  Correctly portrays cops as corrupt losers.
  Correctly portrays how oppressive border policy drives labour exploitation.

  The Birdcage 1996

  ★★★★½ Rewatched 14 Feb 2025

  Incredible Valentine's Day film!!! A laugh-out-loud romp and a half. Gene Hackman, Nathan Lane, and Robin Williams are the obvious standouts, but I think that's because (like in the musical) the women aren't given much to work with. There's dated bits, but so many of the jokes hold up. The visual comedy of the film is simply outstanding, with lush and ridiculous production design from THE director-to-be of The Cat in the Hat.

  Half star off only because of Val…

  Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me 1992

  ★★★½ Watched 10 Nov 2024

  David Lynch knew Twin Peaks the series was missing something he could only deliver in a film. Three things, to be precise. Swearing, boobs and monkeys.
