  Lost Highway 1997

  ★★★★½ Watched 22 Jan 2025

  David Lynch was one of the greatest anti-sexist filmmakers ever and cinema is so, so much worse off without him.

  Love on a Leash 2011

  ½ Watched 04 Sep 2024

  Man as animal — a concept explored by many but perfected by few. Image repeats and then becomes fragments. Scorsese-esque flashbacks and dialogue that become Lynchian through their delivery and the power of their presentation. What a steaming pile of horse shit

  The Passion of Joan of Arc 1928

  ★★★★★ Watched 03 Jan 2025

  "You have burnt a saint!"

  Unbelievable. The final scenes are harrowing – the heavenly intents of the Church are revealed to be contradictions, only resolved in hellfire.
