This is my dadโs favorite movie of all time (2000s version). We watched it a lot when I was a kid but I only remembered bits of it. Recently I read the book, became obsessed with the story and rewatched it. I have to say it is severely underrated and follows the book as close as it can for about a 2hr film. The ending of the movie is much more satisfying than in the book.

It's the best adaptation I've ever seen of one of my all-time favorite stories. It looks beautiful and I love the score

My dad brought me to see this movie on release, I was 10. Now 17 years later on second watch this movie is a perfect potrayal of post irony and post-postmodernism. Similar to how Shakespeare was seen as low-brow, but becomes genre defining-thatโs this film.

there's nothing better for our current short and shorter attention spans than a good (very) long movie. yesterday I watched milos forman's Amadeus (1984) for the first time and truly cannot believe it took me this long. A spectacle from start to finish - which made the 3 hours absolutely fly by. maybe I'll upgrade to sergey bondarchuk's War and Peace next.

Iโve been rewatching his shows and falling in love with his work, yet again. One of the coolest men who have ever lived and has inspired me throughout my entire life. If I am ever not singing the praises of this man, something is deeply wrong with me. Now the question is: what is his best show?

It is my belief that so many people would be less lonely if they invited their friends to do their mundane errands and chores together. Dont have time to see your friends, cant afford to go out to socialize? Invite your friends to things you already will be doing and it ease some of the pain of the responsibilities. Or call someone to come over if you made a little too much for dinner. here is what I shared tonight: chicken thighs, fairy tale eggplant, fennel salad, and a nice groleau red wine
