  Killers of the Flower Moon 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 19 Oct 2023

  As an indigenous population on the opposite side of the earth, this film hits hard. It understands the ~vampirism~ of colonisation beyond the initial large-scale wave of genocide and wholesale theft, into the 20th century's continued leeching from whatever is left. Lily Gladstone's not-dead but not-alive condition really seals the metaphor.

  Swordsman III: The East Is Red 1993

  ★★★ Watched 09 Apr 2019

  If you want to see Brigitte Lin kiss Joey Wong, then surf on a flying swordfish, then surf on a flying Joey Wong, this is the only movie where you can do that.
