Anora 2024
Realism in movies is a trait I'm drawn to because it's not something we're accustomed to seeing. The reality of love, violence, suspense, and horror are shocking because they're so rare.

Midnight Cowboy 1969
This is the first time I've watched this classic, and I had no understanding of the plot beforehand. The main character's downward spiral and the editing suggest that, at another time, this could have been a Darren Aronofsky film. Some scenes come from the main character's thoughts, usually showing past trauma or present jealousy. John Schlesinger would later direct Day of the Locust and Marathon Man.

Lots of blood.

The narrator's voice-over is unnecessary.
Samul Jackson's acting and his character's dark humor make this movie so great.Translated from by -
Naked Lunch 1991
David Lynch + Re-Animator = Cronenberg's Naked Lunch
Another David Cronenberg film, this time an adaptation of William Burroughs's book, Naked Lunch. I've never read the book so can't comment on that.
This is the Cronenberg film I wanted to watch! Pretty weird. Very weird. A step beyond the film, Re-Animator. This is not horror, but drug-induced hallucinations.Translated from by
