Richard Press movies, cinema features and reviews

The cult director's 1988 film brings his trademark subversiveness into the mainstream through its deft exploration of music history

Writer-director Carlota Pereda's tense blend of coming-of-ager and teen slasher expertly avoids shallow reflections on body image

To mark the release of Crimes of the Future, Steph Green sorts the body-obsessed auteur's vast filmography from worst to best...

John Michael McDonagh's angry but sluggish adaptation lacks dramatic punch, falling short in its attempts at anti-wealth satire

British filmmaker Peter Strickland’s food-obsessed fifth feature is big on detail but fails to make us care about its characters

This masterful follow-up sees the return of Honor Swinton Byrne as Julie, a Hogg proxy on a mission to make sense of a tragic death
