The Silence of the Lambs 1991
12/52
Impeccably made film. I could tell it was adapted from a book without even knowing because the movie just looks like a book.

Being in Clarice’s shoes with *just* enough external information to keep the story going and, more importantly, make you absolutely terrified for her makes this a beautifully edge-of-your seat thriller.

A flat shot historical drama. Doesn’t sound to good on paper, does it? But, Amadeus rises above its contemporaries not just in its genre, but in the world of film as a whole.

Everything Everywhere All at Once 2022
The most emotive rocks I’ve ever seen.
Nearly perfect movie that honestly left me speechless. The writing, the acting, the visuals and most importantly the heart of this film are truly beautiful. One of my new favorite movies ever, the biggest recommendation I could give. All I could do after was hug my mom and tell her I loved her.
100/10
