“We only have two types of filmmakers in the world. 95% are filmmakers who are after what the audience wants. But another 5% says this is how I look, and it’s up to the audience to come and find me.”— Jafar Panahi

I like it less after learning about the Shadow of a Doubt influence. That is a much, much better movie. I’m not sure this one understood that one; it seems to take the popular surface-level understanding of the Hitchcock work and polish that up while completely ignoring its core themes.As an exercise in style, this is a massive success. But I do expect more substance from Park Chan-wook.

I mean, it’s a real feat that this is so compelling despite what felt to me like a very naive understanding of wrestling and coaching. You’re telling me Geeta had never heard of a fake-out maneuver before she was already doing international matches?

the documentary film editing sequence was actually so unique and interesting to me. I’m not sure I’ve seen that done in another work of popular media.

This review may contain spoilers. A wild one to watch as someone who has only seen a half dozen episodes of the original series and no TNG. Some fun moments! Kind of silly overall, though! Couldn’t believe how Kirk died, then he was brought back, and then I couldn’t believe how he died all over again. Did we forget how to do death scenes in ‘94?

Appreciate Tim assigning me a bunch of Civil War reading homework before this. Yet another case study in how you can’t understand America if you learned about the Civil War in a vacuum. You must understand how it continues to frame every facet of American life even today.

A ton of fun despite not being my favorite of the franchise. A lot of great zags in the back half.
