Parasite 2019
Counting this a new watch since I watched the b&w version.
Genuinely tho, nothing new to say about the story of the film that hasn't been said and repeated 1000 times in the last 5 years. It's good, not perfect.
I think it is genuinely more effective in monochrome as compared to in color, and some scenes are almost clearly lit for b&w rather than color.

Tokyo Story 1953
The filmic grammar in this one is different than I'm used to, and its slow pace clearly wants you to sit with the characters as they're going about the (initially) mundanity of a vacation visiting their adult children far from home.

The Great Rupert 1950
Truly one of the Christmas movies. Absolutely a film. There's at least three versions of the squirrel — a live one, a puppet, and a stop-motion taxidermy squirrel. Truly a movie. I don't remember anything that happened in it at all.
Would love to know why the title of the film is different in the poster here than the actual title.
