  Hanging Out Yonkers 1973

  Watched 16 Mar 2025

  Hardly seems fair to assign a rating to this but I did enjoy the compositions and found myself pretty invested in the rounds of pool and chess. I do wonder what this movie would've been like if it had been completed. Probably another banger.

  Je Tu Il Elle 1974

  ★★★★½ Watched 15 Mar 2025

  She ate so much sugar it was as if she had a whole can of soda, am I right?

  I'm really falling for Akerman's patient style. It's fearless and it really pulls you in.

  Madman 1981

  ★★★ Watched 14 Nov 2019 4

  It wasn't exactly good but I can't call it bad. We were expecting worse. I just liked all the little flashes of creative brilliance, some interesting shot compositions here and there elevated it slightly.

  And I want Tom Waits to cover the song from the beginning.

  Good acting, good pacing. A little uneasy about the story they chose to tell at this point in time. Not sure if writing is what this should've been nominated for.
