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…
There’s a distinct kind of story that sneaks up on you — the kind that doesn’t just tell you about life, but makes you feel it reverberating in your bones. Past Lives is one of those films. It’s not flashy or dramatic; it doesn’t offer easy resolutions or grand gestures. What it does is far…
Few movies reach out and grip you in ways that linger long after you’ve turned off the screen. Most simply offer a fleeting escape from the mundane. Then there are films like Days of Heaven. It’s more than just a movie—it’s an experience that sweeps you away with the force of a prairie wind, depositing…
Imagine a world of dreams, secrets, and untamed ambition—where glitz and glamour mask deceit and decay. This is the realm that Mank brings to life, but don’t be fooled by the nostalgic allure of black-and-white frames or the sparkle of old Hollywood’s Golden Age. David Fincher’s Mank is no ordinary film, nor is it just…
