Crying about... Seeking Refuge

Crying about... Seeking Refuge

In this episode, we are trying to lift your spirit through two #hopecore films, Limbo (2020) and The Swimmers (2022), which beautifully captured the lives of refugees; the struggle, the camaraderie, and the love they all shared together.  What are your thoughts?

Crying about... Family Holiday and Performance Art

In this episode, Sam and Keshia went on a trip to the French Alps (delusionally) with a Swedish family on Force Majeure (2014) and went wandering around the contemporary art scene with The Square (2017). Both films were directed by Ruben Östlund and we were transported to a world full of ego, emotional avalanches, fragile masculinity, and enough second-hand embarrassment to power the French tourism board.

Crying about... 2025

They cried, they screamed, they jumped off their seats. Sam and Keshia are wrapping up their 2025 in cinema - describing each film with a word and sharing their Top 3 and Bottom 3 of the year. What about you? Let us know your favourite film in 2025 by emailing contact@cryinginthecinema.com [contact@cryinginthecinema.com] or by sending a DM to @crying.inthecinema [https://www.instagram.com/crying.inthecinema/] on Instagram.

Crying about... Making Movies and Being Girl Dad

Some men have God complexes, so they make movies. In this episode, Sam and Keshia compare two of the biggest films of the year about emotionally neglectful girl dads who turn their inner lives into cinema: Jay Kelly, starring George Clooney, and Sentimental Value, led by Stellan Skarsgård. They may not win Dad of the Year, but they do make for fascinating case studies in male ego, artistic legacy, and the collateral damage of fatherhood.  Want to share your thoughts with us?

Crying about... Being Single and Poor

Welcome to Lanthimos Universe! In this episode, Sam and Keshia discussed the newest freshest Yorgos Lanthimos’ film Bugonia (2025) that came out this year and his previous classic a decade prior, The Lobster (2015). Not gonna lie - we do LOVE a dark, absurd, social commentary. If you haven’t been converted to a Lanthimos fan, then you probably should.  Segment: * Conspiracy Brain Rot Want to share your thoughts with us?
