    The Watermelon Woman

    A beautiful mix of formal rigor (it’s a mockumentary about a woman trying figure out how to make a film) and expansive performances (“If a dog collar didn’t do it, I don’t think a name tag is going to”). So funny, so ambitious, I want to watch it again.

  • Sweet Smell of Success

    Sweet Smell of Success

    Some sharp dialogue, a few too many moving parts, and one of the better villain performances.

    Low point in the meg franchise tbh

    The Brutalist

    Some really amazing images in here, but it’s prone to sudden and arbitrary turns that make you think “oh, just like all those other movies about an artist in pain”. Compelling, probably not monumental.
