  Je Tu Il Elle 1974

  ★★★½ Watched 17 Mar 2025

  An observational masterpiece. I think this is one of those films that quite literally doesn’t shy away from showing everything. We see and hear even the most intimate thoughts of Ackerman’s character. Je tu il Elle almost feels autobiographical about Ackerman, reflecting her deeper feelings and thoughts. It’s just great in that sense, and some of the long takes, especially at the beginning and end, are beautiful—and even erotic?!

  Oh god this film was bleak and just depressing as fuck, it made England look like some nuclear wasteland but it really does fit with the theme of the film.

  The Red Shoes 1948

  ★★★★½ Watched 10 Feb 2021

  Awkward moment when I said I’m not going to watch this because it looks boring asf, and it turns out to be one of the best films I’ve seen in along time. The choreography of the dancing is extraordinary, I actually felt like I was sat in the theatre watching the art happen, and the set designs are mesmerising, and to think this wasn’t an adaption from a theatre play makes it even better. Also black swan is lowkey just a edgy remake of the red shoes.
