  The Green Ray 1986

  ★½ Watched 09 Aug 2024

  This movie is very realistic in a certain sense, but its realism could only be prized by a true sicko. I know Delphine. I hate Delphine. I don't want to know more about Delphine. I want to chuck her beret into the sea.

  ★★★★ Watched 08 Aug 2024

  A poignant, multifaceted character study. This is a movie of definite accomplishment and matchless subtlety. Here, desire is the subject, indicated through . . . sorry. It gave me a lot to think about.

  ★★★★★ Watched 31 Jul 2024

  Barry Lyndon for me is a 5. No questions there. A picaresque masterpiece. Picaresque masterpiece. Beautiful. I don't know. I don't have anything to say. Picaresque masterpiece.
