So first things first, romantic TV shows haven’t really worked since shows like Modern Love and Normal People stopped airing. That somewhat changes Prime Video’s new romcom, Maxton Hall. The heir of one of the richest business families in England, James Beaufort, is everything one expects a spoiled brat to be. Adding to his good luck and fortune are his freakishly good looks; he’s a force to be reckoned with in his school. He’s also the headliner of his family’s latest fashion line, Young Beaufort, and his life seems pretty seamless until he finds what he truly craves for himself.

Looking back over the year at what films moved and impressed us, it is clear that watching old films is a crucial part of making new films meaningful. Thus, the annual tradition of our end of year poll, which calls upon our writers to pick both a new and an old film: they were challenged to choose a new film they saw in 2013—in theaters or at a festival—and creatively pair it with an old film they also saw in 2013 to create a unique double feature.
All the contributors were given the option to write some text explaining their 2013 fantasy double feature. What's more, each writer was given the option to list more pairings, with or without explanation, as further imaginative film programming we'd be lucky to catch in that perfect world we know doesn't exist but can keep dreaming of every time we go to the movies.

I'm not really sure what's going on here, but the trailer looks stylish and accomplished so I'm rolling with it.
I'll try to explain. Tiger is an Australian film made in snowy Tokyo, a love story set in the modelling world.
As the one line synopsis puts it...
During the winter season in Tokyo, two disillusioned models fall in love. When their stay extends, the relationship combusts.
Tiger is a new feature film by the collective known as Beaufort, and is written, directed and starring former model James McFay -- with music by Beaufort and other artists.
Information online about this film is all very vague and arty and in-the-know, and I presumed Beaufort was the pseudonym of one artist. But turns out it's a collective of artists and models based in Sydney.
From the very small amount of information around about this film I've gathered it's a cinéma vérité style film,...
