  The Thing 1982

  ★★★★★ Rewatched by Dorsey 19 Jun 2022 1

  And she was right!

  Ex Machina 2015

  ★★★★★ Rewatched by Dorsey 11 Apr 2016 121

  This is a movie about the ways that men treat women. The "Obvious Misogynist" considers women as a tool for him to control and fuck at his leisure. The "Nice Guy" wants to be a friend and liberator to women, but that interest comes and goes proportional to how much he wants to have sex with them. No matter how similar in intellect and skill we prove ourselves to be, they believe it is up to them to determine our worth, our freedom, even our personhood.

  Fuck them. Rock on, Ava.

  I don't know much about Tom Ford outside of his fragrance line, and I didn't see his first movie, but he pretty clearly has some problems with women that he needs to get worked out. Nocturnal…
