The Last Temptation of Christ

1988

★★★★ Liked Watched

I found this film ... genuinely moving ... it was kooky, spooky, transcendent, absurd and pulpy all at once! The whacky casting makes for performances that consistently defy expectations, it merges trashy historical literature, new york experimental cinema and surrealist mystery to great avail - untenable yet works so well I say!!

Oppenheimer

2023

★★★★ Watched

Art is dead. No but genuinely, just give me pure exposition. I no longer care for subtle messaging or deft camera work or nuanced characters or impressive compositions. Form is officially in the bin. Enough! From now on, didactics. Nothing else. That is all I have time for. No more art, thank you!

How to Have Sex

2023

★★★★ Watched

was not prepared for the visceral bodily response unleashed by David Zowie's 2015 'House Every Weekend' in the context of party package holidays, akin to cognitive waterboarding - legit cried 10 mins in

Party Girl

1995

★★★★ Liked Watched

Really relate to this as a former party girl on the bibliography-adjacent career pipeline. Hoping the glass ceiling shatters and Mary wears her gorgeous silly outfits to library school!!!
