    The Eight Mountains

    ★★★★★

    Something unbelievably beautiful.
    So amazing and philosophical story about powerful lifelong friendship and finding yourself.
    Story of two men spanning decades.
    From their childhood to building cottage to the Alps.
    Finishing something their father has left to them.
    No matter how long these friends have been apart, they always can meet each other like nothing has happened.
    Two different personalities and life goals, but their love in mountains connect them.
    Melancholic and very emotional journey.
    But somehow it never was…

  • The Banshees of Inisherin

    The Banshees of Inisherin

    Wow!
    Just wow!
    This instantly became my favorite film from 2022 so far.
    Also my favorite film from director Martin McDonagh.
    Just unbelievably beautiful on so many levels.
    This type of very dark and maybe even quite cold comedy is just my type.
    I laughed in very many times to this film.
    Some really smart comedy that isn't overdone at any moment.
    But then this film also manages to be very melancholic and absolutely heartbreaking.
    This all definitely made me…

    ★★★★

    What an experience.
    Extreme cult classic directed by Pier Paolo Pasolilni.
    Highly disturbing study on power.
    Story set in Italy during WWII.
    18 young girls and boys kidnapped by rich leaders and tortured in many different ways.
    Each one being worse than another.
    Only way out is death.
    It's fascinating how this film uses Dante's Inferno as structure.
    Visually very striking film with great special effects and unique techniques.
    This film really managed to make me feel sick multiple times.
    I'm glad that i finally watched this.

  • Happy Together

    Happy Together

    ★★★★

    Another beautiful film from Wong Kar-wai.
    Maybe not my favorite one from him.
    But still good story about unique romance.
    Dysfunctional relationship.
    Downfalls of it and loneliness.
    Male couple stranded in Argentina because they don't have enough money to return home to Hong Kong.
    Great performances.
    Really great dialogue between characters.
    Visually beautiful with stunning cinematography.
    Maybe i need to see this again later to love it more.

    Fourth film from director Damien Chazelle.
    I'm not lying when i say that this might be my favorite from him.
    Beautiful and crazy love letter to cimema.
    Story set in early days of Hollywood when transition from silent films to talkies was happening.
    It's told mainly from perspective of three characters.
    Up and coming film star, filmmaker and already famous actor.
    Their rise to fame, struggles of keeping up with changing industry and downfalls.
    Huge parties and filmmaking in different…

    ★★★★

    Really entertaining biopic about Elvis.
    I'm not actually that familiar with him so this was really interesting to watch.
    Quite long film, but i can see how this film needed all that runtime.
    It's about whole life of Elvis.
    Rise to fame, fraud and downfalls.
    Very fast paced.
    Maybe some aspects needed more development.
    Like family life and relationships.
    But this film definitely told more about story of Elvis and his manager.
    Nicely made.
    Very colorful film.
    Good music to…
