BFI London film Festival Report #2

Battered and broken, their eyes barely staying open, Ralph and Owen are joined by Berlin correspondent George MacBeth for a second heaving helping of LFF. The stakes are high, covering the likes of Radu Jude’s towering DO NOT EXPECT TOO MUCH OF THE END OF THE WORLD, Steve McQueen’s uneven symphony of OCCUPIED CITY, Mortezai’s unexpectedly bracing EUROPA, Scorcese’s *shrugging emoji* KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON, Franco’s divisive MEMORY, Todd Hayne’s blistering MAY DECEMBER, Luna Carmoon’s drab debut HOARD and Sean Price Williams’ promising debut, THE SWEET EAST. And possibly some other things. We’re tired. 0.00 Intro 2.14 Do Not Expect Too Much From The End of The World - Radu Jude 25.29 Killers of the Flower Moon - Martin Scorsese 44.47 May December - Todd Haynes 55.13 Memory - Michel Franco 1.07.28 The Sweet East - Sean Price Williams 1.20.30 Hoard - Luna Carmoon 1.36.48 Europa - Sudabeh Mortezai 1.53.05 Occupied City - Steve McQueen
