  Tideland 2005

  ★★★★½ Watched 28 Sep 2023

  Equal parts horrific, sad, enchanting and heartwarming. I hate how much I loved this and love how much I hated it. And as we all learned from Dell, those don't mean the same thing.

  All stars go to one of the greatest child performances in cinematic history.

  Double feature this with Pans Labyrinth.

  I was today years old when I learned that Mae Questel was the voice of both Olive Oyl and Betty Boop.

  Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood 2019

  ★★★★½ Rewatched 17 Jun 2022

  This movie is Tarantinos love letter to himself. While there is a case to be made that this is true for all his movies, it is never more clear than this one. That being said, this is still so fun to watch. My personal favorite aspect of this movie is the tangents that the plot goes on. I could watch a full season of Lancer, or a movie about Cliff's time in the war or miniseries about Rick's time in Italy.

  Two and a half stars for the dog. Two stars for the Spahn Ranch sequence.

  Double feature this with The Wrecking Crew
