85 77% Person to Person (2017) - Rated 11 Aug 2023
90 92% Greenberg (2010) - Rated 17 Jul 2023
"strong character piece insofar as it is purposefully repellant and cracked-mirror endearing."
90 92% Záhrada (1995) - Rated 25 Jun 2023
"Surrealist film with medieval episodes. There's enough thematic harmony between scenes and actions to do some interpretation, but there's no metanarrative to grasp onto."
90 92% Succession (2018) - Rated 26 May 2023
88 86% Me and You and Everyone We Know (2005) - Rated 19 Jun 2022
"solid meditation on the fringes of acceptable relationships in kooky suburbia mid 2000's America. Dialogue is very precise and meaningful. The ensemble cast connects in various interesting dynamics and there are many overtones to piece together after the fact."
90 92% Cha Cha Real Smooth (2022) - Rated 25 Apr 2022
85 77% The Sleeping Negro (2021) - Rated 10 Apr 2022
"Not really sure what the point was in the end. However, it was creatively shot, it was moody, the score was a nice art installation ambient, and the moral conundrum was real."
80 61% Licorice Pizza (2021) - Rated 09 Apr 2022
"Character study + relationship without a strong payoff. PTA's soundtrack is killer as usual, Haim is a nice surprise and Hoffman is magnetic."
90 92% The Worst Person in the World (2021) - Rated 26 Feb 2022
"Negative reviews actually criticized aspects that I thought were really well done. They mentioned that we never actually learn that much about Julie’s passions or professional life—claiming that this shows a superficial engagement with the character. But I read this as emphasizing interiority and a more interesting and less fraught kind of femininity which isn’t tied to external achievement and validation. I also keep thinking about various moments of characterization that were really well done."
