To Die For 1995
i think gus van sant’s method of filmmaking isn’t for me… i’m always unsatisfied. he plays up certain themes so much that the viewer feels either patronized or especially corned-out. it’s too american, too hollywood. you know what i mean? he’s ahead of his time in that he treats the audience like a bunch of idiots who can’t read between the lines, something i’m always complaining about with every 20s film i see. i can appreciate it’s style but otherwise whatever. it didn’t piss me off so it’s just okay. i don’t fall into the girlboss killer trap anymore.

Pumpkin 2002
a level of offensively bold that only the 2000s could reach. it's hilariously uncomfortable and raises a lot of questions that i don't think people today are willing or able to ask about consent and the general public's (in many cases, not so) hidden disgust with disabled people. such a good movie.
