    Paul McCartney Really Is Dead: The Last Testament of George Harrison

    ★½

    This movie is fucking awesome.

    When I was first getting into the Beatles when I was younger I stumbled upon this documentary and it legitimately convinced me for like 2 years that Paul McCartney was dead. Hilarious.

    Awful editing, fake-ass voiceover work, blatant historical inaccuracies, and incoherently dogshit “evidence.”

    But it’s so entertainingly bad that I enjoyed my time rewatching it after all these years.

    This film gave me a literal gut punch.

    So many emotions poured out of me: I was petrified, sad, happy, anxious, nervous, and all of the above. This is a film that really captivated me with its beautiful characters and story. It’s just such a well made movie and I can’t get over how nearly flawless the execution is. The characters are just so engrossing from beginning to end and it was so difficult for me not to be hooked…

    Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood

    ★★★★★

    I love movies for many reasons, Once Upon a Time in... Hollywood showcases all of them. It’s funny, audacious, entertaining, engaging, fun, and beautiful. It’s an achievement in entertainment, and it’s one of the greatest films I have ever had the pleasure to see.

    This is, by far, Quentin’s best film. It’s packed full of brilliance and subtlety. It’s expertly written and directed, topped off with astounding performances.

    It tells the story of actor Rick Dalton. He’s a fading face…
