Now that I've published this I think my biggest regret is not putting Past Live higher honestly.

Dominic Sessa was great in The Holdovers. He had a million things going on beneath the surface. He was quietly scared and angry yet he yearned for connection. Canāt wait to see more of him.

Anatomy of a Fall is exceptional. The nuance in that film and the role language plays really made me think about it for so long afterwards. No bombastic stuff. Just one to really think about.

Killers Of The Flower Moon blew me away. I haven't been so saddened and enraged by a film in a long time. You put it best when you said the overarching tone is "anguish". Such a haunting, powerful story, and an important one to be told at that - and the execution of said story is practically flawless - Tightly written, well paced, and beautifully acted - Scorsese really outdid himself with this one. And that's saying something considering its Martin Scorsese.

One movie I would highly recommend is "All of Us Strangers." Perfect double feature to go along with Past Lives.

As a Puerto Rican, our cinema is underappreciated in our own country and almost unknown to the outside world, even if we have incredible filmmakers and gems of movies. But this year, Puerto Rican cinema has reached a milestone with two movies in particular that I enjoyed and I would like to share with all of you: 1). Ćrase una vez en el Caribeā it is a jĆbaro drama set in the tone of a japanese samurai movie all mixed in with an anti-colonial narrative and beautiful cinematography; and 2). La Peceraā a drama movie set in Vieques, that just like Cayo (2005), sheds light into the struggle of a post-US Navy Marina Vieques but in a more sensible and faithful way, imbedding an anti-colonial narrative by creating a metaphor of colonialism being like a cancerāVieques being the region with the highest cancer rate in Puerto Rico due to military bombingsāthat ravages the colonizedās body just like it happens to the main character in the movie. These are excellent movies with probably one of best cinematography Iāve seen in our cinemaās history, both carrying compelling stories that I genuinely wish everyone could witness them.

In the past few weeks I watched both the new Godzilla movie and American fiction and they both almost made me cry. They were able to create characters that feel like real people, and showed real pain.

The Iron Claw was easily my favorite film of the year. Such deep and complex characters. Paired with a story that, despite the theatrics of wrestling, felt extremely grounded and real.

Poor Things was one of the best theater experiences I've had all year. It was a packed crowd, and they were down for how bizarre, goofy, and horny the movie was.
234 |
My wife and I saw Beau is Afraid in theaters twice and its stuck with us. Its a film where any time after I see it my sleep and my thoughts are warped or at least influenced by the filmās imagery and ponderings. Its so bleak that it comes around and becomes hysterical, by design. I LOVE it and still do.
It was also fun to go to a movie with a loved one and laugh our asses off. Nobody else in theater seemed to really āgetā it which is a bummer. I also think the dream sequence in the forest is genuinely one of the more beautiful and powerful moments in a film this year.
I hope more people give it a shot.

The portrayal of a toilet cleaner in "Perfect Days" by Wim Wenders was nothing short of poetic. Koji Yakusho's remarkable performance alone makes it shine and deserving of all the recognition it has garnered.

Went and saw the Holdovers on a whim, and it just blew me away. I honestly thought it was one of the most well-paced movies Iāve seen in a while. I loved the contrast between the school setting, which felt cold and impersonal, to scenes like the house party or Maryās living room that felt warm and familiar. It never did too much or too little, the emotional and humorous aspects were so well balanced in my opinion. It became an instant classic for me, and I will definitely be watching this movie during future holiday seasons.

Wow, your transition between Dream Scenario and Anatomy of a Fall was so insightful that I thought it was the same movie at first! This is why I love your commentary and analysis; you see things that the average person just doesn't see!

The Holdovers is going to be one of those movies where I'll watch every Christmas. Such an amazing film with a career best Paul Giamatti. Better thank Alexander Payne for making a future Christmas classic š¤

Really enjoyed this video! Past lives impacted me so much, THAT shot while they are facing each otherā¦ I wish I could see the movie again for the first time. Havenāt seen Poor Things yet but I so look forward to it, I loved The favourite and The Lobster so you got my hyped for the weirdness! Canāt wait.

Poor Things blew my neon petticoat off in theatres, and I consider The Killing of a Sacred Deer my favourite movie. I need to watch it again a few times but I think it might be better. What you say is so true though: even watching Dogtooth and The Favourite etc. Poor Things is STILL wildly original.
