In French. 71 minute running time. Animated. When the French do psychedelic drugs, movies like this one are the result. It made me wonder if the Czech animators also did drugs or just brought the French druggies’ visions to life? This was trippy and not terrible, but also not something I’d recommend, unless you’re interested in druggie movies from the 1960s and 70s. I would not recommend watching this under the influence of anything stronger than ginger ale.
Vous partir vite!
In Mayan or some other ancient language? 138 minute running time so way way too long … I watched the first 20 minutes or so then went to 16x fast forward for the rest … Mel Gibson likes making these ultra-violent warrior spirit / torture pr0n movies, over and over again. Might have been better if not so long, or at least bearable, but this was sensory overload, no thanks, you can give it a miss.

When I first heard this song I thought it was Rachael Price and Lake Street Dive, but no, it’s someone named Rachel Mazer and her copycat Lake Street Dive band with “Is It So Wrong?” … nevertheless, I dig it:
Adrianne Lenker with “Zombie Girl” … I dig it:

In Japanese. 180 minute running time, that’s right, THREE HOURS LONG … this was boring and tedious, I hated it and call bullshit. No idea why it’s gotten so much critical acclaim and a Criterion release … must be the Haruki Murakami short story connection. John Farr LOVED it, which is such a disappointment. Full red, avoid!
Before she inexplicably dropped dead
In Persian. 100 minute running time so the perfect length. I really enjoyed this one … it’s a documentary of sorts but with several re-enacted sections, though it makes you wonder what’s documentary footage and what’s re-enacted … grabs you from the get-go and holds your interest the entire time … you get some real insight into Iranian society and culture … this is a green-go, recommended movie. John Farr also liked it.
Pain and suffering
117 minute running time so 20 minutes too long … Bette Davis was sort of homely, I don’t know why she was such a big Hollywood star … Warner Brothers studio pic … Gladys Cooper plays a good mother from hell but I wasn’t super interested in this … a love story from a repressed era, didn’t click with me 80 years later.
Heavy smoker
Big fan of Alice Phoebe Lou and Ziv Yamin … “honey thighs” is their best song as strongboi:
