  • “The History of Concrete” Offers Hilarious Meditation
    By Patrick Howard
    September 18, 2026
    The History of Concrete (John Wilson, 2026) 4½ out of 5 stars Have you ever heard of the old idiom “this is like watching paint dry”? A classic phrase to describe an act that will most certainly bore you to tears. With that idea in mind, hearing about filmmaker John Wilson’s new documentary The History of Concrete may send a shiver of tedium down your spine. Remarkably, John Wilson (HBO’s How to with John Wilson series) transforms material that ... >>
  • TIFF Review: “Fjord”
    By Christopher Llewellyn Reed
    September 17, 2026

Here is that conversation, edited for length and clarity. ... >>
  • TIFF Review: “Phoolan”
    By Christopher Llewellyn Reed
    September 16, 2026
    Phoolan (Richie Mehta, 2026) 4 out of 5 stars Phoolan Devi, known as India’s “Bandit Queen,” may have been assassinated in 2001, but her earlier armed rebellion against the country’s deep-seated misogyny and caste prejudice made of her a star that keeps shining today. In writer/director Richie Mehta’s latest work, Phoolan, she is an unstoppable force to be reckoned with, refusing to accept the terms dictated by her world. Though born ... >>
