Sight and Sound October - 2025 Magazine

In this specially selected list of 50 films, Sight and Sound critics, along with a host of filmmakers from Alice Rohrwacher to Mike Leigh, share vital works that they feel are underseen and overlooked – from little-known features by renowned directors to near impossible-to-see curios, and from Hollywood movies mislaid over time to global arthouse treasures waiting to emerge into the spotlight. We hope that you’ll dive in, discover some fantastic films and, perhaps, end up finding some hidden gems of your own on the journey.
