Getting On. Susan Tully. 2012.
This is a really uninformed opinion, as this is the first episode I’ve seen. And this was the last episode from the third series. So it might be brilliant, and I’m just not getting it. But I’m unlikely to get around to watching the entire series, because it’s filmed in really nausea-inducing shakycam. It almost did me in.

Moonrise Kingdom. Wes Anderson. 2012.
All of Anderson’s films I seen have been good (except Bottle Rocket, which was awful), but I think this one is probably the best one. So funny.

I found Genevive Goes Boating, so that’s one more down.
I got a new lens for my Blackmagick Pocket Cinema camera:
Yeah, I know. But it’s a 7-14mm lens, so I can finally get the entire stage in frame.
I don’t think I quite got peeps in focus, though. And I should have used my external microphone, because the internal microphone is awful: Whenever there’s a loud sound, everything goes CRUNCH.
We Need To Talk About Kevin. Lynne Ramsay. 2011.
I remember reading about this film way back then in 2010 and thinking it sounded awful. So I was prepared for a Benjamin Button sized turd.
This is a kinda good film, and perhaps an important film, but it’s such an enormous downer. And the archer thing is just silly. Perhaps the film-makers wanted to be original, but it’s silly.
The moral is: Don’t have kids.
