A bit bland, unfortunately. I could have done without the ham-fisted inner monologue.
Looked delicious, though.

Queer 2024
Ouch! Almost cloyingly melancholic, this movie is a penetrating portrayal of loneliness and our hunger for connection (pun intended). I LOVED the visuals and the soundtrack. Daniel Craig's performance was outstanding - imho, he'd deserve an Oscar for that blowjob scene alone.

The Beatles: Get Back 2021
Me before watching Get Back: Jaja, The Beatles - immortal gods of the musical Olympus.
Me after watching Get Back: They were just boys! 🥺
Watching this kind of musical drift compatibility at work (and also looking into Paul McCartney's big sad brown eyes from up close) felt almost too intimate.

The Pale Blue Eye 2022
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
The film does not seem to put much faith into viewers' ability to connect some - if any - dots: (unsurprising) plot twists are spelled out for us & pieces of the mystery are brought to our attention in a way that is kind of insulting - via obvious voice-overs and little flashbacks to what we had just seen 30 minutes ago.
I also thought some performances and choices were rather baffling: Why were the flashbacks to Christian Bale's daughter staged…
