I got a new rug the other day, it’s a soft grey shag and it feels so soft under my feet and if someone pissed on it, well then I’d throw it out and I don’t think I’d live to tell a story as captivating and hilarious as this.

I bloody love the Coen’s, I don’t know how I haven’t consumed every single thing they’ve made. I really should. Each character was so effortless and fully realised. The cinematography, the art, the hyper realistic fantasy sequences-my mind is melting from the awesomeness dude. The subversion of the crime mystery genre (with its playful meandering dialogue and observations on nihilism, materialism, wealth, war, politics and morality) to subsequently portray a story with a convoluted story and a simple mundane ending is just downright fun.

I actually did not expect to like this movie as much as I did but I always find myself having the best time with the Coen brothers as they have a tenacious grasp on creating film that is entertaining but also beautifully crafted.

idk who’s gayer, simon or me every time jennifer garner came on screen? what a cute movie!!!

For a movie made in 1967, only a few months after interracial marriage was legalised with the Supreme Court ruling of the Loving vs Virginia court case, this movie is sincere and sweet. It is definitely dated but progressive for its time. I really enjoyed the similarities this shares with Jordan Peele’s Get Out and how its successor views this interracial story from a more haunting/ constructive lens. I am so glad I have finally watched a Sidney Poitier film. Hepburn as always is magnetic to watch.

There is a certain kind of love I feel towards Bengali women that I will never be able to put into words but watching this trilogy and the way Satyajit Ray writes them comes close to capturing that love. This was a perfect morality play and the writing is like seeing divinity.

sean baker finds hilarity in the deeply depressing. anora is a contradiction, she does not act and react in the way you expect her to, she is savvy and smart but still falls for the fantasy of escaping her circumstances. is she a fool? is she a romantic? are those things the same thing anyway? despite this enigmatic woman making choices you feel are not authentic to her disposition, she keeps you laughing as she shocks those around her with her indignant dignity. 

regarding the fact that this obviously fails the bechdel test, im not too sure that anora had strong female friendships that could have uplifted her or been strong enough to lift this narrative, her sister is apathetic to her and her best friend is a work colleague who is stuck in the same predicament. it made sense to show how men, especially the rich and privileged kind, pick up sex workers and abuse them as merely a takeaway service. behind the glamour and the comedy, the sobering reality breaks through.

this was such an entertaining but twisted cinderella story with tummy shaking slapstick comedy.

would’ve preferred to have just sat down and listened to all his albums but timmy was amazing as always 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

job searching and hearing, damn ma don’t you got a job, 

ma let me grab that iron and sewing needle coz  fuck them kids

daisy’s fits, daisy’s hair, daisy’s eyes, daisy’s smile, daisy’s voice - the struggle of whether i want to be her or be with her 

the angst and yearning in the show was pure fantasy fodder and i ate it up!

but it is camilla who is the apple of my eye, if only i could climb into the story and steal her from billy, i would.

I was hooked the whole time, what a compelling decision that was executed brilliantly. I love a moody and atmospheric ghost story. The chemistry between the family was so natural and brilliant, the only thing scarier than the mother and son’s relationship was that blonde boy’s acting.

When God created the concept of suspense, I think Stephan King was right there giving notes.

no aspect of this film was good

In another life, Florence and I have a beautiful kitchen and our baby is a sourdough starter called Clive, and we cook for each other and we are madly in love.

Andrew is so 🥺 in this, poor man.

the way i would fuck up a gol gappe competition 

the songs, as always, SLAP

surprisingly enjoyed this way more than i thought i would, just a fun time, ending was irritating, hate when movies set up their sequels but overall an entertaining and easy film to watch

One of my favourite films of all time. Time to commemorate this enigmatic auteur by watching the rest of his filmography but started off with this masterpiece I so dearly love. 

‘A man's attitude... a man's attitude goes some ways. The way his life will be.‘

the tonal whiplash of this movie is crazy but it’s still sandler being sandler

The way he better win that Oscar, I am so serious. I never care about awards but Kieran Culkin did that.

did subtle realistic nuanced acting exist before this movie oh my goodness

this movie viscerally moves me, every line feels like a pellet that absorbs into my skin with dizzying impact, LOVE IT
