My indifference to men has shut me out from their company.
I live now in a world of ghosts, a prisoner of my dreams and fantasies.

8½ 1963
Guido Anselmi, Fellini and I have the exact same taste in women.
8 1/2 is an unrestrained exercise in self-reference and self-indulgence, a therapeutic session of a man with a lot of soul, made to be appreciated and cherished by other ensouled people.

The photography and lighting are perfect, the stage design and arrangement are flawless. Every interior shot is a carefully arranged work of art,…

Pig gives off serious Jesus vibes, reminding me of The King (2002) and an inverted version of John Wick. It's about meaning, loneliness, "faking it", and ultimately what makes us human.
The atmosphere is fantastic, the direction is solid, but Pig is all about the the strength of the…
