Venice 2026: 'Too Much Sugar' Review


Robert Greene makes nonfiction films in which he collaborates with his subjects on the final product, which often has a therapeutic element to it. Too Much Sugar is his latest documentary, and one of his strongest. My review is live over at Screen International.

My Interview With Robert Greene, Director of 'Procession'


Robert Greene makes documentaries that are described as self-reflexive. His latest is no exception: Procession follows the process of him working in collaboration with six men who were sexually assaulted by priests in their childhood, turning that trauma into therapeutic short films. For MEL, I had a lengthy chat with Greene about drama therapy and dealing with anger. Hope you enjoy.

True/False 2014: 'Actress' Review


Actress is a documentary about Brandy Burre, an actress whose claim to fame was a recurring role on The Wire. Since then, though, she abandoned her career to focus on being a mother. The film follows her as she tries to reignite that career, but it's about more than just that. Director Robert Greene examines gender roles, ageism and why none of us (not just women) can have it all. My review is up at Screen International.
