Just watched Tarot. What a pile of crap. I love a bad horror movie, but this was one long cliche of eye boogers.

Best movie

 

[mdmost]

The scene in the barber shop when it all clicks for Herman is just beautifully done. Wes really has a knack for those human elements in his movies. The little moments, typically non-verbal, that gives the movie a lot of heart.

One of my all time favorite films.

i’ve traveled a bit these last few weeks and when i’m flying i usually stream movies i’ve downloaded to my wifi hard drive on to my ipad, but i could not get them to connect this time for some reason, so i was relegated to the choices offered by delta on their in flight seatback screen.

so i took the opportunity to watch zone of interest, oppenheimer, chinatown, and cool hand luke- all movies i’d never seen. all great, and i probably enjoyed the two older classics the most.

zone of interest i’ll probably want to watch again as there was a lot of flight announcement pauses/distractions and i probably couldn’t appreciate the sound as much with the plane noise seeping in. but what a dichotomy.

ideally i would have seen oppenheimer on a big screen but since this movie was really carried by the story and acting i don’t think i would feel any stronger about it if i had. just great all around.

chinatown was amazing, i’m a sucker for noir. so was cool hand luke, even my partner got sucked into that one- she picked up on the religious themes almost right away. i’m glad i finally crossed these off my ‘want to watch’ list.

The First Omen was much better than expected. Decent despite some things I hadn't wanted to see.

 

[The Denmarkian Wonder]

Haven't seen these in a while. Still find Elizabeth and Will (especially Will) a bit annoying which i think will increase in the sequels lol

 

[tvham]

I rewatched The Thomas Crown Affair (1999) today - what a fun watch! The heist scenes were so great and Rene Russo / Pierce Brosnan just oozed sexiness.

It's a good thing they realized they had made a good thing with this movie and didn't turn it into a bunch of increasingly bloated sequels with diminishing returns.

So excited to finally get to watch this one!!!

I don't know if I want to watch this one or wait for the black and white version later this month.

Ooo, didn't know a black and white version was coming. That'll get a watch from me too.

 

[mdmost]

Actually, I was wrong. It's only available for rental on places like iTunes. Maybe it comes to Netflix later.

Finally got around to watching Drive-Away Dolls last night. I had an alright time with it, more than a few pretty hilarious moments, but it's definitely well below the usual level of quality you'd expect from something by one of the Coen brothers.

I like Dead Man's Chest and At Worlds End but yeah, those two post trilogy movies are not good.
