  Fun, eventually gets to the action you want. Spoiler: cops out at the end.

  State of Siege 1972

  ★★★★★ Watched 11 Jul 2024

  How does neocolonialism continue to brutalize the global south? How sexy is urban guerrilla warfare? One of my favorite movies.

  Sorry to Bother You 2018

  ★★★★★ Watched 11 Jul 2024

  Saw this and then took my coworkers to it in two cohorts during a union drive. One of the recent movies that feels extremely made for people of my generation with ny cultural reference points and my politics. Not that it’s niche. But if this movie was made in the 80s or 90s, I would’ve watched it everytime the heavily censored version was broadcast on TBS or TNT.

  Z 1969

  Tied as one of my favorite movies of all time. Still perhaps the best anatomy of fascism and how fascist movements move to power. Also a must watch for anyone who wants to see a great movie influenced by Battle of Algiers.
