  • A Real Pain

    A Real Pain

    ★★½

    ‘My pain is unexceptional so I don’t feel the need to burden everyone with it’

    You know what was a real pain, that fucking tie dye hoodie. I get the symbolism but I don’t want it on my screen. 

    Initially, it was hard not to think ‘they’re so American, shut up’. I completely agree with Benji about the tourist thing but why are you swearing at people you don’t even know… The dinner table scene changes your perspective though. Benji doesn’t…

    The Pursuit of Happyness

    ★★

    Everything good about this film is undermined by the overwhelming final message that the American dream is not only ‘achievable to all’ but ought to be pursued over everything else in order to achieve happiness…you just need to work harder!! It manipulates the viewer into believing that anyone can have Chris’s success if they just keep going (as if his success is not purely based on ‘luck’), thereby failing to address the powerful systems intrinsic to capitalist societies that effectively ensure low-income families, particularly those who are BIPOC, remain in poverty no matter how hard they try to work their way out.

    ‘You have never been invisible to me’

    This is adorable but also melancholic. It’s so sweet how much one person can drastically change another person’s life. It really is the little things, and elderly people deserve to experience them as much as the rest of us. 

    I liked the parallel of loss between Louise and her mum, and Antonina and her daughter. They understood each other better than anyone else even though they couldn’t speak the same language. I love…
