Liam Sharp : "This is the piece that landed me the Manthing gig I did with J.M DeMatteis a decade back. Again it was coloured - and very nicely too - but I still prefer it in black and white.

Another career high point this one I think."

Puzzle (2018) dir. Marc Turtletaub

An understated hidden gem. Kelly MacDonald and Irrfan Khan are excellent as a pair of competitive puzzling partners - but don't go thinking this is a sports film. The story is not groundbreaking - a woman finding her way out of the suffocation of a patriarchal marriage; a small life. But Puzzle is almost a perfect film in terms of production and direction (Steve Buscemi is listed as a co-producer).

The soundtrack, direction, and performances of the leads are what make this film special. Turtletaub is better known as a director rather than a producer (produced Little Miss Sunshine, Safety Not Guaranteed, The Farewell, A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood). Tonally this film is very different from his work as a producer that I've seen. Puzzle is all interiors and watching unspoken emotions, and it is my favourite kind of film - the kind that documents human growth.

Sigh, Irrfan Khan. The soundtrack over the credits was gorgeous - Ane Brun's Horizons if anyone wants to know.
