I was still intrigue to see this though, given the positive reviews of the film and the cast lined up for it, and… Continue reading Kajillionaire Review

With the next London Film Festival film, I wanted to make sure I saw at least one more foreign language film, and looking at what was available, this one seemed interesting.

For the second film I chose to see at the 2020 London Film Festival, I ended up going with something a bit more dramatic, compared to the dark comedy of Honeymood.
