went to a free screening of The Battle of Algiers last night. meant to see it for years but there’s just something about watching something on a big screen and traveling there that is so much better. I went with my girlfriend, lover, and my lover’s friend from out of town. definitely worth a watch. it’s pretty dense even as a loosely based historical film but it makes me want to read more about Algerian history.

I had this movie recommended to me by a teacher in high school (shoutout Mr. Hicks!) and I bought the criterion physical copy. I absolutely loved it! It is one of my favorite movies to recommend to people wanting to dive into French cinema.

Saw this Bertolucci movie over the weekend and liked it quite a lot... yes I watched it bc NYT said it was the much better french/American version of Saltburn and that is correct… Impossible to find on streaming services for some reason so I had to watch it the illegal way with completely out-of-sync subtitles but it was worth it to me, perverted little freak that I am

Viewed this flick at Anthology Film Archives on Thursday night. Incredible movie about a donkey, but mostly just life - joys and sorrows and loss and love. It touched me deeply.
