gotta say this live action adaptation of the barbie horse adventures video games got seriously intense
This felt like the type of movie yorgos lanthimos would make if he was a human being
Who would've thought that a six-minute long take of Olivia Cooke literally sleeping would be one of the most electrifying and nail-biting cinematic experiences of the year?
AFI 2017: film #3
would you believe me if i told you that this was the funniest fucking movie i’ve seen all year? i’m in awe. definitely the most sickeningly fun time i’ve had in a theater in such a while. and honestly? it has the potential to be a cult classic. i absolutely adored this. heathers would be proud
Anya Taylor-Joy: The queen of being in movies that are shot really well and have a lot of potential but come out underwhelming. I don’t exactly know what it is that I didn’t like about this but there was something I didn’t like. Every technical aspect was phenomenal. Great cinematography, great editing, great sound design, etc. And also some pretty great performances. But wow just imagine Yorgos Lanthimos getting his hands on this lmfao. In fact this is an open letter to Yorgos to PLEASE BUT ANYA IN YOUR NEXT MOVIE, THANKS.
the intellectual side of my brain: lily and amanda are the perfect depiction of what happens when rich people are surrounded by so much privilege that they lose any and all empathy for other people and only care about their own petty issues, and are ultimately a slightly exaggerated although definitely necessary analysis of when laziness and entitlement turn to apathy
the correct side of my brain: lily and amanda are lesbians

“i just threw it away”
a MONUMENTAL addition to 2018 and two of the most solid performances of the year. can’t wait for future film scholars to frantically debate how this was so overlooked when it’s such a ridiculous good time
If the past few months have taught us anything, it’s that not giving a shit about other human beings is the best way to get ahead in life. Empathy is a weakness. It’s a virtue, of course — and hopefully part of our natural condition — but it’s also a weakness. Empathy is one of the few things that money can’t buy, and the only thing that the rich can’t afford. “Thoroughbred,” Cory Finley’s delightfully vicious and mind-bogglingly confident first feature, is a pitch-black comedy about the danger of being around people of privilege when they first start to figure that out.
