Come and See 1985
An invitation to carry the dead, the historical memory and the loss of innocence in our shoulder. May it never repeat itself.

The Thin Red Line 1998
Not an anti-war film but a meditation on war, I read somewhere.
List all of Malick's strengths in filmmaking and put them in a war film: male sensitivity, the conscious voiceovers, the struggles of existentialism in the characters, a broad sense of spirituality, and beautifully inch-perfect crafted frames.
If there's an afterlife, it exists after watching this film; it tore my soul apart like a doll while still almost convincing me of a soothing paradise.
We can only imagine the counterfactual: releasing Saving Private Ryan in a different year and The Thin Red Line receiving the attention it deserved and still deserves.Translated from by -
Poor Things 2023
A striking portrait of the journey of a creation-woman, Poor Things depicts the discovery of identity, sex, pity, class consciousness, gender dynamics, humanity and much more.
I grew up in a very Catholic household and it delighted me to see my mother gleefully engaging with the film. It speaks volumes about the on-point artistic choices, although maybe graphic and raw, the steam-punk aesthetics and the God-human dynamics, it did not bother my mother even an inch. The message stuck in our heads for longer than expected, like a fine tune would.Translated from by
