Parasite 2019
I’m a little lost for words.
I’ve been meaning to watch Parasite, well effectively since it came out and received glowing review after glowing review. I never got round to it. Well five/six years on, I have. It was more than worth the wait.
The camera movement this film possesses is unlike anything I’ve seen. It’s so sharp, so exact; it moves through sequences in a way akin to the design of the house itself; the house becomes a character…

Sound design was incredible, and the set and costume design was very well thought through. Really impressed by the small details. Unfortunately it’s let down by a slow first hour and a slightly rushed last half hour, with some weird jumping between settings and imperfect pacing. It’s also not particularly scary? Especially for a horror story and remake of this magnitude?
I loved elements, the complete painting was a few brush strokes from completion.

All the President's Men 1976
WOW. WOW. WOW. I love journalism. I love journalism films. Jason Robards is absolutely fantastic. I love watching these films with my parents.
