  2001: A Space Odyssey 1968

  ★★★★★ Watched 17 Mar 2024

  The universe begins where it ends and ends where it begins and ends and begins and ends and it’s both terrifying and wonderful to know that life ends where it begins

  beetje jammer wanneer het gesprek over de film interessanter is dan de film zelf

  A Complete Unknown 2024

  The only thing I knew before watching this was that Bob Dylan is a good painter. After watching this, that's still all I really know (and that I don't like his music, sorry!!). But maybe that's the point, maybe Bob Dylan will forever be an enigma who’s kind of an asshole to the women in his life and doesn’t seem fully human… or maybe we should stop making biopics because they're too focused on events and real life instead of the transcendental experience of being an artist. 

  So glad they never made a Jeff Buckley biopic—keep your greedy hands off him🫶💓

It’s hard to say goodbye, and The Boy and the Heron shows us that a farewell isn’t always literal. Forever grateful for Miyazaki, for his movies being a way to remember.

  Castle in the Sky 1986

  ★★★★½ Watched 21 Feb 2023 2

  To pass the time before the clock struck twelve a family friend would put on a Ghibli film. All of us kids sat there with eyes of wonder, looking at the dreamy world that is Miyazaki’s imagination. When I think of Studio Ghibli, I think of my childhood; of endless summers and winters, of oliebollen, hiding behind pillows when Yubaba appeared on the screen; I think of innocence that no adult should ever want to lose. And while the 21st century might…
