Letterboxd — Your life in film

all the songs are bops and burnham is saying perhaps nothing that hasnt already been said, but still manages to put a lot of feelings into words (and disorienting cut sequences), which makes this into a very intimate character portait.

I haven’t rewatched this film in years and what struck me is how realistic it is, the way it cuts away from the darkest themes with comedy. The film uses the same coping mechanisms as the characters. And they keep putting themselves out there because what alternative is there? it’s only a little bit of fun, darling!

she’s simply gotta have it!!!

i was extremely impressed with the relevance and the progressive modern spirit in which this was made, as a debut film.

it is spike lee, so i shouldn’t be surprised

Gandalf wasn’t the best drinking game character but i made due. it was also stinking hot but we got through all extended versions goodnight

Gandalf was selected for me, and my fate is now bound to Gandalf (in terms of drinking game)

didnt get a chance to watch the remastered theatrical releases in the cinema so ya know it’s marathon time

cinematic comfort food

second one is a better film, but this holds up imo!

i liked it but i hate the happy/aunt may side plot like please...

i did it! this is the last of the oscar nominees 2021! and all i can say about this movie is: ew.

ah so this is how you succeed in making a touching and real film centred on a single family over a couple decades! richard linklater wishes!
