I’m usually a book worm but as I’ve started teaching A-Level film I’ve been branching out on viewing a variety of films as a bit of a New Year’s resolution. I started by creating a list of all the Oscar/bafta nominated films and used these emojis to signify if I’d seen it, wanted to see it or wasn’t bothered ✔▶⛔ (I’m not that nerdy honestly) Triangle of Sadness was mad! Like a random mix of White Lotus style with some nauseating visuals of vomit and sewerage - but I was so gripped I couldn’t look away!

I got bored quickly with the list so went through the Palm D’or winners since the 1950’s. This has been much more enjoyable! Films I’d not heard off or vaguely heard of that played some significant role in the history of film.

I particularly enjoyed ‘The Conversation’ (1974) FF Coppola with Gene Hackman. Also caught up with Barton Fink, Marty and Sex, Lies and videotapes.

Anyway I came in here to share that I’d watched Navalny, the Oscar winning documentary from this year. It was excellent and the whole scenario is so corrupt and crazy. If you are interested in Russia or documentaries in general it is a must see.

Anyone recommend and other ‘lists’ I should look in to? I thought about looking in to certain Directors and watching their first, most successful and most recent releases.

Sorry for the boring long post 😂

I enjoyed your post!

Do you have Letterboxd? It’s a film app and there’s loads of lists on there! You can see which lists are popular at the moment or use the search bar. Some have really specific/quirky/interesting themes which I enjoy.

Ah you’ve just reminded me of it! Yes I downloaded it a while ago but forgot! Thank you for the reminder! It was great when I first looked at it but then have completely ignored it for months! 😂
 
Scream 2022. A pile of tit. I guessed the killer the second they showed up for their first scene.

I knew it'd be 2 people but I didn't guess which girl it would be, but anyway it's ridiculous because Amber was tiny and the Ghostface that killed Dewey (she claimed she killed him) was his height or even taller.

Went down a David Lynch rabbit hole so watching Secrets & Lies (Mike Leigh) as a livener!
Mullholland Drive was a disappointment but maybe that’s because I’m too old for that tit now… Lynch was very much of a time I think.

Mulholland Drive was an absolute pretentious heap of horseshit.

The Naomi Watts scenes with the gorgeous brunette were 🥵 though
