  Indiscreet 1958

  ★★★★½ Watched 28 Mar 2025

  Well this is just lovely fun.
  It takes a bit of a taboo topic, puts two fantastic stars with dazzling chemistry right in the center, and the dance unfolds. Witty turns meet the comedy of Grant and the flawless facial expression of Bergman for a gentle kiss that bolsters enough charm for these middle aged icons to do their best.

  Night Train to Munich 1940

  ★★★★ Watched 26 Mar 2025

  An espionage caper full of romp and set pieces which portray a changing world as Nazism spreads through Europe. It's silly one moment, with that dry British wit, and boldly defiant the next, knowing only in part the horrors of the enemy.
  There's clearly some inspiration here that will appear in 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' due to its lasting charm and a response to fascism through unlikely heroes.

  Moonlight 2016

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 27 Feb 2025

  February 27, 2017.
  Moonlight wins best adapted screenplay, best actor in a supporting role, and best picture at the oscars.
  To commemorate this widely beautiful, surprisingly heartfelt, and eternally memorable moment in movie history for a film with the same descriptors, a24 rereleased it in imax.

  This film is a gift to the world; stay who you are and stay tender.
