Cinema from a Decidedly Queer Perspective
Evil Does Not Exist | 2024
There is something almost unspeakably beguiling about Ryƫsuke Hamaguchi's Evil Does Not Exist. The filmmaker behind Drive My Car (a 3-hour meditation on loneliness and Chekov that was so stunning even the Academy couldn't help but nominate it for Best Picture) and Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy is no stranger to thoughtful and introspective dramas.
