‘It cannot be understated: ‘The Lost City of Z’ is a revelation.’
“The film is more of a mood piece than a purely narrative feature, one that prefers to focus on the nuances of being different.”
“In ‘Aquarius,’ memories — of places, moments, music and lovers — balance imminent struggles to live well.”
