Letterboxd — Your life in film

Probably my best viewing because I was showing my brother and it could not have gone better. He nearly barfed at the end. I laughed and the world laughed with me. He cried alone. Hilarious movie.

dude not even joking, there’s one moment that alone clears 90% of the MCU

this has one of the best montages

Spent the ENTIRE night thinking Julia Louis-Dreyfus voiced the evil woman. It even LOOKS like her to some extent. Shocked and embarrassed to find out it was not her 🤨

yes I've seen Top Gun Maverick but last night I watched ratatouille so ima review ratatouille 😤

music so good.

that's the review. please clap.

I find it not surprising at all that one of the most beautiful movies I’ve ever seen was adapted from one of the most beautiful books I’ve now ever read. Having recently finishing the novel by Christopher Isherwood, I revisited this and though it was slightly different from how I remember it, I can confidently say it was well done in its portrayal of Isherwood’s writing, writing I fell in love with early in the book. A standout performance in Colin Firth’s filmography and an early sign that Nicholas Hoult would one day be huge.

been so long since I've seen this so I wanted to rewatch and make a "MIDnight in Paris" joke but unfortunately I ended up really really liking it damn you W**dy All*n

Mainly loved the vibes and particularly the colour grading, an area of film I've been really delving into lately.

Did not capture the same magic overall that I felt in A Man Escaped, but the opening is soooo gripping, pulled me in instantly. I love watching Michel's eyes as he is mid-pick, the concentration taking complete control. The montage of Michel learning more pickpocket techniques is mesmerizing. For some reason, I get very strong The Stranger by Albert Camus vibes when I watched this. Michel is so separated from society (aka a stranger). I also whole-heartedly believe this HAS to be a big inspiration for Christopher Nolan's black and white debut film Following.

watched this in pretty much the most ideal setting with ideal friends and ideal lighting (which is part of the setting). The movie was also very ideal with ideal cinematography and the word “bitch” yelled the ideal amount of times for this story.
