Titane 2021
Not only one of the greatest movies of all time, but one of the great artistic achievements of all human history and that's on God.

The screenplay is super tight and keeps you hooked and intrigued all the way through to that gut-punch of an ending and Travolta and Allen both gave the best performances I've seen from them yet.
It obviously reminded me of Coppola's The Conversation, especially with regards to the main characters' obessive work on the incriminating tapes and how…
