Hard to follow, but it really doesn’t matter, it’s too much fun. A bit slower and less majestic than A Touch of Zen, it’s still a hell of a lot better than basically any action movie you’ll find today.

Vivre Sa Vie 1962
Making a movie about how you don’t really know your wife, by having her become a prostitute, is quite a choice.

Double Take 2001
I can’t decide if this is the dumbest movie ever made, or a work of perfect comedy genius. All I know is I really liked it, and I’m cool with that.

Girl with Hyacinths 1950
This was an absolute masterpiece. Apparently Ingmar Bergman called it a perfect film, and I totally know what he meant. There's just nothing wrong with it. The acting is incredibly great, the story is compelling, the pacing is fluid, the cinematography beautiful. It's just an unbelievably compelling film, of the small sort that we just don't get much anymore.
The film feels like what would have happened if Fritz Lang and Ingmar Bergman combined to make the best existentialist noir ever.
