Me and Earl and the Dying Girl 2015
“Well, Greg, I think that it just means that even after somebody dies, you can... you can still keep learning about them, you know, their life. It can keep unfolding itself to you just as long... just as long as you pay attention to it.”
Memory is a funny thing. We remember people in our lives based on how they've interacted with us or at what moment we've met them. Sometimes, we don’t even pay attention to who they truly…Translated from by -
First Man 2018
" I don't know what space exploration will uncover, but I don't think it'll be exploration just for the sake of exploration. I think it'll be more the fact that it allows us to see things that maybe we should have seen a long time ago but haven't been able to until now."
This quote at the beginning eventually metastasizes what the film is trying to say.
After Whiplash and La La Land, First Man is a huge departure for Damien…

Man of Steel 2013
Revisiting Man of Steel after some time left me with the same feeling—conflicted about how I view the film.
There are moments of absolute brilliance, yet at the same time, it feels so excessive.
Watching Superman take his first flight transported me back to the moment I first saw the film in theaters, completely in awe. The immersive way that sequence was captured remains a wonder—something Snyder failed to replicate in his subsequent films. Such a shame.

Hot Fuzz 2007
Hot Fuzz is one of my favorite films of all time. The way Edgar Wright takes all the excess of Hollywood action blockbusters and places the entire setup in a small British village—along with classic British satirical treatment—is absolutely genius.
Nicholas Angel is the perfect hero, as perfect as every trope is a plot armor. He has done every daredevil activity as an officer and has been in such intense, high-stakes scenarios that he puts others to shame. But then,…

Nadaaniyan 2025
Finished watching the film.
I walk around aimlessly in my drawing room. The pace of my steps intensifies, my heartbeat crosses 120 BPM, and a white light appears—everything around me dissipates into particles.
I check the time.
It’s 9 PM. Nadaaniyan is on Netflix. I don’t remember watching it. I don’t remember watching it. I am bored. I press play.
I frantically walk across the room.
120 BPM.
White light comes over.It’s 9 PM. I press play.
WTF—Wednesday, Thursday,…

Superboys of Malegaon 2024
Superboys of Malegaon is a testament to the fact that when you make a good film, it stands the test of time. Writer baap hota hai.
We watch the classics after many years because the story or the craft resonates with us. It makes us leave our reality so that we can experience someone’s vision—to maybe escape or see their truth in a way that we can resonate with.
Reema Kagti captures the spirit of the documentary and brings that…
