set me free, 2023 (in-progress)

On year three of my priority list, I will be more strategic and disciplined and punctual (yeah no one here believes that). Presented without further ado: 30 films for 2023. Notes indicate reasons for their inclusion.

(Overall goal is to watch at least 3 films per week, because life is [un]happening.)

Previous Lists: film fondue, 2022

Ave. Rating: —

Boyfriends and Girlfriends
★★★★

First Rohmer was a disappointment. Second Rohmer was a sad delight. Third film should help form a concrete opinion: is he a hit-and-miss, or a one-time miss?

Claudine
★★★½

Selected film for more diversity.

Illumination
★★★½

For the enduring conflict between reason and emotion.

Of the Flesh
★★★½

Watch a film from my native country challenge. Directed by a woman.

The Piano
★★★★½

Recommended film. Directed by a woman.

Tokyo Sonata
★★★★

The only drama I need in my life is the drama genre.

Y Tu Mamá También
★★★★

A previous coworker kept discouraging me from watching this film. He refused to tell me why. Well, I am going to find out what the hullabaloo is.
