    Shithouse 2020

    ★★★ Watched 13 Dec 2020

    This is so melancholy and authentic and raw. Looking forward to seeing more from Cooper Raiff. Reminds me of Linklater in that it feels like an anti-nostalgia depiction of college. This feels so genuinely special, I’m crying ok

    Eerie score, incredible set designs, and one of the coolest scenes involving public transit. this drips with 60s sex appeal

  • Stalker

    Stalker 1979

    ★★★★★ Watched 20 Nov 2020 1

    Watched this almost 2 weeks ago and needed some time to reflect. Acknowledging that I’m still probably missing 20-30% of the nuance because there are just sooo many levels to this, undoubtedly one of the best things I’ve ever seen. The Room is a vessel for purpose and desire but also for the film itself in that it can be whatever you believe it to be. It’s about God and salvation, but it’s also about pleasure, class, about hope, about…

  • But I'm a Cheerleader

    But I'm a Cheerleader 1999

    ★★★½ Watched 15 Nov 2020

  • Café Society

    ★★★ Watched 27 Nov 2020

    Now this is Kristen Stewart pretending to be straight!

  • Museum Hours

    Museum Hours 2012

    ★★★½ Rewatched 30 Nov 2020

    Meditative and immersive. There is a connection both the characters have to the art and to each other that feels so authentic, it makes me nostalgic for the serendipity of connection pre-pandemic. Perfect for days when you’re missing museums 🥺
