The forced sensuality of buttering a slice of toast. 
 
Beautiful location but I kept having visions of my grandmother making gagging gestures across the table from me.

Missing my cynical lover :’(

Had to finish painting a baby doll to fire my kiln so I followed this up with the latest episodes of the rehearsal… which is also turning out to be a rom com. Watching Nathan in a diaper choke on giant puppet breast milk has wiped my memory of any notable commentary I could make about Harry or Sally.

The vampires are klan but also concerned with wealth inequality and only one of them can fly but all of them are horny… really exciting creative writing homework for 6th grade civil rights curriculum.

Idk maybe someone can explain the appeal of this from an angle I haven’t considered like some epic analogy I didn’t grow up knowing about.

Mmm still not sold on chicken hurling.

Giulietta Masini has such an expressive face. Was cool to rewatch after seeing Anora because both characters face the challenge of believably switching between wide eyed dreamy awe and fits of defensive, desperate rage. Unlike Anora,  Cabiria steals the show. Both films expose how a man can treat a woman without consequence when her status doesn’t protect her. Sean Bakers other films have the desolation of neorealism.. maybe that’s why I liked them more… Blah blah blah, let’s talk about it.

Parker Posey schooling French guys on their relationships with their mothers 🫶

What this lacks in subtlety it makes up for in fantasy scenes of Penelope Cruz in drag reenacting old RAI performances I grew up watching on YouTube… who knew

One day a movie will use the trovatores aria beckoning Don Giovanni to his death and it will be appropriate and perfect.

I watched this with an Italian uncle who concluded every scene by exclaiming “shoot… and now he’s president”.

Wish I could roll up to Sm’union and order a Nehi and a Coney Island.

I think I would have bought this more if young hot had been a fantasy the whole time. Like you expect me to believe he went to a hotel room for 48 hours with boss, comes out of the (week long/ Christmas tree length) affair top of the interns, somehow rises to the occasion of forehead kissing Antonio Banderas during adult man panic attack and all the while never got a call from his mom?? 

Also maybe I have mean eyes but didn’t it seem like the costume designer put Nicole in garments that also look like they got facelifts?

Ugh. The 13 year old me that auditioned (and got rejected) from LaGuardia with you know I’m no good, is outraged.

Watched on the plane.. the next day I watched paddington and then I couldn’t which was which 🙈

Hard to comment because I felt like I was in a trance. The sounds and angles and closeups of fingers. Like watching things happen from inside a washing machine, but in a soothing way. I think the style made me understand less but feel more.

Inside voices and bowed heads, all the characters in this carry the weight of the subject matter in every line.. perhaps to an unrealistic extent? But there’s no distracting Cillian from the task at hand.. focused and monosyllabic. Respect

Voldemorts lesser known horcrux is a Catholic!

Weirder than it is sad (no tears), but witty throughout.

Just so good

Unhinged 

Painting tiles

I was kind of into the Buñuel style surreal dream sequences despite what felt like music for the intro of a planetarium show.. too bad those only took up 10 minutes of the movie.
