  Mask 1985

  ★★★★★ Watched 30 Mar 2025

  I knew that Mask was a famous tearjerker but I had no idea it was sweet tears. The message of the film is fantastic which is there shouldn’t be one, because these characters have nothing to prove. It’s one of the most profound films I’ve ever seen about a character who’s been ostracised from society because of their differences. The central characters in this film embody this brilliantly by having their own lives, their own demons, and their own passions.…

  Flow 2024

  Watched 02 Mar 2025 4

  Spiritual Ice Age - filmmaking that’s a blend of Alice in Wonderland, Studio Ghibli and Watership Down. Really liked it, and was super impressed that it was able to hold my attention without any dialogue whatsoever. 

  Also I loved how the water was animated.

  The Zone of Interest 2023

  Watched 22 Feb 2024

  Just needed 20 more minutes and this would have been a perfect film for me. Regardless though, what’s here was incredibly engaging. At this point World War II and the Holocaust are such heavily documented events in cinema that it’s hard to imagine someone today being able to create something fresh and relevant, but Glazer does this in spades. The Zone of Interest as a whole is one big experiment, so while it’s edges may be a bit rough or not exactly landing, I really respect the boldness of Glazers direction and the whole creative team. Will definitely revisit.
