    Bram Stoker's Dracula

    ★★★½

    Brimming with unbridled desire!

    I love how Coppola makes the story his own and treats it as his passion project. While it did not work with Megalopolis, I am surprised how wonderful the maximalist camp is in Dracula.

    There is much to be said about the undercurrents of queer desire and transgressions. For a film that was really pushing the boundaries of sex and desires, I was a little upset with how it ends on Christian sobriety.

    The many, many cinematic errors are charming and funny. This is the best B movie and I don’t know how else to describe this

    Mickey 17

    ★★★

    I cherish it when literature and films have faith in the audience to be able to dig through a work of art to find meaning(s). For me, it’s a point of joy. Mickey 17, unfortunately, denies me that joy.

    The lack of subtlety and the pacing is hard to sit through.

    I did, however, love the themes that the film works with. Individualism, humanity, nature - the whole spiel. Needed much, much better execution.

    I am devastated. How can you even put to words what this film leaves you with?

    Aftersun confirms how heavy and unexpected the baggage of mortality and loss is.
