Who's That Knocking at My Door 1967
This is mostly quite mid but it was also really interesting watching Marty learn how to write and direct, and Thelma Schoonmaker’s early direction.
So true king, everybody should like westerns.

A Complete Unknown 2024
More like a feature length greatest hits music video with the most qualified actors of all time, and yet still falls to some typical and at times absolutely silly biopic tropes.
And yet these all wash away on the singularity that is Bob Dylan and his music, further lifted by a phenomenal Timmy performance (as well as the whole freaking cast!!). The performance by Chalamet; particularly his music performances are why he should have won best actor in my opinion.…

Maybe the best movie of the year?!? This is my first foray with Sean Baker’s filmography and what a wild yet beautiful ride it was. I want to watch Mikey Madison in every thing I ever watch for the rest of my life. So funny but so heartbreaking at the same time. Incredible that Sean Baker seems to be getting the attention he has deserved for so long but why has it taken this long?!? Anyway happy to be here…

Poor Things 2023
A hideously beautiful journey through the world of Bella Baxter. SO MUCH to like about this film: Emma Stone’s best ever performance (?) and characterisation of Bella, her costume changes as her mind develops, her innocent dominance over all men she comes across, Mark Ruffalo expertly playing an absolute prick, the dream-like, otherworldly visuals, the music ahhhh.
It’s not for everyone but I love stepping into Lanthimos’ demented, explorative world and am eternally grateful his movies are able to be made in such a turbulent era of cinema.
