Nocturnes (2024) Hamptons 2024


You need to see this on a big screen with big sound. It was made for Dolby Atmos but even as a stereo film it it wickedly aggressive.

This film is a look at a bunch of scientists who are studying moths. That may not sound like much but watching the men collect them is truly amazing. Even more amazing is the wide variety of moths the catch. I know that there are guide books full of the little beasties, but who would have thought the guidebook would all be in one place.

This is a really cool film just on the images and sound. To be honest I was so lost in the looking at the moths I realized I kind of have to go back and see the film for everything else. Yea I know that is not going to sit will with the filmmakers-but frankly they have given us some of the coolest looking images of the year which are enough reason to see this. Needing, nay, wanting to go back for the surrounding material is just gravy.

One of the best films you’ll see all year.
