my favorite movie of the last ~decade, from my favorite filmmaker. I think this is one of the most riveting films in recent memory, so dark, moody, and grimly romantic. unreal levels of passion and desire going on here. some of the best camera work i've ever seen, park knows how to direct a damn movie. i love it, and i think it just got slightly overshadowed due to when it came out in relation to the pandemic, but it has it's fans. in another world this film would be absolutely massive

most beautiful and stylized cinematography, colours, deadpan, bittersweet acting … probably my favourite watch of 2023!

surreal, haunting, visually stunning. slow but if you give it the chance really compelling. makes good use of the drama of film and especially black and white cinematography(to me, makes it a must see). plus with costumes designed by coco herself !!

i would sell my soul to watch this film for the first time again. just stunning…so much said with very few words & each frame lingers for just the right amount of time

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!!!!

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

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!!!
