The Substance 2024
"Fargeat believes that films that fill themselves with homages and references can push the viewer away from being able to identify with the film. She describes this separation as "second-degree moments" and chooses to stay away from excessive references. Fargeat finds it crucial to approach film and filmmaking with a genuine and sincere vision"

Poor Things 2023
Probably the best fashion film I've ever seen. There was something itchingly familiar about the sense of absurd frivolity, until one of the side characters brings up an Oscar Wilde play, and I thought "That's it! They're doing Oscar Wilde"

Thief 1981
Top macho movie, a cool crime thriller to bro down with. Early shades of what Michael Mann would later perfect with 'Heat'. Every cliché you can imagine is in here, but it's so smooth we don't mind at all. Well researched, realistic depiction of high end professional burglary, amazing visuals, and a killer soundtrack that blends soaring electronica, post punk, and hard rock. This movie straddles the ethos' of 70's and 80's filmmaking, with one foot grounding in gritty characters and the other kicking down the door of an action extravaganza
