  The English Patient 1996

  ★★★★★ Watched 25 Mar 2025

  The absolute peak of 1990s international war epic costume drama. Swoon.

  18×2 Beyond Youthful Days 2024

  ★★★★½ Watched 22 Mar 2025

  "Rest paves the long road ahead."

  "Let's meet again after we've realized our dreams."
  
  Nothing will prepare you for the quiet emotional devastation in the third act.

  The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant 1972

  ★ Watched 22 Jul 2024

  If you've ever hung out with a "friend" who talks endlessly at you about themselves, but you can't leave because they're such a wreck that they're almost compelling, you'll understand what it felt like to watch this.

  German ennui is not a thing.
