ALPHA Review: Violent Grief and Desperate Love

ALPHA Review: Violent Grief and Desperate Love

Grief is not a straight line that slowly leads from deep sorrow to acceptance and remembrance; it comes in waves, and can reignite like a bonfire at the strangest moments, even decades on. Fear can likewise come like an tornado that threatens to fling you into oblivion. Addiction can be a blessed relief from all that which tears at our souls, even if it kills us. Alpha, the third feature from Julia Ducournau (Raw, Titane), is an exploration of wounds fresh and old, the pain of growing up an outsider, the treatment of those marked as different and those who mark themselves.

I LOVE BOOSTERS Trailer and Poster: Important Community Service

I LOVE BOOSTERS Trailer and Poster: Important Community Service

After the off-the-wall, bizarro genius of his feature Sorry to Bother You, about a man using a white voice in his telemarketing hob that leads to uncovering a conspiracy that includes people turning into horses, and his limited series I’m A Virgo, about a gentle giant (and I mean giant) who takes on his city’s not-so-super-hero, I’m ready to follow Boots Riley anywhere. And his new film I Love Boosters looks like another insane, funny, brightly coloured, raunchy, and whipsmart story. The tagline: ‘A crew of professional shoplifters take aim at a cutthroat fashion maven. It’s like community service.’ The film features an all-star ensemble cast with Keke Palmer, Naomi Ackie, Taylour Paige, Poppy Liu, Eiza Gonzalez, LaKeith Stanfield, Don Cheadle and Demi Moore.

As exhaustion, injury, and doubt…
