  Love Me Tonight 1932

  ★★★★ Watched 28 Feb 2023

  Fun, charming and silly little musical romp. Lost me a little towards the end but Rogers and Hart tunes are wonderful, the cast charming and the editing is a lot of fun too.

  Mother 2009

  ★★★★½ Watched 23 Jan 2017 2

  South Korea, how are you so good? Literally no country on Earth does twisty, smart and socially-minded thrillers like you.

  Kim Hye-ja's performance has to be one of the best ever.

  Necktie 2013

  ★★★★½ Watched 11 Aug 2017

  Yorgos Lanthimos is a director of such distinct and real personality that its hard not to appreciate his output of disturbing, and absurdist cinema. In Necktie Lanthimos manages to build one of his most absorbing and terrifying worlds in only 90 seconds, displaying his ability for instantaneously uncomfortable atmosphere. Imagining a world where people still settle their differences by duelling, Lanthimos fascinatingly juxtaposes child-like innocence with adult conflict.
