Tales from Earthsea 2006
One of the most beautiful Ghibli films but could have been 10 times longer to properly develop the characters and story.

All of Us Strangers 2023
Hauntingly beautiful and tender. This film is like being stabbed and kissed all at once. The exploration of grief, love and loneliness is powerful and made more so by Andrew Scott’s performance.
One I think I will come back to often, once my heart has healed.
“Fuck. I’m sorry.”
“It was a long time ago.”
“I don’t think that matters.”

Silence 2016
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
An epic of despair that had me questioning my own beliefs.
Despite not being religious, I found myself willing the priests to hold on to their faith in the face of their suffering. For that, Scorsese deserves a whole lot of praise.
