Black Bag had me locked in from the very first minute. It’s a sharp, fast-paced mystery that knows exactly what it’s doing and pulls it off in just 90 minutes. That deserves praise, especially when so many modern spy thrillers feel like they’re trying too hard.
It’s wild how a movie can feel both totally spontaneous and perfectly composed at the same time. Breathless doesn’t play by the rules—it shrugs them off and lights a cigarette while walking backwards into traffic.
Goddard captures something here that feels dangerous and immediate.
Persona feels like a dream. Or maybe a hallucination. Half the time I wasn’t even sure what was really happening, but somehow that made me like it even more. There’s this weird feeling that maybe Sister Alma and Elisabeth aren’t two separate people at all.
It’s a brutal film. Bleak, heavy, and filled with characters making the worst possible decisions over and over again. There’s no “good” person in this story. Just people who are broken in different ways, and watching them unravel is both fascinating and deeply painful.
I still can’t believe this movie came out in 1947. It looks incredible. The colors, the lighting, the way shadows are used, it’s honestly some of the most beautiful cinematography I’ve ever seen in a film this old. I kept forgetting it was all done on sets in a studio, because it feels so real and alive.
I had such a good time with this movie. I knew it was a mystery going in, but I wasn’t expecting it to be so funny. The dialogue is super sharp and the characters are all a little quirky in the best way.
Every single frame of this movie could be a painting. Robby Müller’s cinematography is just… unreal. It captures that vast, lonely beauty of the American Southwest in a way that somehow feels both epic and deeply personal. The way the colors hit, the way the characters are placed in the frame, it’s all so intentional without ever feeling showy.
Not what I was expecting. This movie was very good with an excellent score from Trent Reznor.
So, here we are. The end of 2023. This is the second year in a row that I have done a Top 50 as opposed to a Top 10 as I have done in years passed. I even considered not doing a full site blog and just relegating it to an Instagram post, but I want to make sure I am not hindered by the apps character limit and tag limit.…
2022 was the year of Dungeon Synth for me. I discovered the genre in 2021 but went far down the rabbit hole in 2022. So much so, that Bandcamp was where I was listening to most of my music. I have amassed over 1,000 Dungeon Synth releases on my Bandcamp page as well.…
