  Portrait of a Lady on Fire 2019

  ★★★★ Watched 31 Mar 2025

  Beautiful. The incidental soundtrack of creaking floors and rustling fabrics is a feast for the ears. The emotion in the last moments stayed with me for a very long time after it ended.

  Stowaway 2021

  ★★★ Watched 31 Mar 2025

  I enjoyed the quiet thoughtful nature of a serious movie without true evil intent. I kept waiting for the villain to appear but it never happened the way I was prepared for. Set design was really gorgeous. 
  I didn’t care for the ending. Childless unmarried women can only find true life purpose  if they die?  I would have preferred an improbably cliche miracle over Anna Kendrick simply sitting down in a solar storm and accepting her fate.

  Prey 2022

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 07 Aug 2022

  Girl power sounds too cheap for a movie this fun and aesthetically pleasing and intense and creepy but… girl power!! And, a pretty great dog.  👍🏻👍🏻 ♥️
