Alexa Dalby Dog and Wolf Apr 14, 2026 4/5 François Ozon has made, in the main, a faithful five-star adaption of Camus’ seminal existential novella. His monochrome film has nailed the anomie of its central character and the blinding, hot sun. Go to Full Review The Stranger (2025) 91% - -

Alexa Dalby Dog and Wolf Feb 18, 2026 3/5 The President’s Cake has details/scenes specific to this wartime period and unfortunately lacks the universality of Panahi’s similar childhood-quest The White Balloon, but it’s still worth seeing. Go to Full Review The President's Cake (2025) 99% - -

Alexa Dalby Dog and Wolf Jan 27, 2026 4/5 It’s fascinating and historically accurate as far as anyone can tell: you feel you can see film history in the making. It’s Linklater’s labour of love. A must-see for all those interested in the cinema. Go to Full Review Nouvelle Vague (2025) 92% - -

Alexa Dalby Dog and Wolf Jan 20, 2026 3/5 Foy does a superb job of capturing Helen’s emotional journey and clearly put in the work with the bird handling as she certainly convinces. She has a lot of material to sink her teeth into. Go to Full Review H Is for Hawk (2025) 82% - -

Alexa Dalby Dog and Wolf Nov 17, 2025 3/5 The cinematography by Nick Morris is stunning and conveys both the restriction of BDSM and the freedom of biking on the open road. Go to Full Review Pillion (2025) 99% - -

Alexa Dalby Dog and Wolf Nov 3, 2025 2/5 Hopefully Odyssey is a satire. It’s put together like a cut and shut, when two halves of different, crash-damaged cars are welded together to create a whole car. Go to Full Review Odyssey (2025) 89% - -

Alexa Dalby Dog and Wolf Sep 4, 2025 3/5 It seemed like a great idea but it didn’t work for me, even as an imaginative twist on the romcom. Not even a comic one. Go to Full Review Paul and Paulette Take a Bath (2024) 50% - -

Alexa Dalby Dog and Wolf Jul 29, 2025 4/5 Late Shift is full of building tension as the shift wears on and you feel something awful is going to happen, partly due to the atmospheric music soundtrack...the everyday details of hospital nursing and the patients are really gripping, never boring.
