  An impeccably executed film. I found it more poignant than The Worst Person in the World (but loved both obv!)

  TÁR 2022

  ★★★ Watched 08 Mar 2023

  One line (harsh) review:
  House of Cards-type characters artificially elevated by the inherently cinematic nature of the orchestra?

  Alternative one line review (also harsh):
  This film is sort of solely surfing on a cool name and Cate Blanchett hanging out in pleasant bourgeois settings??

  More mean comments:
  It seems Todd Field couldn’t pick what personality disorder / mental illness to give Tár and went for an incoherent mixture of narcissism, schizophrenia, and (misrepresented!!) OCD. Similar indecisiveness when it came…

  White Noise 2022

  ★★★★★ Watched 17 Dec 2022

  Adam Driver + Greta Gerwig, Spielberg-esque action meets literary genius, can’t-take-your-eyes-off-it art direction and cinematography, a new LCD Soundsystem song?????

  Fav film this year by far. I feel like writing an essay about it.

  

(I prefer my movies without closure and could have done without the last ~20 min, but that’s my only note!!)
