Tomorrowland 2015
I interviewed Brad Bird!
This has been an extremely long awaited post for me and I’ve been meaning to write about my phone call with Bird but I’ve never had the opportunity until now to do so. Mostly due to the lack of time I’ve had over these past few months. Now you’re probably thinking how I even managed to get a phone call with Brad. My idea to talk to him started back in July, 2022. At the time,…

Heaven is ahead of me 2022
My second entry into film
-link-
A young mans nightmare intertwines with his reality, distorting his view on life and its meaning. Stuck, he searches for a way out.
Heaven is ahead of me is a companion piece to Red Flooded You, a short I made two months ago. The two films resemble the feeling of being trapped, but also the search for a sense of renewal and release. This project was the hardest I’ve ever worked on something, it…

Red Flooded You 2022
My first entry into film

Memoria 2021
Mystifying
Had the privilege to see this at the Nuart theater last night. This will be the last week it will ever play in a theater, after that it will never be distributed digitally or physically again. So this was going to be a unique and rare occurrence no matter what. This is the first film I have seen from Apichatpong Weerasethakul, therefore I had little to no expectations. At the moment I am not giving a rating, a film…

A career-defining film from Wes Anderson that marks a major change in writing with Jason Schwartzman and Roman Coppola in this witty and heartfelt journey of three estranged brothers reuniting on a trek to India to find their mother one year following the death of their father as it explore sibling rivalry, identity, and loss as it also serves as a tribute to the early films of Merchant-Ivory and the works of Satyajit Ray.
