502Finally saw Killers of the Flower Moon. Man, it's long. I treated it like a mini series and watched it in three sittings. After I couldn't think of a section I would cut to tighten the running time.
What a tragic, specific piece of American history. DiCaprio becomes such a perfect idiot who keeps getting compelled to do the worst thing. A character with no back bone. DeNiro was also fantastic and evil.

503I'm really excited to see this. From the trailer it legitimately looks really funny.

504It’s quite funny. One thing I usually hate about satire is that it’s nearly always made to flatter the audience. Even satire that attacks the audience, still flatters it. American Fiction doesn’t do that.andyman wrote: Sun Jan 28, 2024 5:25 amI'm really excited to see this. From the trailer it legitimately looks really funny.

505In the last week, I watched La Ceremonie and The Talented Mr. Ripley, to wash the taste of Saltburn out of my head. Both pretty good, at vastly different budget levels.
Also the new-ish Christian Petzold movie, Afire. Immediately after finishing I know it will benefit from a rewatch. RIYL Rohmer’s Moral Tales.

Absolutely terrible. One of the worst films I’ve seen.

507I had a little window this afternoon so indulged in a lazy watch of Breaker Morant. Still a cracker.

Re: Movies you have watched thread.
508Poor Things is so good. My take was that it was ultimately a coming of age story about discovering, losing and fighting for autonomy. I really enjoyed this movie. And my most sincere appreciation for a science fiction movie set in the Victorian era that doesn't just go for 'steampunk' as it's aesthetic. Emma Stone was fantastic. Mark Ruffalo was so fucking funny. I saw this 3 or 4 weeks ago, and some other really great movies since, and I still keep thinking about it.

509I liked Two Lovers, which I hadn't seen before. Very good movie. Little Odessa used to play on the Sundance Channel a bunch back in the day, but I didn't catch the whole thing until recently and liked that a good deal too.
