Based upon Anna Todd’s novel–which itself has been described as a work of One Direction fan fiction–After is a mild entry into the good girl takes a walk on the wild side genre that’s been the basis for countless teen romances, thrillers, and Nicolas Sparks romantic dramas. Jenny Gage, the director of the admired All This Panic–a film about the internal lives of teenage girls battling dysfunctional families, uncertain living conditions, and the general anxiety of growing up and going to college–is certainly an interesting choice to direct After, although Catherine Breillat would have been an inspired one.
Josephine Langford stars as Tessa Young, a freshman attending a generic college in the suburbs of a major North American city who leaves behind protective mother Carol (Selma Blair) and high school senior boyfriend Noah (Dylan Arnold).

2017 was a hell of a year, no? It’s hard to discuss a year in review, even as specific as one about cinema, without trying to make amends with the fact that this has been a chaotic year on a global level. However, as we as a world become more divided, cinema from around the world is slowly evolving the language with which we communicate on a global level. Films with a focus as specific as a woman dealing with the loss of her brother to one looking at the experiences of teenage girls in the Us, all reaching deep truths about the human condition that do their small part in bringing all of us together. And with that, these are the ten best motion pictures of 2017.
Oh, first, a disclaimer that will, itself divide. Twin Peaks: The Return is absolutely a movie, and is the greatest cinematic achievement of this century.

Turkish cats, white supremacist terrorists, underground artists, climate change activists, controversial politicians, hackers, ballerinas and YouTube celebrities. These are just some of the subjects of the One-hundred-and-seventy films that have been submitted for the Best Documentary Feature Academy Award. Yes, that 170 figure is a record and no, you probably haven't heard of a lot of them. Not even I had, and I write a weekly column on the subject.
We have tried to cover as many as possible, but trust me there's only so much we can do! Of course, on one hand, the number of titles listed here is daunting and massive.

It may seem like there are only certain times of the year when the movies are worth watching, but the reality is that quality cinema hits theaters and VOD platforms all year round. We haven’t reached the halfway mark in 2017 yet, there are already dozens of quality new releases, many of which will continue to deserve singling out by the end of the year. IndieWire’s film team has seen a lot of them. The following ranked list was developed out of the aggregate scores from top 10 lists contributed by film writers in New York and Los Angeles. In order to qualify, a movie must have either received a theatrical release in 2017 or become available on a VOD platform during that time. Movies that received awards-qualifying runs in 2016 do not count. In many cases, multiple films tied for votes and are designated as such.

There are few moments in a person’s life more tumultuous than their respective teenage years. A series of dramatic changes after dramatic changes, these years are not only ones of growth physically and mentally, but also formative with regards to one’s world view and social acumen. Friends come and go, college looms heavy and so does moving out of one’s parent’s house. These are the years that truly make one who they are.
And these are the years that are the subject of one of 2017’s most interesting documentary films.
Entitled All This Panic, the film comes from director Jenny Gage, and looks at the teenage years of a collection of young women growing up in New York City. Shot over three years, the film follows seven young women as they bob and weave through this world that is at once deeply scary and yet equally exciting and exhilarating.

Hungry for fresh nourishment, specialty audiences flocked to new World War II drama “The Zookeeper’s Wife” (Focus Features), directed by Niki Caro and starring Jessica Chastain.
While smart-house moviegoers can be discerning — see Fox Searchlight’s “Wilson” — the holocaust drama overcame modest reviews to score in wider initial release. The dearth of other product should help Focus to find bigger success ahead.

Part of Hot Docs’ 2017 slate, Kalina Bertin’s “Manic” is an intimate journey through time and the mind as a woman tries to uncover truths about her father.
Convinced finding those truths would help her make sense of her family’s history with mental illness, Bertin attempts to piece together the realities of her father’s past. Discovering his multiple identities, past lives, and the cult who thought of him as the reincarnation of Christ, she weaves her father’s story with that of her siblings, who were both experiencing their own manic episodes at the time of filming.

Like some of the very best documentaries, Joseph Clement’s “Integral Man” grew into something very different from where it initially started.
The film started out as a fact-based feature that followed Jim Stewart, the most published mathematician since Euclid and a gay rights activist, as he discovered his passion for Integral House, an architectural marvel of a Toronto home designed around an internal concert hall.
Read More: Hot Docs 2017 Announces Full Lineup, Including ‘Bee Nation,’ ‘Bill Nye: Science Guy’ and More
Halfway through filming, Stewart was diagnosed with bone marrow cancer, a fatal disease that took his life in a matter of weeks.
The film is featured as part of Toronto’s Hot Docs Festival, which runs April 27 – May 7. More about the festival, as well as ticket information, can be found at their website.

Welcome back to the Weekend Warrior, your weekly look at the new movies hitting theaters this weekend, as well as other cool events and things to check out.
Two Very Different Movies Look to Divide Up the Weekend Box Office Business
With Disney’s Beauty and the Beast continuing to dominate at the box office with $90 million this past weekend, and Saban’s Power Rangers (Lionsgate) also doing exceedingly well with $40 million in second place, you wouldn’t think anyone would try to release a movie that might get overshadowed by those two blockbusters.
That said, what’s interesting about this weekend is the fact there are two very different movies that are competing very heavily for second place with DreamWorks Animation’s latest animated family film, The Boss Baby (20th Century Fox), taking on the live action English remake of Ghost In The Shell (Paramount), starring Scarlett Johansson.

