  Brief Encounter 1945

  ★★★★ Watched 15 Mar 2025

  Melodramatic but surprised me by its depth of feeling. I expected something goofier or more morally driven. Ambient coal everywhere. If I time traveled to 1940s England I would be like “dude what did you just say?” That one woman with the flower hat could just talk. What would this have been like without the voiceover?

  Pier Paolo Pasolini - Agnès Varda - New York - 1967 2022

  ★★★½ Watched 12 Jan 2024

  Vibing on the last year of my thirties, it struck me how Pasolini mentioned he didn’t get into filmmaking until he was 40.

  The Batman 2022

  ★★½ Watched 15 Mar 2022

  The guy next to me kept falling asleep. The rumbly parts were fun with the Regal RPX. I had the riddler themed cocktail because it was purple.
