I know it's propaganda, but goddamn fighter pilots and jets are SO COOL.

Princess Mononoke 1997
I love it. The world on display in this film held my attention with an iron grip, but I think the film's greatest strength is found in its use of contrast. The gentle forest against the (surprisingly) violent battles, the typically quiet sounds of the countryside against the sharp crack of a gun going off, the film uses this to propel the story and I couldn't look away.
Also, it is just gorgeous animation and I love Ghibli art design so much.

Shirkers 2018
The movie made me nostalgic for a Singapore I've never seen, while also appreciating just how far we've come since they shot Shirkers. The women front and centre of this movie inspired an itch that I haven't felt this bad in a while, but I just want to go out and create SOMETHING. For all of this, I am immensely grateful that I got to watch this.
