Bellbird is a heartfelt dramedy that tracks the struggle of a taciturn New Zealand farmer and his son to come to terms with a bereavement. Warm, funny and poignant – and quintessentially Kiwi.

1917 is a big budget war film featuring extraordinary virtuoso camerawork. However, for all its technical sophistication it is little more than a tense good-looking war thriller, falling far short of the greatness it aspires to.
