relating to the palo alto feeling<<
This is actually the first one I ever did but never posted it here n I didn’t realize. Yellow!
Once I asked a cinematographer what equipment I needed to shoot my short film and they said "passion and a camera."
🖤 Love this film.
A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014) dir. Ana Lily Amirpour
Why is it that almost every queer film (not movie...but film) is a tragedy??
Why can't we have beautiful poetic queer films that end well? Why can't we have them get together in the end and live out a beautiful life??
Why is it that at the end of the 'classics' the guy gets the girl and they have a family or get married, but at the end of queer films someone (or everyone) dies or leaves??? It's not fair!
I want to see more films like God's Own Country (2017) I loved this because it was the first film I saw that had a beautiful ending that for once didn't leave me broken on the floor. Please show me poetry in motion, or just something queer that isn't porn with a plot, then show me a happy ending!
While I agree that happy endings can't happen in every movie and for some stories it's literally impossible to have one, can we please see more ' life together with a home and warmth ' endings for queer films. I'm getting so sick of the 'Call me by your name' and the 'Brokeback Mountain' endings out there.
Don't we deserve to have a beautiful end too??
Why must queer films make it seem like it's impossible to make it last? While I think 'porn with a plot' and tragedies have their own space (as they should) I think there needs to be more happy endings in cinema for queers as well. Just like not every film is Romeo and Juliet, not everything needs to be a Blue is the Warmest Colour retelling. Why can't we let the queers have love forever ? Why can't they just be?
If they aren't pining hopelessly after someone who'll never love them, they're catching feelings for people who abandon them eventually, if it's not that then everything in the world is raining down on them and trying to stop them from being together and if by some miracle they overcome that and they fall in love with someone?? ... that person dies 2 fucking months later.
I understand that queers face more resistance than most heteros but come on.....can we please just have some fluff too?? 🥺
Or maybe it's just me who hasn't been exposed to enough queer cinema idk..

will always be a summer rewatch 💭
this film never left me after the first time i watched it
Movies to watch if you love Pride and Prejudice
1.Bright Star (2009)
This one is a beautiful, quiet and poetic movie about the love affair between Poet John Keats and Fanny Brawne.
2. Becoming Jane (2007)
This is an autobiographical movie about Jane Austen and her romantic relationship with Tom Lefroy. It is not entirely based on facts, since we know so little about some aspects of Austens private life.
3. A room with a view (1985)
This movie is a lovely and incredibly acted adaption of E.M. Forster's novel. It stars a young Daniel Day-Lewis and Helena Bonham Carter.
4. Finding Neverland (2004)
This film has to be one of my all time favourites: it is about J. M. Barrie and his relationship with a family who inspires him to create Peter Pan. It is a heart-wrenching, magical tale of love, fiendships and the wonders of the world.
My favourite dark mystery / horror movies
The secret window (2004)
This Stephen King adaptation starring a brilliant Johnny Depp is a hugely underrated psychological thriller. You will be glued to your seat an constantly question what is true and what's not.
Identity (2003)
If you like unexpected twists and turns, this is the one for you: the film follows ten strangers in an isolated hotel, who are temporarily cut off from the rest of the world, and are mysteriously killed off one by one
Life (2017)
A crew of the International space station is looking for evidence of life on mars. What they don't know is, that they are about to discover something that will threaten their lives and the whole human existence.
10 cloverfield lane (2016)
After surviving an accident, Michelle wakes up to find herself in an underground bunker. A man who lives there tells her that a massive chemical attack has left the air unbreathable, and their only hope of survival is to remain inside. Over time Michelle seems to question what is true and what's not.
Sunshine (2007)
This one has to be one of the most underrated science fiction movies ever. The soundtrack and cinematography are breathtakingly gorgeous: Taking place in the year 2057, the story follows a group of astronauts on a dangerous mission to reignite the dying Sun.
Room 1408 (2007)
A highly underrated adaptation of Stephen King's works starring John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson: Ignoring the warnings of the hotel manager , a succesfull writer learns the meaning of real terror when he spends the night in a reputedly haunted room
Crimson peak (2015)
A great ghostly tale by the master of horror himself, Guillermo del Toro. Starring Tom Hiddleston, Jessica Chastain and Mia Wasikoswka this story is a great take on classic gothic Fiction. The set-design is phenomenal!

Most underrated movies of the last decade
1. Filth (2013)
One of the greatest movies of the last decade, maybe McAvoy's best performance ever: A tragic, funny, absolutely unapologetic movie about the downfall of a scottish police officer.
2. Swiss Army Man (2016)
I promise that you have never seen a movie like this before. It is absolutely strange, macabre and loaded with dark humor: a man stranded on a deserted island tries to keep his sanity by talking to a corpse (Daniel Radcliffe).
3. Rush (2013)
Rush is a 2013 biographical sports film centred on rivalry between two Formula One drivers, the British James Hunt and the Austrian Niki Lauda during the 1976 Formula 1 motor-racing season. One of the best Sport Dramas out there.
4. Mother! (2017)
I know some people dislike this movie but I think it is one of Aronosfky's masterpieces. A political, philosphical and brutal allegory of the destruction of our planet brilliantly acted by Jennifer Lawrence.
5. The Flowers of War (2011)
Watching this movie was one of the most eye-opening experiences for me: An American (Christian Bale) tries to protect a group of Chinese students and prostitutes from Japanese soldiers in 1937 Nanjing.
6. Sheperds and Butchers (2016)
A different kind of "true crime story": A lawyer takes on the murder case of a prison guard traumatized by the executions he took part in.
7. Slow West (2015)
The cinematography in this is beautiful: A bounty hunter keeps his true motive a secret from the naive Scottish teenager he's offered to serve as bodyguard and guide while the youth searches for his beloved in 1800s Colorado.
8. Enemy (2013)
This movie will mess with your head: A college Professor (Jake Gyllenhaal) discovers a man who looks and talks exactly like him. A strange tale of what is true and what is fictional begins to unravel.
9. La grande bellezza (2013)
This arthouse movie is for the ones who look for deep conversations, philosopical questions and the horrors and beauties of everyday life. A slow paced and hugely moving tale about modern italy.
10. The Lighthouse (2019)
Everything about this movie is top notch: the acting, the story, the visuals. A modern masterpiece that has the chance of becoming a classic: Two lighthouse keepers are stranded on an island as they slowly dive into insanity.
