. Anton Dolin is one of Russia's most respected film critics, winner of the 2024 Enlightener Award, and a member of the Golden Globe jury. Until recently, he was a radio host, a film reviewer for the television show "Evening Urgant," and the editor-in-chief of the magazine "Art of Cinema."
The show must go on. Even after the end of the world.
Having welcomed 2025 with the vampire Nosferatu, we see it off with Dr. Frankenstein and his monster. A new Avatar is released by Christmas, and ash falls from the sky instead of snow. Is modern cinema a chronicle of everyday disasters or a recipe for salvation? Battling the forces of darkness in "The Sinners," stopping war in "Superman," and saving the planet from destruction in "Fantastic Four," Hollywood is plunging into a final battle for the right to separate good from evil.
David Lynch is dead. Who can we rely on now?
Jim Jarmusch, Jafar Panahi, Nadav Lapid, Bong Joon-ho, Wes Anderson, and Paul Thomas Anderson try to find a source of light in the pitch darkness. They have no capes, no tights, no superpowers—only talent, courage, a sense of humor, and the ability to feel the pain of others. This helps them (and us, too) survive.
Come talk with film critic Anton Dolin about the films that will be remembered this turbulent season and share the hope that next year will bring solace and a happy ending. Not only on screen, but in reality, too.
