  Delightful, and really beautifully lit at times. The opening frame, especially, really wowed me.

  Snow White and the 7 Samurai 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 02 Aug 2024

  "There goes Snow White, heir to her Daddy's cocaine empire."

  I'd mark spoilers if this wasn't the first line of dialogue in the entire film.

  My Dead Friend Zoe 2024

  ★★★★½ Watched 03 Mar 2025

  Beautiful, understated, and painfully real. Although I wish some parts had been a bit more non-literal or cerebral, My Dead Friend Zoe's authenticity and perspective are its strongest assets, with the story being told by vets in front of and behind the camera.
