  Crimes of the Future 1970

  ★★ Watched 18 Mar 2025

  Well, this didn’t work for me but what I find positive about it is that it imparted touches of Cronenberg’s trademark and showed how fearlessly unflinching he has been since his early career.

  Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles 1975

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 16 Mar 2025

  An incisive portrait of:
  - the terror of the endless cycle of repetitive tasks
  - the bleakness of the mundane
  - the sacrifices mothers/women bear, often without the appreciation they deserve.
  Chantal Akerman's skillfully crafted masterpiece. This is my addictive, endlessly rewatchable film and my mind keeps returning to it.

  Goodbye, Dragon Inn 2003

  ★★★★ Watched 25 Feb 2025

  Even with few dialogues, it says more than enough.
  Cinema may be fading, but its magic endures. It remains an irreplaceable experience, binding us together through shared emotions. I should have watched this film in the cinema.
