    crazy sentence to type but lorenzo st dubois as musical hitler was the best part of this entire movie

  • My Winnipeg

    My Winnipeg

    ★★★½

    i can't help but feel like i would've enjoyed this way more if the narration were any less annoying, it all felt a bit high school bad haiku poetry sometimes

    normally i love experimental documentaries but this just didn't land as much as i expected it to, it still has some undeniable qualities though

    Nosferatu

    good directing from eggers (albeit overly eager and lacking his usual touch) and good performances but i’m not too sure about the script and obvious stylistic choices 

    It’s like they wanted to make a dracula movie and call it nosferatu. And i know they have the same source material but still, they tried too hard to turn orlok into dracula character-wise (overtly sexual, talks a lot, not really shrouded in mystery), and that kind of defeats the point of making…

    ★★★★

    there was no jazz, or storyline and some of the musical numbers weren’t very good, but it was a blast visually and performance-wise for the better part of the film
