  Trainspotting 1996

  ★★★★★ Watched 17 Mar 2025

  so incredibly visceral. i can’t think of a better word to describe it. i was nauseous through half the film but i think it made me more compassionate for them all. my favorite detail was how they complained about the downfall of musicians and people in general and then used those exact musicians for the soundtrack.

  The Substance 2024

  ★★★★½ Watched 16 Oct 2024

  i wish the movie ended after qualley tried to use the substance again. everything after felt tacky, but still really entertaining and campy. i understand why lana wrote a song for that girl tho. damn. both actresses were so pretty. i also felt like this was so impactful on my self image to be honest. a hard watch but it hit home.

  Blue Velvet 1986

  ★★★★★ Watched 19 Jan 2025 1

  i watched this movie because i hadn’t seen a Lynch movie before and i thought it was appropriate, and was absolutely shocked to discover several things:

  -the main characters name is jeffrey, his father is thomas, and their last name is beaumont

  -david lynch designed my favorite club in paris 

  -david lynch was somehow even cooler than i imagined
