  ★★★★½ Rewatched 25 Feb 2023

  The first time I watched this, I enjoyed it. In the following weeks, it stuck with me, particularly the emotional crescendo of the last act. Upon second viewing, the big insights from small moments really shined and I was more emotionally affected than I have been by any other film in recent memory. This is not necessarily the best film of 2022 but it is absolutely my favorite.

  The Banshees of Inisherin 2022

  ★★★★★ Watched 16 Feb 2023

  Well, it wasn’t me first question, was it? “But what about me?” was me first question.

  I have so much to say that I can’t really capture it here, but I think this is the best movie to come out of 2022, a year that was stacked with really great films. The elements—the shot composition and pops of color; the Civil War backdrop; the banshee lore; Colin Farrell’s eyebrows—all come together beautifully in this somewhat magical, emotionally resonant story.
