  Where the Wild Things Are 2009

  ★★★★ Watched 17 Mar 2025

  such a bizarre film. i thought i had watched it as a kid but i guess not, though it did have a nostalgic undertone. 
  some visuals were absolutely stunning, especially the scenes on the beach. the shaky camera really contributed to the childlike perspective, and max’s script was great. when he’s planning the fort and he calls some room or tunnel a “compartment” it just felt so correct. a kid would have that vocabulary.

  Napoleon Dynamite 2004

  ★★★★ Watched 13 Mar 2025

  i did not expect EVERYONE in this to be incredibly awkward. the whole movie felt so random — i had no idea what was going to happen next but i loved that. great soundtrack too.
