“What’s your favourite film of the last couple of years? Well, whatever it was, imagine you’d been waiting for what felt like forever for it to be released on DVD but then found out it was released in literally the laziest fashion possible. A barebones, non-anamorphic release with no special features, a ton of trailers before you even get to the main menu, nothing in the case other than the disc and, absurdly, burned-in subtitles that are so inexpertly done they occasionally cut the ends of words off. If you’ve managed to imagine all that, now imagine my dismay to find that this is exactly what has happened to my favourite film of the last couple of years: Joachim Trier’s masterful Reprise.”

If you live in North America you pretty much must pick this up. If you live in the UK, you may be lucky enough to see it in the cinema, as it’s currently making it’s way around the country thanks to Diffusion Pictures. It plays at the Edinburgh Filmhouse between the 12th and 14th October and then at the Glasgow Film Theatre between the 15th to 18th, so go and check it out if you, er, live in either of those places.
