nostalgia is never as good as when it’s revised for a new generation. Set in Paris, Thomas (Franz Rogowski), an irascible film director, celebrates his wrap in a nightclub.

In my five years of attending the Fantasia Film Festival, I have never seen a crowd quite like the one at the premiere of Talk to Me. A wave of cheering, screaming and self-soothing whimpers hit the screen, only to resurface again and again. With their first film barely out, the directors, Australian twins Danny and Michael Philippou — known for their eyebrow-raising YouTube channel RackaRacka — are already in talks to adapt the video game Street Fighter. The wave keeps rising.

Kelly Reichardt’s cinema has been categorized as “minimalist” or “neo-neo realism” — two categories whose delineations and compositions have been greatly contested and rearranged. Regardless of the specifics of genre, Reichardt’s films are often patiently observed character (and space) studies. To some, Reichardt is a purveyor of granola cinema, to others she is “a major artist in a minor key.” Either way, her influence on North American independent cinema is non-negotiable.
