  BARDO, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths 2022

  ★★★★ Watched 18 Jan 2023

  ¡Sube, Pelayo, Sube!

  This was a though watch. I got very frustrated multiple times throughout, but also loved it on so many levels that I'll probably give it a rewatch.

  Is it a tad pretentious? Yes. Is it beautiful? Yes. Is it fun? Yes. Is it way too long? Yeah, definitively.

  Identity Crisis (nationalism).
  Painful self awareness.
  Jadorowski, anyone?

  French Blood 3 - Mr. Frog 2020

  ★★★ Watched 02 Jan 2023

  This was a huge improvement from the previous isntallations. Three very solid shorts, with decent production value and some artistic merit (unlike some of the balls-to-the-wall meta horror of the last two) plus the main storyline of the girl's revenge aimed at Mr. Frog, which I found quite amusing.

  At this rate I don't care about the girl at all. The photographer is my main character 📸🦆🖤 and he's getting some character development on this one 😂

  Hopefully Mr. Sheep is available soon.

  French Blood 2 - Mr. Rabbit 2020

  ★★★ Watched 14 Aug 2022

  Better structured than the first one. I felt the quality of the segments was a bit more consistent this time. It is still somewhat of a hot mess overall, but damn, I'm intrigued to see what comes next... and to see my favorite crime scene photographer again 📸🦆

  French Blood 1 - Mr. Pig 2020

  ★★½ Watched 14 Aug 2022

  The most interesting parts happened between the end credits. Said that, those scattered clips were good enough to make me want to watch the second part. The rest of the movie was ok-ish. It's not a painful watch, but it's also not that memorable. Ps, I quite like the photographer at the end 🦆
