Wow, what a breathtakingly beautiful film. Seeing this as a recovering addict (13 years clean and sober), I could relate to many things of the madness and sadness of addiction and to the beauty of life in recovery. And Saoirse Ronan is incredible. I have found my new favorite film…

The Revenant 2015
The Revenant is a cold, brutal and violent revenge story. It’s set in beautiful winter landscapes, was entirely shot with only the natural available light and is scored with a haunting soundtrack by Alva Noto and Ryuichi Sakamoto. Add Leonardo diCaprio’s Oscar winning performance to this and I got myself another great rewatch.

Blue Ruin 2013
After watching Jeremy Saulnier’s Rebel Ridge, I knew had to rewatch one of his older films, Blue Ruin.
And it’s funny who sometimes a rewatch can feel like a first watch. From minute one, you join Dwight on his violent quest for revenge after the man that killed his parents is set free from prison. What unfolds is an unpredictable suspense thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat till the last minute.
(Note: mentioned in a lot of the Blue Ruin reviews as a similar film ánd now added to my watchlist: the 1984 Coen Brothers debut film Blood Simple)
