  Sing Sing 2023

  ★★★½ Watched 21 Mar 2025

  Glad none of them fell off the stage. Ha ha. That would’ve been embarrassing…

  As someone who loves theatre and acting, this is so darn sweet and warms my heart. Gentle, compassionate, human, and beautifully made, with a perfect score to match. Kind of like a rebranded version of Dead Poets Society if it were set in prison. But, I just wasn’t as locked in as I would’ve liked.

  I wouldn’t even be here without you beloved. Thank you for everything.

  The Apprentice 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 19 Mar 2025

  Had absolutely no clue what to expect from this, but I’m actually really impressed. Surprisingly very funny without ever dimming or shying away from the sinister inhumanity on display. Confident in style and tone with exceptional performances, this is one I won’t be forgetting any time soon, for better or for worse.

  Anora 2024

  ★★½ Watched 22 Dec 2024

  This is a front-runner for Best Picture? Fucking hell. The most overhyped film of the year.

  Bend It Like Beckham 2002

  ★★★½ Rewatched 09 Dec 2024 2

  An Indian girl supporting Manchester United even though she’s from London… sounds all too familiar. Quintessentially British with a perfect soundtrack that mixes cultures together, and so many brilliant one-liners, but “Jess, I’m Irish. Of course I understand what that feels like,” still kills me to this day. It’s got to be THE most unintentionally funny line I’ve ever come across. Sorry Jonathon Myers for never fully appreciating your game, and to Gurinder Chanha for never recognising you as the icon you are. Fun fact: this was the first ever Western-made film to air on TV in North Korea, slay I guess ?
