The Real Cops & Robbers (2022)
A brilliant true crime doc
This captivating film tells the story of a crime from both sides. It reveals a depth of storytelling that does not often appear it many 'true crime' docs. It is beautifully shot and deftly constructed, giving the viewer a powerful insight into this specific crime and its investigation.
The film's strength is in its simplicity. It has gained access to an extraordinary range of characters who clearly trust the filmmakers enough to freely open up.
Most films in this genre tend to hide very thin stories behind lavishly over produced assaults on our senses, The Real Cops & Robbers, on the other hand, is pure storytelling at its best.
The Loss Adjuster (2020)
Subtle brilliance
This is a low budget masterpiece. Thoroughly enjoyed this film. It is not what I expected but its subtle humour and deft direction achieved a cinematic experience that worked on a number of levels. It generated a warmth that growed from the screen.
