I really need to rewatch that actually. <br /><br />The only one from your list I haven't seen is Saint Omer, so I need to check it out!Alex Withrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887018476048271594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-6801060567131336762023-03-20T13:30:57.578-04:002023-03-20T13:30:57.578-04:00Yep, that's just it. The first time I saw that...Yep, that's just it. The first time I saw that movie, I didn't really know what was happening, or why. Then when it clicked, I was floored as well. When I've gone back to rewatch it, there is so much packed into the movie to clue you into what it's doing. I haven't been that moved by a film in years.Alex Withrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887018476048271594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-91317782467116229532023-03-20T13:27:19.793-04:002023-03-20T13:27:19.793-04:00Babylon bombing with critics, audiences, and award...Babylon bombing with critics, audiences, and awards is just shocking to me.

I ...Its wonderful to hear how much Bardo moves you. I finally found time to see it off the back of your podcast and had a unique experience. In all honesty I really didn't connect with it for most of the runtime, in spite of some great sequences peppered in throughout. But then in that last act, it absolutely floored me. <br /><br />I don't have a lot of time at the moment but will definitley see it again someday, knowing what I now know about the ending. It re-frames the whole experience with a profound new emotional texture which spoke to me so deeply, particuarly in the context of creating art that is entirely your own.

We will definitely share a few once I write my Top 10 (still waiting on Women Talking just in case) I love that Petite Mamam got some love. I really need to check out Bardo. I hadn't heard of it until the Oscar nominations were announced. I'll have to listen to your postcast episode about Bablyon, I'm still so irritated that it bombed.Brittani Burnhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07975067259283007280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-16033267211046305962023-02-07T17:17:09.437-05:002023-02-07T17:17:09.437-05:00So far, I've only seen Blonde and Bones and Al...So far, I've only seen <i>Blonde</i> and <i>Bones and All</i> based on my <a href="https://letterboxd.com/thevoid99/list/the-best-of-2022/" rel="nofollow">list</a> so far.
