Deranged horse girl shit

The atmosphere. The energy. The hope. The funnnn
]]>
Feels like Miyazaki’s magnum opus
]]>
Debauchery!

I will not forget it

]]>
The prettiest horror I ever did see
]]>
I want those stockings with the bows so bad
]]>
Beautiful stop motion animation. Incredible world building. Plot a little loose but I don’t mind because Guillermo
]]>
Fun and mean and very entertaining
]]>
One to think on. A marriage falling apart to come back together.
]]>
Puzzling early Fellini. Nostalgic and comedic and tragic in its own way
]]>
Protofeminist noir about a woman searching for the clues to clear her boss from a murder charge. Excellent dialogue, beautiful shots of foggy New Yorks nights
]]>
Precious. Potentially anti-capitalist?
]]>
Weird Irish shenanigans

]]>
Deeply weird. Deeply unsatisfiying ending.
]]>
Winona Ryder is excellent. Escalates quickly and maybe there are some loose ends left over but fun and fashionable nonetheless.
]]>
Campy excellence
]]>
So much smarter than it first appears. Heavily queer coded. Takes on misogyny and sapphic friendship and abuse of women in a campy, early 2000s bubblegum aesthetic played straight. One to rewatch.
]]>
Interesting that it was written by a lesbian feminist director. Lots to unpack. 3 left alive.
]]>
Rewatched. The set design is just so compelling and exciting. Maybe the ending is sort of eh, but it’s fun.
]]>
Gorgeous cinematography and costuming. Wish there was more written about it online-definitely worth a rewatch. The scene where they put the glass bowl over his face! Crazy!
]]>
Started strong but turned our way less interesting than the style and premise promised.
]]>
Am now convinced that Nic Cage is a good actor
]]>
Very Jane Eyre. Extraordinarily costuming and set design. A period film in which the period in question only exists in your imagination. This movie stresses me out.
]]>
Excellent shots of San Fran. Really gorgeous and beautiful score. Didn’t end as dramatically as I wanted but a fun ride.
]]>
Reads like a 70’s porno and I loved it. Fashion was iconic, not stellar acting but great fun
]]>
Confounding, to say the least. I believe that not only is it leftist but also a condemning critique of gender roles under capitalism. But I need to do more reading. Funny and horrifying in turns. Worth a rewatch.
]]>
Made me contemplate emotional complexities I never considered before. Fun and wild. Extraordinarily strange love triangle. All the drama in a slow burn French way
]]>
Gorgeous costumes! Beautiful sets! So fun!
]]>
I loved it! Great dialogue. Lots of personality and a very fun premise- woman with cruel, possessive husband falls in love with a headwaiter one night in Paris. They spend the rest of the film trying to get back to each other. Great pacing and quite romantic.
]]>
Pretty but tired plot and problematic tropes.
]]>
Gorgeous camera work. Fascinating metatextual piece. Star studded cast.
]]>
Deceptively simple plot hidden under convoluted double agent trappings. Funny and weird and exciting! Took me about 20 minutes to get it but once I did very enjoyable
]]>
Glamor glamor glamor. The men are shitty assholes. The women are stylish. The design is compelling. Glossy, upper middle class tragedy.
]]>
Wow beautiful cinematography and sparkling dialogue. Tragic ending. One to think on for awhile
]]>
Crazy final scene! Interesting relationship to disability and alternative communities.
]]>
Unbelievable gorgeous cinematography. So endeared toward the titular village. Slow but lots of interesting dialogue.
]]>
Amazing visuals and special effects. Excellent acting. Strange politics.
]]>
Went places I could never have anticipated! Some of the wildest fight scenes I’ve ever seen. Genuinely moving. Had me on the edge of my seat.
]]>
Wow. What happens to Otsu? Does he ever know happiness? That final fight scene. Akemi’s descent and redemption arcs. The bandit sequence. A fitting conclusion to the trilogy
]]>
