Vagabond 1985
Super interesting film. In the beginning I wasn't convinced, but in the end it works really well. It's a great account of this sort of lifestyle, person, and relation to the surrounding society. The almost pest-like nature of it, and the freedom it entails.
What is very compelling is to consider where the audience stands in the situation. We (the audience) know from the beginning that she will die, but we laugh and enjoy the little moments and the not-giving-a-fuck…

Tokyo Story 1953
Against cynicism. I love the portrayal of the children, how greatly it captures the vanity and mere stupidity of a certain type of person, preoccupied with social status, pretending to keep busy not to be overrun by the emptiness within. Perfect film.

We Live in Time 2024
First half felt like a trailer for a movie (too much music and edits), second half like masterchef. The film lost the balance along the way, of what it was supposed to be about. The birthing scene was brilliant and so were the stars of the film who are the only reason to watch it.
