  Three Colours: Red 1994

  ★★★★½ Watched 21 Apr 2011

  This is Kieślowski at the top of his game: a subtle meditation on fate, coincidence, fraternity and parallel lives. Moving, deep and absolutely beautiful.

  Yojimbo 1961

  ★★★★ Watched 27 Jan 2011

  Visually stunning and darkly comic, Yojimbo is another masterpiece brought by the Kurosawa-Mifune duo. This is also one of the most influential and entertaining films of all time. Without Yojimbo, westerns wouldn't be the same today.

  Yokai Monsters: Spook Warfare 1968

  ★★½ Watched 08 Jan 2024

  Lighter, funnier and filled with a lot more oddball creatures than the previous entry, this one felt like hanging out with your best friends. If your best friends were a mischievous human-like turtle guy and a monster that looks like a one-eyed umbrella who jumps on one leg.

  Yokai Monsters: 100 Monsters 1968

  ★★½ Watched 08 Jan 2024

  The eerie wide shot of the yōkai's parade to the forest is so good it only makes it even sadder that the rest of the film is sort of a slow but hot mess that unsuccessfully tries to balance its feudal politics with awesome monster fun. The one-eyed umbrella tongue yōkai is the best!
