The Night Doctor (2021), a Cannes Hidden Gem
The Night Doctor achieves telling an original story in which the pace accelerates progressively while supported by dark aesthetics.

An aviation colonel comes to the Western Urals, to a large village of industrial importance. He remembers running here as a barefoot boy with his friend in the early 1930s. Then there was only a small crossing and a small village. About how they lived and studied here, how they became active builders of a new life, how they dreamed of seeing different countries, how they bravely fought the Nazis far from their homeland.

Netflix’s new comedy drama, Don’t Say Good Luck, is a heartwarming tearjerker as well as a love letter to the transformative power of being a theater kid. Directed by Julia Hart, Don’t Say Good Luck follows Sophie (Sunny Sandler), a theater kid who finally gets the lead role in her school’s production of Waitress - just as she finds out her mom Elizabeth (Melanie Lynskey) is dying of cancer. While the singing is by no means spectacular and Sandler’s acting is stiff, the film is grounded in the moving performance of Lynskey as a mother who wants nothing more than for her daughter to achieve her dreams, even if she can’t be there to see them.

The re-living of this historic trial through this film is relevant to current politics and disturbingly enjoyable to watch due to the excellent performances from the ensemble cast. If you like a juicy courtroom drama, this film will definitely scratch that itch in a really chilling manner.
