"See why political cinema still matters How direct and open political statements can have such indelible impact We need political cinema more than before. This empty rhetoric of "our films focus on humanism not politics" is utter bullshit. In [----] everything is political"

"What a fuckin disappointment Lszl Nemes has turned out to be. Glazer "has no understanding of history and the forces undoing civilisation" But I'm pretty sure you are.

"The film with the most original vision on the Arab World and Islamic culture is none of the Middle Eastern movies in all of #Cannes18. Its Godards Le livre dimage. Less playful and mournful than Adieu au langage but intellectually fiercer and so of the moment"

"Spike Lees BlacKkKlansman is hilarious and enraging in equal measures. The fact that its so relevant to the current political climate speaks volumes about how low America has descended. Its ending is arguably the most powerful of any film in #Cannes18"

"#Cannes2018 saved the best for last.Nuri Bilge Ceylan's 'The Wild Pear Tree' is phenomenal:funny multi-layered and heartbreaking.Dialogue is as abundant as 'Winter Sleep' but nowhere as heavy-handed and far richer. It's Ceylan's most immediate film to dateand hi most political"
