Feels like it was cut down to the barest minimum to be honest lots of inferences needed. I loved this. Seems to be thematically staunchly against technology and instead argues for body connection and community as a salve to capitalist idealist evilness? I thought, perhaps interestingly astute as it was filmed before Elon and trump maximised their joint slay but what do I know. I think the plot is some how not fleshed out enough but two characters could have been fully cut but I like it so much idc

A Real Pain 2024
Unbelievable. Beautifully directed and beautifully written, crests dangerously close to successfully acknowledging the absurd subconscious of agony and desire that animate our consciousness. Reminds me of that Kae tempest quote ‘you see the tragedy and pain in a person you have never met is present in your nightmares and in your pull towards despair’. This film gets close to the nature of pain through generational trauma, wide scoped tragedy and also just the absurd agony of being alive. I can’t believe how smart this movie is

The Last Temptation of Christ 1988
Scorsese I was unfamiliar with your game. The writing in this is also fantastic ‘God loves me. I know he loves me. I want him to stop’ and ‘if I was a woodcutter, I’d cut. If I was a fire I’d burn. But I’m a heart and I love’! Metal as fuck. This is not something I would’ve thought I’d like bc it’s old, directed by Martin scorcese and a Jesus movie. watched it for an essay but LOVED IT!…

Saltburn 2023
One star because I want to watch it again and it was beautiful. Beautiful gowns. And half of one because it was pretty erotic. Bath drain licking was hard as FUCK Barry Keoghan you will always be famous. But.
This was one of the stupidest films I’ve ever seen. Emerald Fennell doesn’t trust her audience with ANYTHING and overexplains the ending to the point where you’re more confused than you’d be if she’d just ended it 15/20 minutes earlier.
