	Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) (2014)	Yasmin Shehab	I expected the films content to be as dynamic as the aesthetic, instead what I got was a film that contented itself with portraying a surface-level story of a man pining for glory and allowing others to define not only its form but its terms and conditins Posted Dec 02, 2017 Edit critic review
	Decor (2014)	Yasmin Shehab	As somebody unfamiliar with Hamama's body of work, many of the references flew over my head but I didn't need to be well versed in the golden age of cinema to recognise that the film held up Hamama's stardom and movies as a benchmark of artistic output.

	El haram (1965)	Yasmin Shehab	This experience of collective entanglement, of having our emotions toyed with with such deftness, can of course be attributed to the director, scriptwriter, but for me, even though she was surrounded by a stellar cast, Faten Hamama was front and centre Posted Sep 28, 2017 Edit critic review
