Chocolat. Claire Denis. 1988. ★★★★★☆
Red Snapper: 😒
CM&C:XXXVI Fa yeung nin wa
Hmm….
For a Kai War Wong movie, this looks kinda… different…
Would I be paranoid if I started thinking that they put the wrong DVD in the cover?
Still not sure.
Oh, I don’t care. This is awesome.
In The Mood For Love. Kar Wai Wong. 2000. ★★★★★☆
Planter’s Punch: 😃
CM&C:XXXV Shall We Dance
There are many things I love about 30s musical comedies. Their verisimilitude is astounding. What you see here is the engine room of an ocean liner.
But you have to wonder whether the casting choice for the machine room is a commentary on something.
Wow. So machinery. Much technical.
Shall We Dance. Mark Sandrich. 1937. ★★★★★☆
Piña colada: 😃
CM&C:XXXIV Bottle Rocket
Bottle Rocket. Wes Anderson. 1996. ★★★☆☆☆
Perhaps I’m just generally down on the entire “hapless young-ish men fumble around” genre. Perhaps it’s just fatigue from seeing yet another Bechdel-test-failing movie. Perhaps this movie is good. But I don’t see it.
Pisco Sour: 😃
CM&C:XXXIII Menschen am Sonntag
Kids with their ghetto blasters at the beach. Tsk.
Menschen am Sonntag. Kurt Siodmak, Robert Siodmak, Edgar G. Ulmer, Fred Zinnemann & Rochus Gliese. 1930. ★★★☆☆☆
Batida de maracujá: 😃
