Paris Is Burning 1990
Second watch, first time in a theater.
I cried as soon as Venus appeared on screen. She deserved that wedding, her bottom surgery, to be a model. She deserved to live.

Bringing Out the Dead 1999
A more mature Taxi Driver, focusing on the toll that a necessary but traumatic job can take on a person. How, in order to watch people die every day, a person has to numb themselves—remove themselves mentally from the situation entirely, even—in order to stay sane, and how dangerous it can be for a person who simply feels too much to do that. Maybe Schrader/Scorsese’s most empathetic work.
