my impulsive top 4 of all time atm
Matilda formed my aesthetic / ethic sensibility at a very young age ... both light-hearted and dark... resourceful kids and either demonic or angelic adults... I need to catch more Danny Devito as director stuff, I think he's one of the most significant cultural figures of our times
Earwig is a fairly recent fave. Somewhat similar philosophically to Matilda^^ but European and much much darker. Made by Lucile Hadzhihalilovic (work and life partner w Gaspar Noe). She seems to be making movies about adults biopoliticsmaxxing children. Giving Kafka, I think, but not even a little funny. Dreamy, vibesy stuff. To be avoided if you're bothered by not getting all the answers.
The Devils is a sexy lil romp about nuns letting libidinal tension turn into would-be Satanic psychoses. Feat a very very handsome Oliver Reed. Spoiler alert they massacre him at the end. I love Ken Russell and his bacchanalia.
The Royal Tenenbaums is my favorite Wes Anderson, at least from his early career. If u get it u get it. This one has some strong sentimental/emotional power over me, but then it's also pretty funny. The Royal Tenenbaums is The One. Also shoutout to the four Netflix shorts that came out last year, which I think are his best work in years and years and years (though I thought the same thing about Asteroid City).

currently it's hunt for the wilderpeople, pee-wee's big adventure, silence of the lambs and willy wonka and the chocolate factory. i don't change them often, my top 4 are my actual top 4 movies ever.
my 4 most recent: meet John doe (it was fine but the liberalism was a little overpowering), holland (mid but the cast ate), pee-wee as himself (great doc i love paul reubens so much), and mrs. winterbourne (total ass. but brendan fraser was sexay)

This tv show is so good and short which to some may be a positive but for me, I found very upsetting. If you enjoy the surreal and have a bone to pick with bureaucracy, this is the show for you!

It's summery, it has a guitar, it builds, it gets loud, it's long, it's optimistic and sad and happy and sad. :) ten stars!

aka Peau d’ane. Her dad wants to marry her and/so she wears the skin of a donkey that shat treasure!
It’s more disturbing acid trip fairytale than gothic victorian nightmare but I think they are two sides of the same coin :)
