Blow-Up 1966
Slow, plodding and methodical. Beautifully filmed, it almost seems like 2 movies. The first half a straight forward thriller. The second a surrealist journey into some key tenets of existenialism. Various theories indicate the strange nature of it's conclusion is related the film running out of budget. Regardless of the reason it makes for an interesting ride that leaves a lot to chew on.

Darby O'Gill and the Little People 1959
Rewatched in honor of Saint Patrick's Day. This film loomed large in my memory as I watched it many times as a child after recording it on VHS from "The Wonderful World of Disney" on TV. A delightful and fun bit of weird and sometimes too dark old Disney. One sequence near the end remains burned in my memory and it still disturbed me even to this very day.

Ed Wood 1994
A visually beautiful celebration of the outcasts and misfits of the world. Theres a special place in my heart for those who are passionate about making art but are very bad at it. The king of these people is Ed Wood and this tribute to his bizarre ouvre was touching and heartfelt.

Heretic 2024
Loved the first 30 minutes. I feel like the parts are greater than the whole. Hugh Grant is fantastic the other actors are excellent and it confirms how insufferable it is to be an athesist and preach your believes the same way religious groups preach theirs. Which is important for the jaded anti-theists like me. I think the answer the movie offers about the "one true religion" is anticlinatic if you'd been paying attention to the world around you but the answer to it is a sweet reminder of the good thats out there.
