As one of the year’s most critically lauded films and one that continues to smash all expectations, ‘Parasite’ is for many already an undeniable cinematic masterpiece. But for director Bong Joon Ho, it was his desire to create such a work of art that drove him to cut a black-and-white version of film. ‘I think it may be vanity on my part, but when I think of the classics, they’re all in black and white, so I had this idea that if I turned my films into black and white then they’d become classics.’ Bong explained that, as a child growing up in South Korea, his mother wouldn’t allow him to visit the cinema for fear of ‘bacteria,’ so he watched all the masterpieces at home on a black-and-white TV. NB: Screened with English subtitles.

Instruktør og manuskriptforfatter Greta Gerwigs filmatisering af Little Women baserer sig både på den klassiske roman af samme navn (på dansk Pigebørn) og andre værker af Louisa May Alcott. Gerwigs version af den elskede fortælling om March-søstrene er både tidløs og nutidig. Det er historien om fire unge kvinder, der hver især er fast besluttede på at leve livet på deres egen måde. I portrætteringen af Jo, Meg, Amy og Beth March ses Saoirse Ronan, Emma Watson, Florence Pugh og Eliza Scanlen samt Timothee Chalamet som deres nabo Laurie, Laura Dern som Marmee og Meryl Streep som Tante March.
