  The Killing of a Sacred Deer 2017

  ★★★★½ Watched 19 Mar 2025

  Rocked. Barry Keogan is a freak. Must watch with Winters bone; Good time, movies which launched an actor eg barry, jlaw, Pattinson into the same role for a bigger market, Saltburn, hunger games, The Batman. 

  Fantastic modern Ghost story. I’m generally a Yorgos hater. This rocked. 

  Nicole Kidman scenes of course made me think of eyes wide shut. 

  Dialogue was better during the first half.

  Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down! 1989

  ★★★★ Watched 02 Feb 2025

  My takes are all the earnest and obvious ones: music, acting, color pallet and cinematography were excellent, the relationship abuse was stark as was the portrait of addiction, loved the Nosferatu reference in the movie within the movie, I cannot understand the Iberian Spanish - why is this the only Almodovar on streaming? The scene where she sings at the party is the best

  Sad they cut out Bradley Coopers rampage. Liked the first half better.

  Chinatown 1974

  ★★★★ Watched 18 Aug 2021

  Jack Nicholson like you hear Nick Mullen talk about. 

  Beautifully shot. Gritty and unglamorous except for the femme fatale.
