Letterboxd — Your life in film

So, my boyfriend has indeed decided to force these films upon me and watch my reaction.. I don’t think there’s much I could say about this that hasn’t likely already been said a thousand times, cause I know I’m so late to the game and these are a big subject of.. discourse? I guess. But man, I will say the design of so many characters in this film is just so wildly off-putting it makes it genuinely hard to concentrate…

Confession time.. this is one of the Star Wars things that just went right over my head. I'm a fairly casual Star Wars enjoyer, and I remember my brother seeing it in the cinema and telling me not to bother and me at 16 just listened to him. You know how you used to just blindly listen to your brother? What was that? I did and didn't watch so many things based on his instruction when I was a teenager.…

Weird thing, I wanted to watch the silence of the lambs tonight but I searched every streaming service and it wasn’t on any of them, and whilst doing that I came across this film and remembered my boyfriend recommended it to me a few months ago as a decent modern romcom suggestion, so I give it a go and within the first four minutes of the film the main character watches the silence of the lambs on her hotel room…

My friend and I were supposed to be in work tonight but it had to close due to a ‘technical difficulty’ so yeah, we went to see the titanic re-release. I guess you could say we know how to make the most of a Saturday night off. You know you really forget how much this bangs… as soon as the screen went black the older lady behind us went “that was a cracker wonnit” and as funny as it was…

A moderately fun time with friends, as expected, but unfortunately something that I don’t feel extends very far beyond its trailer. Some good performances and some kind of memorable moments. Not a fan of the opening credits font… which is of course always my biggest disappointment. I’m not too experienced with Shyamalan to be honest so when it comes to people on the web arguing up down right and left about his films, which they seem to do every time…

You guys weren't kidding about this one... I really enjoyed that. I always appreciate characters who move spontaneously, chaotically, undecidedly from one passion to another, one idea of their life to another ..... as if they have all the time in the world to decide how to spend their life even though they're simultaneously fully aware that time is fleeting and their life is actually, right now, as we speak, being spent, fast, with every second and minute and hour…

I don’t know. I wouldn’t say I necessarily disliked it… but I can’t see myself ever watching this again. So for that reason I’m not sure I’d really mean it if I hearted it. It has a lot of good things going for it, I think it’s shot beautifully, the music is great, Michelle Williams is Michelle Williams, but I guess I just don’t feel that glad to have spontaneously gone and seen it tonight (dragging my friend along with me), I…