Every week, one will be able to see the cream of the crop (or perhaps some simply interesting picks) of streaming titles (new and old) across platforms such as Netflix, iTunes, Amazon, and more (note: U.S. only). Check out our rundown for this week’s selections below.
The Blackcoat’s Daughter (Osgood Perkins)
Osgood Perkins’ debut feature, The Blackcoat’s Daughter – originally known as February at its premiere at Tiff last year – is a stylish exercise in dread, teasing out its slow-drip horrors with precision, and building a deliriously evil presence that hovers along the fringes. However, there’s a thin line between mystery and vagueness in storytelling, and it becomes difficult to decide where a...

Teenagers make for natural, even ideal documentary subjects. For one, there’s inherent drama in adolescence, with its natural forward progression and built-in obstacles (big games, big tests, first kisses). Beyond that, young adults can be extremely forthright, their narcissism—healthy if hopefully temporary—fueling the kind of nonstop confessional conversation a filmmaker would be lucky to coax out of older interviewees. The subjects of All This Panic treat the camera not just like a trusted confidant, but also a co-mythologizer. Everyone is the star of their own life story, but for these kids, easing out of childhood and into an uncertain future, that story seems grandly significant, like a soap opera with homework and curfews. Their constant running commentary helps us to see it that way, too.

“It’s just one of those things when you expect something to be amazing and perfect and it’s not.”
Those words are spoken by 16-year-old Lena in Jenny Gage’s gorgeous slice of life documentary, All This Panic, as she describes the feeling of liking a boy who didn’t like her back. Never mind that, though; aren’t they a perfect encapsulation of the teenage existence more generally? Lena is just one of a handful of teenage female subjects that Gage and her cinematographer husband Tom Betterton stumble upon in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn; the experiences of whom make up this exquisite debut feature.
Lena, socially forward but with a struggling family life, is joined by sisters Ginger and Dusty, Gage and Betterton’s neighbours, the elder of which has little concept of where she wants her life to go and confesses to being “petrified of getting old”; Sage,...

Jenny Gage’s intimate documentary of seven Brooklyn teenagers has been praised for its honest account of growing up. We asked four British school friends to assess it
‘I don’t want to age. I think that’s the scariest thing in the entire world,” says Ginger Leigh Ryan, one of the girls featured in Jenny Gage’s documentary All This Panic. Set in the Brooklyn neighbourhood of Clinton Hill and directed by the former Us fashion photographer, with cinematography by her husband Tom Betterton, the film follows seven teenagers – best friends Lena and Ginger, their school friends Sage, Olivia and Ivy, Ginger’s younger sister Dusty, and Dusty’s best friend Delia – over a three-year period.

The growing pains that come with the leap from adolescence to adult are never the easiest to circumnavigate. This is something that hasn’t been lost on director Jenny Gage who, together with her cinematographer husband Tom Betterton, has crafted a thoughtful and candid female coming of age documentary. If, at first, the film appears dangerously close to self-consciously mimicking that woozy indie cinema aesthetic – all soft focus, floaty camerawork and sunlight spilling into the frame – this artifice thankfully ebbs away in time as the themes are allowed to percolate and the film finds its own probing personality.
Best friends Ginger and Lena (credited as ‘Lena M.’ presumably to help keep her family’s post-breakup issues as private as possible) are the ostensive ‘leads’ here, but the story splinters out to five other Brooklyn-based teenage girls, some vaguely connected to the duo, others more intimately so (Ginger...

Filmed over a period of three years and several times as many hairstyle changes, All This Panic distills moments from the adolescence of seven Brooklyn girls, with intimacy and affection. Director Jenny Gage and her husband, cinematographer Tom Betterton, were neighbors of two of the girls when they began the film, and at its strongest, the access they were granted pays off in well-observed sequences, from the confessional to the theatrical. The result is a composite portrait of girlhood, refracted — not especially rich in groundbreaking insight, but often shimmering with feeling.

Awards season keeps ticking right along, but tonight’s Cinema Eye Honors promised at least a tiny respite from narrative-based filmmaking, as the New York City-set ceremony is all about honoring the best in the year’s documentary filmmaking.
Big winners included Kirsten Johnson’s “Cameraperson,” which picked up Outstanding Achievement in Nonfiction Feature Filmmaking, along with editing and cinematography wins. Right behind it was Ezra Edelman’s “O.J.: Made in America,” which earned Edelman a directing win, along with a production win for Edelman and Caroline Waterlow. Best TV offering went to “Making a Murderer.”
Nominations were lead by Raoul Peck’s “I Am Not Your Negro” and “O.J.: Made in America,” which each pulled in five nominations apiece, though Johnson’s “Cameraperson” and Gianfranco Rosi’s “Fire at Sea” aren’t far behind, with four nominations each. Both Peck and Rosi’s features ultimately walked away without an award.

From acclaimed Filipino director Brillante Mendoza comes an electrifying tale of enterprising Rosa (Jaclyn Jose), whose shanty of a shop in the slums of Manila resells candy from the supermarket and crystal meth from the local dealer, and the night her store is raided by police looking for their piece of the drug business. And so, from a back room at a police station, Rosa — who has been arrested along with her husband, Nestor (Julio Diaz), who’s a bit useless — negotiates with the cops over giving up her “ice” contact while her three eldest children (in their teens and early 20s) hustle around friends and family trying to raise the “bail” — ie, bribe — money that will secure their parents’ release.

Shot over a three-year period in Brooklyn, All This Panic offers a frequently disjointed look at the interior lives of several ordinary, middle-class Brooklynite teen girls as they search for meaning. This period is often quite innocent, despite the influence of drugs and parental mental illness, with immediacy rendered in bizarre aesthetic framing and frantic editing.

The girls being traced are never quite as interesting or engaging as Gage and Betterton believe them to be, navigating teen topics such as boys, drinking, tattoos, college, and eventually having a family. Opening as a diary of sorts,...
