The Banshees of Inisherin 2022
Wonderful acting, skillful cinematography. A very funny film. And a strong depiction of how one person's demons can possess others. Not quite sure how to describe it but the blanket sense of despair I felt at the end of the film just didn't feel very nuanced. It just felt like an all encompassing bluh. Maybe that was the intention, and at least the sister was smart enough to get out.

The Worst Person in the World 2021
A skillful film in terms of acting and script. Although it felt a bit sluggish at times, it drew me in enough - and I bought into the characters enough - to deliver a strong emotional punch at the end. Not a huge fan of the chapters titles, it takes me out of the illusion every time. The cheating scene was great.

Force Majeure 2014
A lovely and entertaining meditation on masculinity. Some powerful moments if a bit unsurprising ending. Unless of course Ebba pretended to need help, in which case, I like that better. An important message to myself, masculinity is about honesty, not invincibility; about owning our faults, our mistakes, instead pretending they don’t exist.

Triangle of Sadness 2022
I was genuinely entertained throughout. Though the satire on fashion, gender dynamics, etc. felt slightly obvious, they were surprising enough and acted well enough to be satisfying. The vomit scenes were classics.
