La maman et la putain (1973) (9/10)

Longest film I have watched in theater. And, also one of the best.

I do not know if you are still active, but I wanted to share an interesting news story in my province that relates to a comment you made a while back on Ruben Östlund's film The Square (2017). It must have been after I saw his other Palme d'Or winning film Triangle of Sadness (2022), a film I did not like. 

Anyway, recently, a controversial Mexican artist called Silverio performed at a music festival. Long story, short he kissed two festival-goers against their consent during his performance. The festival-goers (a man and a woman) who were outraged, complained to the organizers of the festival about the agression. Silverio's performance was interrupted. Apologies were issued, etc. It reminded me of a scene you described in The Square (2017). A scene in which a circus actor, imitating a monkey, tried raping a woman as part of his art performance (only to be beaten up by other guests afterwards). I think I complained that Ruben Ostlund's example was exaggerated and unrealistic. At the light of the incident I just described to you, I think I was wrong. Ruben Ostlund's example is not so far-fetched, it nearly happened in my own province a couple of days ago, and the response of the story's protagonist was similar to the one depicted in Ostlund's films. I might have to give Ostlund a little more credit, his films even though they are satires accurately depicts real issues.

The Flash (2023)

Ezra Miller is irritating. Michael Keaton & Sasha Calle are really good.

7/10

Entergalactic (2022), 9/10. I have no problem with it getting an animated Emmy nomination despite being a movie and not a TV series. 

I am embarassed to say that Christopher Nolan's film, Oppenheimer, is really good. So, I was wrong. And, I guess that my old username still checks out. I watched it in 70mm IMAX. Despite not having the best seat (front row), I really enjoyed the film. It might be one of Nolan's greatest.

Note 1:  Clearly, the sole purpose of the R-rating was to show Florence Pugh's clevage. It had nothing to do with the subject being "dramatic" because there are not much graphic scenes in the film.

Note 2: Barbie fans, you can wear rose if you want, but do not block the corridor taking pictures.

Oppenheimer (2023) (8/10)

Facing the same issue in my account to format the new location. How can I setup it on my account? Can you guide me regarding this?

Friday:

Oppenheimer (2023), 70MM. 10/10.

Saturday:

Wham! (2023). 7/10 documentary wise but since it's Wham, elevated to 8/10.

Sunday:

Rock 'n' Roll Nightmare (1987). Pretty sure it's a rewatch. 1/10. 10/10 for the Rifftrax commentary track.

The Tomorrow War (2021)

Highly entertaining. Better than expected.

7/10

Oi
