knives Poor Things and Everything Everywhere All at Once were 2 great ones of recent years, I just watched. Also, of other recent ones, Tár, Babylon and Pig were really good.
Ruby Finally got to see the Kaoru Abe/Izumu Suzuki biopic 'Endless Waltz' the other day, after years of trying to track it down on the web (turns out it's been on rarelust this whole time). Needless to say I loved it, as I've loved every Wakamatsu (the director) flick I've seen lately. Great little Keiji Haino/Fushitsusha cameo too.
Hercules Rockefeller I liked A Different Man. Stylistically it's great. Great soundtrack. The story is a little bit obvious. It's a spin on the Beauty and the Beast concept. Adam Pearson delivers a great performance.
Mayson Heber Big fan of the movie BRICK love the music to it and a movie that can keep my interests whenever I watch it.
Rapid Adapter I saw "Hard Truths" in the theater today. Mike Leigh is definitely the king of miserists. The misery was so unrelenting there was even a 20% walkout(only five people in the theater).
JessVex Drumstruck (1991). A short film about a glitchy rock n roll drummer in trashland. It was usually paired with Tetsuo: The Iron Man on vhs. [
Dodge Anora is Best Picture. It’s fantastic. That really long movie in the running? Junk. All other contenders might be good, at best.
peeblood I just watched Der Fan finally and it blew my fricken mind! The main girl is a real vibe. Also watched THE ALLINS on youtube for fun, their mom seems very sweet.
Ruby peeblood I love Der Fan! Always thought she'd make a great Halloween costume - i.e. to go butt naked toting a severed head. I watched Bergman's 'the Virgin Spring' last night. It was beautiful.
Gimmie Sopor peeblood I just watched Der Fan finally and it blew my fricken mind! The main girl is a real vibe. Holy macaroni! I had trouble getting to sleep last night, so I watched Der Fan. Gave me the same what the fuck-feeling as the Dutch movie The Vanishing and I can't stop thinking about it. Without a doubt one of the best films I have seen this year. Also have to re-evaluate my feelings about Rheingold, for reasons unknown I always wrote them off as a lightweight, but the OST is top notch.
JessVex Hundreds of Beavers (2024). This movie was certainly refreshing! It’s a wild black-and-white slapstick indy film, channeling Buster Keaton with non-stop, Rube Goldberg-style chaos. A drunken trapper battles crafty beavers in a relentless chain of gags, tricks, and pure silent-era mayhem. Fun shit.
peeblood Lincoln soundtrack was bangin. NDW perfection! Owned the soundtrack before I ever saw the movie so was nice to see it in context
terminalsunset Anyone else keep busy being a dork ass on Letterboxd? I even pay for it lol. I'm on there as DriveLukeJehu.
