I pondered this question for about 15 minutes because it’s an impossible question for me. so I decided it was best that I choose a film that hit me by surprise. I’m in the theater multiple times a week and film is a large driving factor in my life. I saw this in IMAX and had no idea what I was getting into. I was the youngest person by decades but I had a fucking BLAST. I couldn’t have named one song by the talking heads, but I left a huge fan. people were singing and dancing and loving the performance. It’s easily the most unique and impressive live performance I’ve ever watched! David Byrne is a national treasure and I applaud him for bringing this together. the music is great, it’s shot beautifully, and more surprises keep coming. The heads are part of my regular rotation now and this is one of the first movies I always recommend people. I felt like I was part of a religious experience and a real concert!
George Lucas film preceding a new hope is a familiar slice of life you only get to feel once or twice in your life. It feels nice to bask in it and slowly pace through it. a couple hours in and you’re asking yourself if anything has happened but you’re completely fine with it!
