I set out to write a *spoiler-free* review of YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING that would still make for a worthwhile read after you’ve watched the film. This was the result (link below):

For @InRO, I spoke with Theo Rollason, director of "Queer Edward II", a new documentary about the making of and political context surrounding Derek Jarman's 1992 film adaptation of Marlowe's "Edward II". Screens one more time on the 18th at the London FF. api.omarshehata.me/substack-…

saddened to hear of the passing of Bill Krohn; strongly recommend his Hitchcock at Work, an intensely researched book that shows that despite his rep as a control freak & stern technician, Hitch was in fact very open to collaboration, input from actors, & even improvisations

Wrote on an eclectic mix of experimental films from @MuseumModernArt 's "Cinema of Transgression" program, and the free-spirited ethos of curation which seeks to broaden the ideas of transgressive cinema beyond the movement for @InRO. Link in the comments.

My first review of the festival for @InRO is for HOUSE OF THE WIND, a feature film from Cameroon about immigration, loneliness and chosen family (and which also has a similarity to Douglas Sirk)…
