Ponyboi Review: Crime and Camp in New Jersey

Note: This review was originally published as part of our Sundance 2024 coverage. Ponyboi opens in theaters on June 25.

Born in England in 1943, Leigh remains an artist for the everyday person more than most. And this descriptor is quite reductive, as the writer/director’s aesthetic is deceivingly simple and incredibly effective. Our B-Sides…England · EnglandRead Article
