    Just not my favorite Tarantino film. Reservoir Dogs is so much better IMHO

  • Dawn of the Dead

    Far and away my favorite of the Romero zombie films. Unclear if this hits as hard for the post-mall generation, but it's hard not to love the absolutely blatant critique of consumerism baked into the apocalyptic dread.

    As a person who generally has little to no time for the Catholic Church, I have to say this movie was a fantastic surprise. Aside from the obviously top shelf cast, the story, cinematography, soundtrack, production design, costume design, and yes even the sound design were all simply outstanding. Highly recommended.

    Little Richard: I Am Everything

    ★★★★

    He was the architect and original avatar of rock and roll but as a queer black man was perpetually passed over by the new musical world he ushered in.

    Told with impressive depth and nuance, and just a touch of artistry in the telling. A pretty unvarnished but nonetheless inspiring portrait of a complicated man, in many ways decades ahead of the times he lived in.
