Dir. Beyoncé Knowles-Carter. 2019, 137 mins. A kaleidoscopic, multi-sourced document of Beyoncé’s instantly legendary 2018 Coachella performance, Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé was a streaming sensation (and is nominated for three Cinema Eye Honors) but emphatically merits re-discovering on the big screen. The artist’s blistering, meticulously choreographed performances are interspersed with behind-the-scenes and process-oriented preparatory footage, with cameos by Jay-Z and Blue Ivy. Written, directed, and produced by Beyoncé, Homecoming is a volcanic document of creation, expression, control, and ambition. “Homecoming is directed and performed with exacting precision, but it’s freewheeling too, its star favoring spliced and inventive arrangements of her hits, the totality of which make the film feel more like a pinnacle than a pilgrimage.”—Jake Nevins, The Guardian
