I watched l’intrus yesterday btw. The other Claire Denis you suggested. The photography was beautiful but I think I need to watch a second time. I got the gist of it but some elements no. Like the old asian lady, was she a pro or an employee of the clinic?

It has been along time since I have seen it. I remember not being fully able to making sense of it. I just chalked it up to one of those movies that just makes you feel things + I really liked the final scene with the woman and the sled dogs.

I do think it’s one of those. Made me think of Robert Eggers style a bit. More dialog but usually incomprehensible (the witch for example, the other 2 as well). The feeling is more important

Ya, it can be a bit frustrating while watching but they have a tendency to stay with you for awhile.

The witch is one of my favourites

It is mine too.

Nice!

What do you think of Hereditary by Ari Aster?

I haven’t seen it. Maybe watch this weekend!

Now that you brought it up I need to rewatch, it was so good.

Starts cold as ice with the family getting banned. I remember rewatching this after having kids. What a blow

Ruthless

What do you do in his situation? Speak your truth and get banned. With the wife and 4 kids to feed. Or keep it to yourself? Especially knowing what happens next where banned means death. What a dilemma

Such a great dilemma, and so relatable, dammed if you do, dammed if you don’t.

He was screwed from the beginning. Love that it sparks discussion

What did you think of his new movie, Nosferatu?

It just one of those movies for me even though I saw it at the movie theater when it came out, images from it randomly appear in my mind. 🤷🏻‍♂️

It’s kinda like a dream. A scene is not totally finished but it cuts to the next one. Very surreal. I enjoyed it. I think I might look for all her stuff and do a festival 😂

Her movies I find kinda of emotionally brutal. I think I have seen most of them.

I’m fully convinced and have full trust in your taste in movies. The festival shall happen! 😂

I go through periods where things that interest me change radically, so sometimes I am hesitant about saying I recommend something because I wonder if I do still actually think that. It is special piece of art if you can carry it through your whole life.

Totally agree
