  Sound of Metal 2019

  ★★★★ Watched 17 Mar 2021

  The subtlety was fantastic. It made this film even more real. Riz Ahmed's performance was raw, very vulnerable. A masterclass in acting.

  ★★★★ Watched 16 Mar 2021

  For someone relatively new to the film industry, Adarsh Gourav has done a phenomenal job. Played his role just right. There wasn't anything absolutely mind-blowing, but it was a great performance.

Not too sure about this, but I probably didn't connect 'cause of the complete English voiceover.

  The Lighthouse 2019

  ★★★★ Watched 09 Mar 2021

  This one left me utterly baffled in the end. After reading up a little, I realised that this film has the ability to fit into multiple interpretations and leaves much to speculation. Wasn't really moved by any of the scenes which people found 'disturbing'. Made me think for sure, yes. But I didn't recoil in disgust. Loved the darkness and intensity. Definitely needs a re-watch.

  Edit 1: The seagull smashing scene did surprise me quite a bit. Enacted, shot and edited to perfection.
