Crossing Delancey 1988
Love an NYC film. Love a film with signature hats (both Amy’s and *gasp* the hat on Rosemary Harris). Love a film with a female lead who is complicated and challenging. But most all, I love Bubbie.

Taxi Driver 1976
People talk about the Scorsese of it all, the De Niro of it all, the Schrader of it all. BUT LET’S HEAR IT FOR THE HERRMANN OF IT ALL. What a way to go out, huh?

The Brutalist 2024
Although I may kvetch about some of the plot choices towards the end, it’s hard to deny the sheer grandeur of this film (Score! Sets! Acting!) - a cinematic feast in many ways.
I also left the theater with things to chew on (not just the numerous snacks I had for the long, but engaging, run-time) - I appreciate that the movie didn’t lay its hand obviously bare like others have this cycle.
Also, Felicity’s accent could have been worse! Will count that as a win.
