DID THEY MENTION THE MUSIC?

BROS - Marc Shaiman
 
"The plot concerns Bobby Lieber (Eichner), a queer podcaster and curator of New York City’s first LGBTQ history museum. Bobby is opinionated and proudly single, but his defenses melt away when he meets Aaron (Hallmark movie mainstay Luke Macfarlane), a macho-bro estate lawyer who’s as emotionally impenetrable as he is a total dreamboat. Their meet-cute, amidst a swirling vortex of vogueing club gays, feels like the proper 21st-century queer version of a NYC love story. Add in a score by Marc Shaiman and a bounty of Nat King Cole needle-drops, and you’d think this 'Gay When Harry Met Sally' would be off and running. But 'Bros' has a lot else on its mind."
 
Kyle Wilson, Polygon 

"Aaron’s outlook on romance mirrors Bobby’s. But after a few 'this isn’t a date' encounters, including one that winds up as an awkward foursome, the two have a fight that turns hot and eventually leads to actual tenderness. The second or third song that could’ve been in 'When Harry Met Sally' plays quietly in the background, and you know a non-ironic montage involving Central Park and Christmas trees isn’t far off. (It doesn’t stop at needle-drops: 'Bros' composer Marc Shaiman arranged music for 'When Harry Met Sally' as well.)"
 
John Defore, The Hollywood Reporter 

DARK GLASSES - Arnaud Rebotini

"Argento establishes the stalk-by-night danger of 'Dark Glasses' with giallo prestige as gloopy blood rivers rush from sliced necks between cobblestone gaps. Wire tightens around a centerfold sex worker’s throat as leathery black gloves pull the murder string until what looks like marinara sauce springs like a faucet -- it’s a scene we’ve encountered countless times throughout Italian horror, here a subgenre comfort. Composer Arnaud Rebotini finds a balance between Goblin-esque orchestral eeriness and banger DJ synth energies, elevating the sensual excitement that layers on like greasy-filmy grime. It’s a promising invitation to 'Dark Glasses' until the immersion fades; the sinful slasher mystery lacks stamina."
 
Matt Donato, Paste Magazine 
 
"As in any good giallo, women are in peril, blood gushes out of open wounds, a killer lurks, and the police are completely useless. The film’s main protagonist is Diana, a high-end sex worker who lives comfortably in an apartment of her own; there is something equally congenial in just how mundane her encounters with her clients are. As played by Ilenia Pastorelli, Diana is a no-nonsense woman who knows how to take care of herself, isn’t afraid to say what she thinks, and has no qualms about her profession. She is also endearingly ordinary: in one early scene, she stops by the side of the road to find out why people are staring at the sky, only to then hurt her eyes by looking at the solar eclipse for too long. It’s an eerie moment of course, and the retro electronic score by Arnaud Rebotini (composer on Robin Campillo’s 'BPM') imbues it with a foreboding aura. But Pastorelli’s energetic performance and Argento’s comparatively low-key direction underline its factual realism more than any heightened connotations."
 
Elena Lazic, The Playlist 
 
"Pastorelli’s rendition of the disoriented physicality pertinent to someone reacquainting herself with her surroundings, now that she can’t see them, oscillates between believable behavior and dramatic exaggeration. Still, the lack of nuance that defines her fiery reactions, before and after her life-altering ordeal, feels at home in the heightened tone Argento procures through Arnaud Rebotini’s musical cues and the gruesome imagery."
 
Carlos Aguilar, The Wrap 

"Perhaps the best way to give a sense of the film is to first describe its music. Initially moody, ethereal, and more than a little reminiscent of John Carpenter’s 'Halloween' theme, it turns into the kind of pulsating, bass-heavy cacophony you’d be likely to hear at a Rome nightclub by the time the first victim has met her brutal end. That’s emblematic of 'Dark Glasses' as a whole -- an enigmatic opening scene in which heroine Diana (Ilenia Pastorelli) first dons her eponymous sunglasses to shield her eyes from an eclipse suggests something dark but restrained, but most of what follows is over-the-top to the point of being ludicrous. That’s not surprising given that 'Dark Glasses' is late-era Argento, but it is a little disappointing after that killer opening and the primal effect of lines like 'even our ancestors were afraid of eclipses' and 'neither the sun nor death can be stared at.'"
 
Michael Nordine, Variety 

"Shot in eerie, diffused light by Matteo Cocco ('Blue Eyes'), scored with a retro electro beat by Arnaud Rebotini ('BPM') and using lots of dissolves, the scene is vintage Argento in its banal creepiness, transforming a regular scientific phenomenon into something otherworldly."
 
Jordan Mintzer, The Hollywood Reporter
 
DEAD FOR A DOLLAR - Xander Rodzinski
 
"The title of Walter Hill’s 'Dead for a Dollar' makes it sound like a spaghetti Western, and the picture opens with stunning vistas and a wistfully valorous neo-Morricone score that gives you the impression -- maybe the hope -- that it will be. It ends on a very different note: a series of titles explaining, with precise dates and details, what happened to each of the main characters, as if the film were based on a true story. It’s the 'American Graffiti' gambit of treating fictional characters as though they were real, only in this case it ends up revealing something essential about the drama we’ve been watching. Namely, how it could be so avid, specific, and scrupulously carpentered…yet remote."
 
