There’s something haunting, almost sacred, about the way The Piano Lesson unfolds on screen—a reverence woven through every scene like it’s all wrapped in memory, a testament to where we come from and the people we’re bound to by blood and time. This isn’t your typical movie experience. It’s a blend of the theatrical and…
It’s always frustrating to sit through a movie that can’t seem to figure out what it wants to be. House of Spoils is exactly that. A movie that juggles genres and themes but never really commits to any of them, which, as you can imagine, leaves viewers not entirely satisfied with the experience. There’s a…
Rating: 9/10 Some films have this way of moving beyond the screen and taking root in your mind. Blink is one of those rare ones—a National Geographic gem that seems to reach deep inside you, stirring emotions you didn’t know were there and making you question what you thought you understood about life’s impermanence. To…
Imagine a time capsule cracked open, but instead of musty relics, it pours out notes, harmonies, and soul-shaking crescendos. Amazing Grace is that film, the one that pulls you back to 1972 and plants you in a small church in Los Angeles, heart racing, eyes wide, hands gripping the pew in front of you. It’s…
Martin Scorsese’s Mean Streets—what can be said that hasn’t already been spilled across decades of reviews, essays, and retrospectives? It’s not your typical gangster flick, and that’s putting it lightly. No glamorous mafioso sitting on a leather chair pontificating over loyalty and honor. No guns blazing in some operatic, slow-motion ballet. This is something messier,…
Let’s time-travel back to 1964, where the world was shifting, not just politically or culturally, but musically too. In the midst of Cold War tensions and social revolutions, four mop-topped lads from Liverpool landed in America, and the world went wild. The Beatles didn’t just change the charts—they changed everything. But this isn’t about the…
The Battle of Algiers isn’t your run-of-the-mill war movie. It doesn’t ask you to sit back, watch the explosions, and cheer for the heroes. Instead, it’s a film that pulls you into the thick of things, makes you squirm a bit, and doesn’t let you walk away with easy answers. It’s about the Algerian struggle…
It’s not every day you come across a film as captivating as Spirited Away. When I first watched it, I was blown away by how easily it draws you into a world so unlike anything you’ve ever seen. The story—a young girl named Chihiro being thrown into this strange, magical world where spirits, talking frogs,…
Let’s just say it: Duck Soup is a mess — a brilliant, chaotic, nonsensical mess that wraps its insanity around the viewer like a circus tent spun in a tornado. There’s really no way to describe this film by the Marx Brothers without admitting that it seems, at first glance, to be a complete and…
Some films have this uncanny way of reaching into the deep places of your heart without you realizing it — they draw out your own half-buried memories and present them back to you, dressed in a different story. That’s what Lady Bird feels like. From the very first scene, with the dramatic leap out of…
