One of the best oddball indies of 2019 to date, and one of the most daring, if not THE most daring, documentary of 2019 to date. Dig in. Continue reading
“Films by Women: Five Movies to Watch from February (2019)”
One of my favorite movies of 2019 goes right alongside a new Netflix original comedy straight from down under in February’s Women In Film Spotlight. In March. Continue reading

Touch me not as the corpses tan, while remembering all these small moments at Rust Creek with Mike and Nicky. (Translation: Here are some movies by women available in January.) Continue reading
“Films By Women: Four Movies To Watch From December”
It’s the last “Films By Women” piece of 2018! I bet you’re pretty bummed. But it’s okay; there’ll be other lists soon. Like, “in a month” soon. We’re already getting our 2019 watching underway over here in Andy Crump land. (There is no “we.” I am using the royal “we.” It’s my blog! I … Continue reading
“Films by Women: Four Movies to Watch in November”
This is maybe the first Films By Women spotlight I’ve done where I am guilty of not seeing one of the movies on the list, or, in the case of Kino Lorber’s Pioneers: First Women Filmmakers set, any of them; I didn’t have an “in” to score a review copy, so I had to review this more … Continue reading
“Films by Women: Five Movies to Watch in October”
Guys. Guys. Gals, too: We did it! We managed, for the first time in a long time, to drop a “films by women” column in the month it’s intended for! I’ll take the credit for this, but only because I take the blame for them not dropping in a timely fashion for the last few months … Continue reading
“Films by Women: Five Movies to Watch in September”
Weird to see a “women’s film” spotlight focused on movies from September posted in October, but, uh, mea culpa and such as that. The dog ate my homework. I dunno. There’s not a great excuse for the delay; that being said, I’d still offer that documenting the movies on Septembers slate matters, because some of … Continue reading
“Films by Women: Five Movies to Watch in July”
July has been a wasteland of a month for films by women. Not that there aren’t films by women out there in theaters for you to watch, or at home, and it’s not that those movies are bad or anything; it’s just that compared to other months, finding those movies has proven a Herculean task, and that’s … Continue reading
“Films by Women: Five Movies to Watch in June”
I’m not sure how I’m going to feel celebrating the 4th of July this year. I could celebrate the spirit of the country as I’d like it to be; I could mourn it, or rage against it, what it actually is. But you don’t have to! You, you, you’re lucky, you can beat the heat … Continue reading
“Films by Women: Seven Movies to Watch in May”
This month, we didn’t report on five movies directed by women currently in theaters or available at home. We reported on seven. Grant that two of them, The Rider and Let the Sunshine In, expanded in May but originally came out in April; we’re sort of cheating on this one. But if they’ve only just expanded, that means you … Continue reading
Films by Women: Five Movies to Watch in April
April is such a good month for movies directed by women* that this month, for Paste Magazine‘s Films By Women spotlight, we used three in-theaters movies and only two at-home movies to round out the list. Pretty neat! And those in-theater movies are pretty great, being Zama, Blockers, and You Were Never Really Here, which you already know my … Continue reading
Films by Women: Five Movies to Watch in March
Talk about timely (especially after last month’s very delayed publication of this column)! My latest spotlight on films by women is available for stuffing into your eyeballs over at Paste Magazine, featuring the mixed-bag A Wrinkle in Time (decent, not great, but definitely an influencer); the very good Oh Lucy!, a Japanese dramedy starring Shinobu Terajima, featuring Josh … Continue reading
Films by Women: Five Movies to Watch in February
If you didn’t find any chances in February to catch up on movies directed by women, let me help you out: Here’s a list of five, per my new monthly feature for Paste Magazine. You’re welcome, America. (Sorry, I wasn’t around when this went up, so I’m behind in sharing it. Still, I’d recommend checking these out, … Continue reading
