This week, Flick is joined by film buffs Maudie Osborne and Anthony Carew to review the latest from Jeff Nichols, who is also known for Take Shelter (2011) and Mud (2012).

The Bike Riders details the decade-long story of the Midwestern bike club, the Vandals. As an outsider, Kathy observes their transformation from a haven for misfits into a notorious crime gang. This evolving identity calls the club’s ideals into question, and young member Benny must choose between the allure of the Vandals and being with Kathy.

The team also goes on to review Yorgos Lanthimos’ new, witty triptych tale, Kinds of Kindness.

Teaming up again with Emma Stone after the recent release Poor Things (2023), and Efthymis Filippou, the screenwriter for his 2009 film Dogtooth, Lanthimos returns with more of his signature flavour of weird.

“This is a work of audacious originality, vicious humour and balls to the wall strangeness, giving the impression there are few places the director won’t go.” - David Rooney.
