Catching up with the Sam Mendes films I haven't seen. Really glad I am because so far, Jarhead and this film have been much more enthralling for me than American Beauty and Road to Perdition. Loved the script, performances, production design, and cinematography. Looking forward to Away We Go.

it's late but i don't feel like going to sleep yet, so here's some rambling about a movie i haven't seen in about 8 years.
everybody was talking about ~Leo~ because of the golden globes, and it made me think of this movie, which i actually think about a lot. i saw it once, in the theater 8ish years ago with some bozo girlfriends who i didn't feel like arguing with, and i remember hating it almost instantly. something about it got on my nerves, and i became more and more furious about this whole "sad annoying white people" narrative that i was sitting there rolling my eyes and seething. i'm fine with unlikeable characters but not if the whole…
If Jack and Rose shared the plank of wood and both survived the sinking of the Titanic...
This is what would've happened.
Rose: So now I'm crazy because I don't love you, right? Is that the point?
Jack: No! Wrong! You're not crazy, and you do love me. That's the point, Rose.
Rose: But I don't. I hate you. You were just some boy who drew a naked portrait of me once, and now I loathe the sight of you. In fact, if you come any closer, if you touch me or anything, I think I'll scream.
Jack: Oh, come on, stop this Rose.

who needs couples therapy when you can invite Michael Shannon over for dinner.
I've got a confession to make...I hated Titanic.
Aside from the pure spectacle of it all (which even that didn't impress me much) I didn't see what the big deal was. I wasn't even all that wowed by Leo and Kate in it. I mean, they were good, but not as good as people claimed they were. When this was being hyped up as the big reunion of the Titanic stars, I wasn't exactly "thrilled" or anything. So, the first time I saw it, I went in with low, low, LOW expectations. Not only was I floored completely by their performances and the film itself, but this has grown to become a favorite of mine.
Sam Mendes once again does…

As much as I appreciate Sam Mendes' approach to structure, and his commitment to the valleys and plateaus of marriage, especially in regards to the augments that feel like pillars to confront, one after another in a never-ending cycle - this movie doesn't really work. It might be due to the source, but it's probably because Mendes trusts in these actors to lift up every other element of the filmmaking. Some may call it stripped-down, or intimate, but it's honestly lazy when there's no other way to approach the film because of its adherence to the verbal sparring of the actors. With performers as physical as Winslet and DiCaprio, the movie is a wasted opportunity.
No one forgets the truth. They just get better at lying.
What would have happened if Rose’d have left a space to Jack and so he doesn't have died.
Shuffled my watchlist again. Is this what would've happened if Jack and Rose didn't get on the Titanic???
If being crazy means living life as if it matters then I don't care if we're completely insane.
Tbh I just watched this movie for that scene where leo blows out rage I think it's worth it. Michael Shannon was better than leo and Kate imo in his short screen time. The movie is mostly a mess, it gone way too much to show what it represents and that was bad, the dialogues are bland they feel nothing to me. Leo and Kate gave good performance or we we can say they delivered more than it's needed. Everything is just too much in the film I believe other than Micheal Shannon. Honestly a very average film to cut the time when you feel bored
Marriage Story should have been called Divorce Story, and this movie should have been called Marriage Story
Titanic 2
Years after the events of Titanic, Jack and Rose find each other again. They both have to change their names to protect themselves from the law, Jack's faking his own death and Rose stealing and eventual disposal of the heart of the sea.
A venture into their ordinary lives that simply aren't as exciting as they had hoped.
