Mine have stayed consistent for about 4 years now. I will show American psycho to everyone I know and gauge their reaction. Do they feel like this is a good representation of their life? Dp they focus on the sex and horror? Do they get the time period and jokes? Do they want to be Patrick Bateman? All very important questions.
Inglorious bastards is the most enjoyable movie you could watch. A serious of tense conversations that end in almost everyone dying and most of them are nazis. Absolutely perfect.
Under the silver lake is a weird one. I love the movie for what it’s trying to do and don’t fault it for not succeeding. I watch it every year around this period, just before the summer heatwave. It is an essential LA summer, conspiracy noir movie that has more good ideas than expectation. It still represents me perfectly.
Hot Fuzz is a new entry on the list, I’ve seen it a long time ago and loved it but just recently rewatched it and realized it’s everything I love. People going on with a system that doesn’t really serve them, petty small town politics, taking your life too seriously, fucking up and it not really mattering, the importance of friendship and tearing everything down. Absolutely lovely.
