  First Blood 1982

  Watched 11 Mar 2025

  Kind of a random Tuesday night viewing but what the hell this was so good! Very well made, lots of beautiful shots and great use of its setting. Surprising (to me) amount of character depth lurking in there

  Clueless 1995

  Watched 09 Mar 2025

  Every outfit in this film is the height of cool and glamour to me personally - imprinted on my brain at a formative age

  So funny, perfect dialogue, brilliant cast

  La Chimera 2023

  ★★★★½ Watched 18 May 2024

  A beautiful, surprising film. It hooked me in with grumpy sexy sunburnt Josh O’Connor and boy did it keep me.

  There were a couple of moments in the final part which I found transcendently moving.

  I never knew where I was going with this film and I loved that. Can’t wait to keep turning it over in my head

  Anatomy of a Fall 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 03 Jan 2024

  Banger of a film! Took a while to grab me (probs my fault for watching on my laptop in bed) but a captivating central performance. I loved how it shifted the parameters of the question at its heart. I stopped focusing on how exactly the fall happened and cared much more about the nature of truth, how much can we ever understand what happens between two people etc etc