Owen Gleiberman, Variety 

STARS AT NOON - Tindersticks
 
"Elsewhere, a slow-dance set to a swooningly gorgeous new song by Tindersticks frontman Stuart Staples is almost heart-stopping enough to compete with the 'Nightshift' scene from '35 Shots of Rum' (nothing can or ever will, but Denis is at least her own best imitator). It’s the cherry on top of a surprisingly warm score that often sounds like it’s waiting for permission to burst into Annie Lennox’s 'No More ‘I Love You’s,’' as the first half of 'Stars at Noon' finds enough flustered hope amid the apathy of political theater that you almost want to believe in it, just as Trish and Daniel almost believe in each other."
 
David Ehrlich, IndieWire 

"Chilliness is the name of the game here, even in the swelter of Nicaragua. Once Costa Rican G-men step up their pursuit -- there is some matter of a SIM card with stolen information, but you know how these MacGuffins go -- the pair set off on a chase unlike most others. Looking to lose an agent on their tale, Trish and Daniel embark on a daytime binge, stumbling through taxis and alleyways and open-air markets as they try to shake his tail. Pairing the action on screen with another frosty Tindersticks score, all low notes and single wailing horn, the filmmaker swaps tension for the bleariness of being day-drunk in a humid climate. With nowhere to run, the only escape is from reality."
 
Ben Croll, The Wrap 

"There is plenty of time to admire the ominous city streets and the lush countryside, and to appreciate the cool, jazzy score by the Tindersticks. There is also plenty of time to try and work out what on Earth is going on. The characters keep making gnomic, ironic comments, but it's almost impossible to tell what they mean or who they are. They hardly ever explain what's happening, and when they do explain it, you're left more confused than you were when they started."
 
Nicholas Barber, BBC.com 

"Glancing moments such as this act like shocks to the system, elevating Stars at Noon beyond auteurist curio. A trademark Denis vignette like the slow musical number here that’s shot in extreme close-up and scored with an unsurprising banger by frequent musical collaborators Tindersticks is juiced by a hard cut to an astonishingly evocative master shot of the empty dance floor. There’s also a rebel attack that Trish and Daniel find themselves in the middle of that occurs with such over-before-it-begins brutality that it makes the suspended horror of the moment hit with upsetting power. Though nothing beats the leftfield cameo from a certain frizzy-haired and wild-eyed American character actor who, as Trish’s beleaguered boss, brings unexpectedly broad, and immensely pleasurable, levity to the otherwise groggy proceedings."
 
Keith Uhlich, Slant Magazine 

"If you are tuned to the director’s wavelength -- her dappled images married to a rhythmic editing style forming a dreamy, disconnected world -- then 'Stars at Noon' has many pleasures. An empty dance hall becomes a hidden oasis. The rainswept city streets overflowing with graffiti and half-torn leaflets are poignant tableaux of melancholy, the jazz-infused soundtrack by Denis’ house band, Tindersticks, unifying each moment. But as evocative and intoxicating as these elements are, they never quite fit into a cohesive whole, as Trish and Daniel tryst their way to the Costa Rican border. Nevertheless, minor Claire Denis is still Claire Denis; just leave the John le Carré paperback at home."
 
Josh Kupecki, The Austin Chronicle
 
"What stands out is how Denis and DP Eric Gautier frame everything like a romance, when what transpires on screen is often anything but romantic. Trish endures seemingly endless indignities to get by, and the circumstantial lovers face ominous threats that ultimately escalate to violence, but the Tindersticks contribute a tender, jazzy score. Perhaps Denis does perceive this as a romance, though the press notes characterize the film as a 'romantic thriller.'"
 
Martin Tsai, The Onion AV Club 
 
"The movie’s most overpowering moment is simply that, a moment, stolen from the flow of time and disconnected from the others. Pausing during one of their mad dashes to nowhere, Trish and Daniel cling to each other on an empty dance floor, gorgeously bathed in purple light and backed by a haunting original title tune by the band Tindersticks. Dance scenes are perhaps a too-easy sweet spot for Denis by now, but there’s no mistaking her feel for entangled bodies and swaying rhythms, or her ability to forge powerful emotional connections out of almost nothing. It may be the most seductive of lies, but for one fleeting, fugitive instance, Trish is right where she’s supposed to be."
 
Justin Chang, Los Angeles Times
 
"30 or 40 years ago, Johnson’s novel might have made for a glossy romantic thriller from a major studio, sold on the spectacle of hot A-list stars and exotic Central American locales -- and viewed that way, 'Stars at Noon' might seem a surprising project for veteran French sensualist Denis, whose most genre-inclined projects have still been bigger on tactile detailing than nail-biting setpieces. But it’s also not hard to see what drew her to Johnson’s brief, brisk book, which dwells on the psychology of a white outsider in a land shaking off a history of colonization and foreign dependence -- a theme that Denis, raised in colonial West Africa, has tackled in films from her debut 'Chocolat' to 2009’s incendiary 'White Material.' The American setting and perspective may be new for her; the rest, from the film’s bristling, dust-licked atmospherics to its frank, corporeal eroticism to yet another shivery, enveloping score by longtime collaborators Tindersticks, is vintage Denis."
 
Guy Lodge, Variety

"The film was shot in Panama City and the lush jungle surrounds, under both blinding sun and torrential rain, and while it looks fine, with an adequate sense of place and lots of artfully draped intimacy in the sex scenes, it doesn’t match the expressive style of cinematographer Eric Gautier’s best work. Then there’s the score by English chamber-pop band Tindersticks, longtime Denis collaborators whose loose jazz riffs here seem antithetical to building suspense. There’s almost always something interesting about even Denis’ flawed films, but this troubled travelogue just feels a little off at every fumbled step."
 
David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
