Blue Velvet 1986
Heineken?? FUCK THAT SHIT. Funny, disturbing, well-deserving of the hype, a great exploration of the violence that American society is submerged in and why we all want to ignore it. I get why critics weren't into this, the vibes are fucked as always.
David Lynch empowers actors the way the best baseball managers empower their relief pitchers-- he kept putting them in the exact right situation for their talent to shine (which is wild because he also put them in such fucked up situations). Everyone is spectacular. A classic.

Lost Highway 1997
Massively fucked vibes, massively well-shot. Deeply unsettling portrayals of jealousy & matricide. Really intense & brilliant soundtrack, fun to see Bill Pullman's handsome-everyman vibe turned into something so creepy and familiar. The Mystery Man party scene is terrifying beyond words. Brilliant!

Kneecap 2024
Dunno how this even ended up on my watch list but I'm thankful it did and I'm thankful I watched it. Funny, interesting, heartfelt, silly, and boisterously made. The movie is filled with little animated flourishes that are on their own worth the price of admission. Cool dive into Belfast history & Irish language culture too!

What a funny movie. A gleeful celebration of so many low-budget action tropes that also studiously avoids a variety of more exploitative parts of the genre-- which is unfortunate cause the movie only seemed to really let it's hair down & be free when things got ~kinetic~. A little too buttoned up to be a silly good time, but not enough on its mind to be a thought-provoking journey.
Great lead performance, great villain performance, and very very engagingly made. Watch with friends it was a good time
