Word Is Out: Stories of Some of Our Lives 1977
These are my heroes. What a wonderful slice of history. Beautiful, matter of fact, and wholly affirming.

Imagine how horrible this could have been without the genius of Daniel Day-Lewis.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest 1975
Powerful ending to an incredibly entertaining film. The supporting cast was outstanding and Nicholson was at his absolute best. I feel inspired to shake things up and question authority! Wait, I don’t need an excuse for that...

The Godfather 1972
How have I never seen this movie before today?
Well, probably because I actively avoided it. lol
Like two hundred too many people told me how perfect it was and it turned me off. Plus, after watching Goodfellas, I was convinced I hated all gangster films. Which I may have still believed until today. But this film was f-ing great. Pacino was a total stud, Brando’s death is exactly how I wanna go, and now I understand about a million… -
Harry and Tonto 1974
If a movie were my spirit animal, this would be it. An incurable case of wanderlust rooted in human connection with a fierce desire for independence and a cat who goes on walks. I took nearly the same journey once and I’d do it again.

Still Walking 2008
Impressive. Delicate. Piercing. Magnanimous.
Still trying to find the right words, but it is something special for sure. -
The Conversation 1974
Whoa.
Drop the crowbar and calm the F down.
This film is paranoia personified. Blinded by his desire to know the truth, teetering between genius and madness, a man finds himself engulfed by a cacophony of fear.
What’s that sound?
It’s my jaw, dropping. -
The Act of Killing 2012
You really have to see it to believe it. People who get really upset by satire should watch this to understand what actual offensive behavior looks like. That being said, I did find myself letting out a few chuckles because in addition to being mass murderers these men are also a little ridiculous.
