It took me quite some time to revisit this one. I think I only saw it when it came out in cinemas, and honestly, it became my favorite Tarantino film. There are so many things to love here, whether this always captivating and nostalgic idealization, this love for the ironic iconography it addresses. All this warm nostalgia that is saying goodbye to a cinema and an era, which knows while filming an idealization of it, that more and more is…

Pastoral: To Die in the Country 1974
It is one of the best movies to kickstart the Japanese New Wave, as it vividly expresses the ideas that were being explored by filmmakers of that era, especially the younger ones: a continuous struggle against the past and the post-war period, diving into existential and identity crises that permeated the entire Japanese New Wave and the youth of the time, amplified by cinematic experimentations that allowed a new approach to the unconscious and cinematic language.

Spider-Man: No Way Home 2021
Is a movie that maybe can articulate some idea that gives these boring and cliche characters (Peter Parker, his friend, MJ, and Aunt May) a narrative function (not that it’s such a hard thing to ask). Even though this function is obvious and far away telegraphed, with silly evolutions of script that it is concerned with a coherent and clean heart lesson for its characters. It’s not all bad, the scene in the coffee shop, in the end, it’s really…
