Cinema Clash

The Cinema Clash returns with reviews of: THE PROMISE, an epic historical romantic war drama set against the fall of the Ottoman Empire; THE LOST CITY OF Z, based on the 'true' story of British explorer Percival Fawcett’s mysterious fetish for Amazonia; CEZENNE ET MOI, a French historical drama about the lifelong friendship between 19th century painter Paul Cézanne and writer Emile Zola; IN SEARCH OF ISRAELI CUISINE, a documentary about the roots of, and inspirations for, Israeli cuisine; and TOMMY’S HONOUR, an indie inspired by the true story of a father and son in Scotland who founded modern golf. Is there a ‘hole in one’ to be found among this particular slate of films? Let the clash begin!
