  Beeswax 2009

  Watched 19 Mar 2025

  Crazy how real this feels, with such natural and real dialogue and moments. It’s hard to tell what was improvised and not if any. As with many good mumblecore. There are no “movie moments”. But it’s also like modern day Cassavetes and woody Allen. I thought the ending was abrupt but actually perfect

  Holy crap. As with a lot of bong joon ho movies the writing, symbolism, acting, comedy, social commentary are all there. And somehow he makes something new again. People expecting something like parasite will be let down a bit. But going with an open mind you can take a lot from this movie. With worldviews and political states that are merely just reflections of the human race. Very much a satire, at one point I even thought of the classic…

  Phenomenal. Favorite movie of the year easily. Most entertaining movie on all fronts.

  With dialogue that’s just so fluid and natural. This is a great example of modern characters written realistically. Absolutely loved it

  I Walked with a Zombie 1943

  What just happened

  Honestly a lot to unpack in its short run length. Mixed with an indigenous aspect I’ve never really seen before. Whole thing felt like a dream. By the end of it I just wanted to watch it again
