Can't Get You Out of My Head 2021
First foray into Curtis and for some reason I chose his most daunting jaunt. Incredibly impressive and while I'm not sold on everything he has to say his general thesis is 100% spot on.

Black dry comedy with a generally aloof tone. The plot is a familiar enough concept but the film is entirely uninterested in asking any big existential, ethical, or philosophical questions which in itself is kind of a refreshing twist for this kind of story. Best Aaron Paul performance post-BrBa.
Would recommend.

Meticulous, turbulent and delightfully kosher this is a journey into the…

Come and See 1985
Got a case of homesickness when I started seeing a small wave of people I follow log and review this after a showing of it at the Aero Theater in L.A., something I'm sure I would have attended. Still, it gave me the push to finally cross this off my watchlist where it has lived for quite a while.
Wow. Glad I saw this but I honestly don't know if I could ever do it again. I'm emotionally drained after…
