Comments

Over the decades, a lot has been said about every one of these iconic films, dissecting them from every possible angle. For me, the most significant aspect of these films is how they’ve pushed the envelope, again and again, stood the test of time, and become milestones in the development of film as a language. Films of this calibre are true treasures for new cinephiles, connected by the infinite magic of cinema, not just as a relic from the past, but as stepping stones to the future.

Cut,
