Every time I saw the little desert mouse come on screen I started hysterically wailing "Muad'dib! Muad'dib!" The other people in the theater shhh'd me, so I killed them.

The Grand Budapest Hotel 2014
You see, there are still faint glimmers of civilization left in this barbaric slaughterhouse that was once known as humanity. Indeed that's what we provide in our own modest, humble, insignificant... oh, fuck it.
I honestly didn't think it was possible for me to love this movie more, but between whenever my last viewing was and this one I had discovered the writings of Stefan Zweig, both accidentally and independently from Grand Budapest.
I discovered his novella Chess Story in…

Boiling Point 1990
Really enjoyed the middle third where Kitano himself showed up and and it turned into the absolute worst hangout session. Absolutely love the karaoke scene. Shame Kitano's character was so mysoginistic, soured on him pretty quickly once that developed
I'm starting to really get a grasp on Kitano's style. He likes long picturesque shots and a very relaxed, almost lazy pace that gets interrupted by these brief bursts of violence without any prior warning, but then goes back to serene…

The Double Life of Véronique 1991
So much of this movie is built upon its gorgeous melancholy dreamy mood, I loved it. Might be my new favorite Kieślowski movie, but it's definitely my favorite Zbigniew Preisner score. I went and bought a copy of that before even sitting down to review the movie. Absolutely enraptured while watching this, the most gorgeous cinematography and visuals of all of the Kieślowski movies I've seen. I keep writing and deleting sentences to try and articulate things, but it feels as though when you try to describe a dream to someone the morning after. You have to be swept away in the moment to understand.

Clerks III 2022
In 2020 I was working behind the counter at a starbucks when a customer came in wearing a Mooby's mask. I commented on her mask, but having recently seen Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, I had a foot-in-mouth moment when I added "I remember when Kevin Smith made good movies." The woman was a genuine fan and was both shocked and upset I would say something like that. Since then I've honestly felt bad for saying that to her, and…
