    Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat

    Saw this on plane home, which always affects my experience because flights home make me sad and cathartic.

    Hard to review or compare this movie, as it didn’t really feel like a documentary. Was phenomenally edited. Loved the typeface (graphic design), and the seamless integration of (and communication between) text, voice, and song to tell the story 

    Was a really interesting historical story I knew almost nothing about. Characters I have never before heard of. Such a defining and prescient moment for the UN.

    I would've loved a hug from Khrushchev when I got off the plane.

    Watched this on the plane

    even on the shitty headphones (which I had to buy cuz jet blue too cheap to give them out) the music and sound was incredible. Jarring and intimate, amazing. Loved the politicking and slow build, Voldemort for pope

    Okay yes I do have to pee so bad but will review anyways… 


    Score…. Unbelievable.  Every movie should feel
    Like I’m at the clerb in every emotionally charged scene. 

    Zendaya = devious 
    Most unrealistic part was her spit actually hitting Zweig with all that wind. 

    Honestly I think that was a banger movie, really really dope cinematography very ambitious and coooollllll. I still didn’t know who to root for all the way thru and that’s how u know it’s good (blonde guy ftw tho)

    Part of me wants to be more critical but damn sorry this movie is just FUN.

    Mikes harder is a mandatory part of the experience, and once again club AMC is NYs hottest club. 

    Happy pride month to churros everywhere
