Queer 2024
This is one of those films where the final third is a completely different film to the first two thirds which are just a not-very-good film! Neither character was particularly compelling (and I am easily compelled) and the latter third was confusing and also disgusting and just unpleasant to watch? It felt like the director actually just wanted to make an “thought-provoking” artsy short film that would play on a loop in an art gallery and I wish he had…

Rope 1948
Oooh la la, this was a real pearl from the past! Very tense, quite funny, and extremely clever in its writing. This is based on a play and it totally grips you like a live action performance would.

Also I just love Jimmy Stewart 😭😭😭
