Quickly becoming a huge Kiyoshi Kurosawa fan.
I loved Cure (top 5 for me) and Pulse was really great too. His films really get under your skin and create a distinct feeling of dread.

I saw my first film directed by Kore-eda yesterday and it was a masterpiece! I absolutely loved this film. This is also the first film I have seen that has Ryuichi Sakamoto as the composer! I really love the emotion and character shown in this film. The actors and actresses did a great job acting. It definitely struck a chord with me and I felt like I could definitely relate to what was shown in the film. I heavily recommend this film and will be excited to check out more films made by this director.

🌀I’m including this because it’s a vaguely unapproachable art film and I hope you’re impressed that I liked it. I saw it at Metrograph in January. Dreams consists of eight vignettes, each inspired by real recurring dreams from Kurosawa’s life. It was made late in his career and is described by Metrograph as “the work of a filmmaker with nothing left to prove but a great deal to say.” (I’ve been thinking about that phrasing ever since I read it.) I hate to sound like a frat boy but I was on mushrooms when I saw it and I am going to have to recommend that. I’ve never seen the uncanny nature of dreams captured so well.

Terrifying animated horror that had me completely engrossed the entire time. If you’re looking for something more lighthearted, try Millenium Actress or Tokyo Godfathers. Highly recommend the satoshi kon catalogue

🔮tomorrow PI.FYI launches to the public
this project is the result of thousands of hours spent coding everything from scratch after I got laid off six months ago
no thiel-bucks or weirdo outsider money, just a pure desire to make something fun and true to Perfectly Imperfect’s day one goal of helping people find new things from real human beings, not algorithms or AI
a pure labor of love that I’ve been quietly plotting for two years and it’s completely self-funded from my (rapidly) dwindling savings account
so thank you for coming along for this weird ride 🫶 let's see where it goes
