Nickel Boys (2024)

Truly the best movie released last year!
Story points: Beautiful but heartbreaking film about the horrors of the jim crow south intertwined with snippets to remind you how recent all of that was. The final scene and a hug scene are the most difficult and heavy moments but i am obsessed with how emotional they are. Honestly, there’s no way you dont cry and feel anger towards what this country stands for by the end of watching this.
Technical points: Performances were amazing, the sound really puts you into these scenes (the boxing scene is insane and the use of sound really elevates the weight of what is going on in that moment). Camera work and coloring were really unique and some have complained about it being confusing but i bet those ppl also thought Little Women (2019) time jumps were hard to follow (derogatory).
Please rent this, need another project from everyone involved in this asap.

Today’s amc selfie

caught a matinee of “Nickel Boys”. one of the best adaptations of a book I’ve ever seen. Captured the nuance and complexities of the story, particularly around identity, race, and perspectives of self and history.

C’MON C’MON (DIR. MIKE MILLS, 2021)

I cried leaving the theater when this finished, critically underrated performance from Joaquin Phoenix, and I think this movie just went under so many people’s radars - if you like Mike Mills other movies, you HAVE to see this one

amc a-list and your local indie theater

the amc a-list is well-known gem, but it is really one of the best deals available, especially after the recent change they made to it. four movies a week! what! However I get sometimes you just have to go to the cinema on a budget, tickets can be expensive. STILL, support your local independent theater if you can!! at least around me there are multiple rep theaters (shoutout the coolidge theater in Boston and the Brattle in Cambridge) that constantly show old films and introduce classics to a new audience. I will die for these theaters, and I try to find a balance between using my a-list for new movies and seeing rep screenings at the indies! you can do both! I LOVE MOVIES!!!!

starting a dvd collection

as both a movie and a physical media lover, starting a dvd/blue-ray/criterion collection and buying a blue-ray player was one of the best choices I've ever made. record stores, thrift stores, and other random places sell dvds of incredible movies for like 1 dollar each, so it makes it super easy to start a collection, and you have a physical watchlist to go through. I've also started buying criterion and I am in love with those, but they can be quite expensive so I do it sparingly, and only when there is a 50% sale which happens like 2-3 times a year. get off the streaming services and start watching your movies off a disc!!!

get drinks with your coworkers

get drunk, embarrass yourself, it’s worth it, it will strengthen your bonds (as long as it’s not your boss)
