  I'm Still Here 2024

  ★★★★★ Watched 23 Nov 2024

  é preciso dar um jeito, meu amigo… 

  que tragédia familiar, que mulher resiliente, que período desastrosotenebrosovergonhoso da nossa história. nunca mais. 

  foi só Fernanda Montenegro aparecer na tela, vazia e perdida, pra eu começar a chorar e não parar mais. 
  a vontade que tenho é de agradecer a todos os envolvidos por uma obra tão sensível em sua brutalidade. 

  e pra não dizer que não falei das flores: é Brasil no oscar e Fernanda Torres best actress winner, uma reparação histórica—e pessoal. 🇧🇷

  The Menendez Murders: Erik Tells All 2017

  ★★★½ Watched 26 Sep 2024

  insightful, emotional, heartbreaking at times. one of the many docs i’ve watched about this case.
  it’s difficult but so important to hear from Erik himself about everything he went through and the life afterwards.
  can’t wait to watch the new netflix doc (hopefully they’ll redeem themselves after Monsters) next monday where the two of them will speak together for the very first time.

  In the Realm of the Senses 1976

  ★★★ Watched 31 Mar 2024

  “a girl like you can stab a man’s heart without a knife, huh?“

  pre-war japan shows sympathy for the devil.
  
  what a visually stunning film! the actors commitment to such raw roles are impressive, specially Eiko Matsuda’s, who has an amazing performance as the protagonist Sada.

  it’s based on shocking true events that took place in mid-30s japan, when Sada Abe and her boss Kichi started an affair that escalated much too quickly, and led to a tragic end—and an unexpected response from the population.
