Idiot musician who mostly watches TV, trying to build an attention span. Pedestrian taste.

Dog Day Afternoon 1975
Sidney Lumet is a fucking professional. Unimpeachable director overshadowed by maybe the most lit performance in history. The whole cast is bulletproof. Penelope Allen should've been in ten thousand movies. Massive guts to sit in a bank for two hours of film only to end in what feels like an instant.

Impossible Horror 2017
Blood and guts aside, this movie is about making a new friend you're kind of gay with. I love it, and I love that it exists. Thank you, Justin.

Raging Bull 1980
Nothing has ever been sweatier. Growing up I always thought "I could'a been a contender" was this and not On the Waterfront, spent the whole movie waiting for it. Five Stars.

The Wind Rises 2013
The most sweetly heroic man imaginable can only find work in service of death and destruction. Let's take the sublime beauty of flight for granted; of what value is that beauty when employed to kill? What are ten good years in the service of an Empire? What can be done instead? Anyone who thought this was nationalist apologia should get a lobotomy. "The wind rises, we must try to live." Just because there's a period at the end doesn't mean it isn't a question.
