  Joan of Arc at the Stake 1954

  ★★★ Watched 12 Mar 2025

  Honestly I didn't understand the opera at all, but it’s got some beautiful magic that only a few films accomplish

  A Touch of Zen 1971

  ★★★½ Watched 19 Feb 2025

  The vivid sense of adventure thrilled me from the start to the end (actually 3/4), which was close to Kurosawa's Fortress but not quite complete. The first half was too entertaining to define what comes up in the story's latter half.

  The Magic City 1954

  ★★★½ Watched 23 Oct 2024

  If someone were to give you the future you desired, you would feel miserable. You'd instead earn it with your own hands.
  It was like watching Camus on screen at first, but I was disappointed by the easy ending.
