What was the last movie you watched?

Rohmer's entire filmography is a wankfest of rich people having hollow thoughts. I still fail to see if it's a critic or an eulogy to them.
In all my years of studying cinema and narration, only once did I ever had the desire to crash my screen with my head and go back in time to spit on the director because of awfull dialogues : When I had to prepare a semestre's degree by studying Rohmer.

There must be like on or two films of his that I enjoyed among the dozens I put myself through to watch. I guess I liked the ones with the lady who seduces a lot of men’s. It’s one of his films at the beach I guess.
 
Do you have favorite films and favorite political films ?
I'm kind of a normie in term of favorite movies. I LOVE cinema, but I'm not a big movie lover. But most of all, I love adventure movies and my position of political movies is that all movies are political :optimistic:


For the more intense politically, i'd say Matrix, Wall-E, Nausicaa, Children of Men, Minority report, Modern Times, Dune (2024), I loved District 9, Gattaca, and many other political SF movies back in the days, I wonder how they would hold up now.

Not that I like only Big movies, but I always loved being a pain in the ass of elitist "movie lovers" who consume indies after indies for the sake of having a bigger d... database. I'm interested in the making more that the content if you prefer.

It's completely fine. I even understand why his movies are the way they are. I just... can't take them lol. Like Mathias said, for me these movies sound like rich spoiled kids going on provincial beach walks with the 10k of daddy in the pocket.

You can always watch both kind of films that you describe.

Not watching indie films is just lack of curiosity.

Also you should definitely watch films about political and historical events for instance.

For instance the original film Alien by Ridley Scott is one my favorite films. It's definitely a blockbuster, pure horror entertainment and also one of the greatest anti-capitalistic films that I have seen. Probably the best sci-fi film ever.
 

Kizaruber Eats

Lobster Pain and Zoidberg the GOATS
Rewatched Lion. Extremely tragic, upsetting but ultimately inspiring and uplifting film, despite a heartbreaking reveal at the end.

The kind of film that hits much harder the older you get. Like the song When You Were Young by The Killers.

Very powerful, moving and relatable to real life film. Without going too much into my life story and trauma dumping, I'm glad movies like this exist. Makes you feel a bit less crazy, alone, misunderstood. Also a lot of truly grim reality checks, wake-up calls in it.

The kind of film you never really forget, that lingers on with you for years, like Saroos hopeless, impossible search to find his family especially his brother and mother.

Sia did an amazing beautiful, fitting song for this called Never Give Up. Given it revolves around Australia somewhat too, all the better she was involved too.

I might rewatch life of pi soon, that film really left a mark on me too. Also wanna check out films I never actually boyfriend with like LOTR, The Hobbit , Da Vinci Code, The Matrix etc (sacrilege i know).

Also the murder mystery club film coming out on Netflix looks very promising. Murder mysteries and pierce brosnan? Say no more.
