The Souvenir: Part II 2021

★★★★★ Watched by benhack 10 May 2022

Malaise in galvanising image, autonomy claimed in resolute closure - a sensitivity deeply affecting in aesthetic glory. An ambivalence that ambles in translation, verbal and visual - textures that engage through form and ambition. These twilight memories to discern; in regret, insidious on the mind - absent. Yet, they give vitality, a sanguine passion to unabating creativity that cascades morose inertia. Phantasms of emotion, turbulent and tender in their parlance - all emerging palpable through celluloid candour...liberty, at last.
Solaris 1972

★★★★½ Watched by benhack 12 Mar 2022 2

Entering the trove of thought's delicate liberty. The conditioning of spirit and nature in conflict, both manifesting apparitions of repressed thought and emotion through the despondent caverns of the mind. A vacant yearning, the phenomenon of love, withering in it's versmilitude - cold in the realms of the subliminal. Extrinsic transmissions that cascade into the conscious oblivion, a maelstrom of a dissipating spectre glazes the eyes of the burdened. Despairing over the intangible, the great ether penetrating into the gossamer…

Frownland 2007

★★★★½ Watched by benhack 24 Jun 2022

A filthiest ambivalence, seduced in the pitiful textures of celluloid. It's a rupturing malaise; a dirty, galactic intercourse of self destructive turmoil; a bruisingly honest enpathy to the internally defeated - wouldn't expect anything less from the third Safdie brother!
Uncut Gems 2019

★★★★★ Rewatched by benhack 23 Jun 2022 1

Transaction and holy talisman, a wuthering lottery besets the cursed.
Obsession appraises the odds, taking the liberty of euphoria to wage and gamble. Glazed eyes that scout feverish ideals in conflict with eyes that fixate to recompense, every gesture is quivered, testing and invested. Hands that tremble in bidding; language so terse; contempt annihilating into caprice. Setting burden as currency; galvanising in terse rhapsody, falling through the gossamer of a baseless dream. Fleeting, as with every rapture that's embroiled; simmering in the exchanges of reward - woken into reality by the payout of fate.
2019...what a quality year for film!
