scala (2023) is a brilliant documentary about the scala cinema in london, and how it influenced a whole generation of creatives. absolutely brilliant film and made me reconsider how i look at movies generally. while we watched (2022) is the story of a ravish kumar, an indian news reporter trying to fight against the misinformation put out by the indian media and the pressure put on him by the government. squaring the circle (2022) is a really fun documentary if youāre into your classic rock. all about the group that designed half of the famous album covers from that period, and the story behind the group and the art. and lastly iāll say the sparks brothers (2021). just a brilliant display of how filmmaking can be used in a documentary. again, loads of fun, really beautiful shots, amazing lineup of interviewees. i hadnāt even heard of sparks before watching this but i was a big fan by the end.
I have watched a couple music documentaries recently, ones on Arthur Russell and Judee Sill, and have enjoyed them. They are somewhat formulaic biopics so they arenāt super hard to process but offer a lot of information on the artistry of a person I find interesting and their music plays in the background and it gets in my head! They are also usually pretty short so you can throw them on if you have a spare hour and a half.
Proud of it hehehe
Lowkey very stressed about school rn but sheās baller so idk thatās nice and Iām proud of myself. I especially like the tail :)
