Bonnie and Clyde - very entertaining, tho odd tone at times, but overall very nice w a GREAT ending

4/5

To Catch a Thief
8/10

Fun flick. Wish I caught this sooner.

one of the most stylish films oat.

Doesn't even matter really the plot isn't up there with with other Hitchcock. Grace Kelly, Cary Grant, South of France, super-rich, About a charismatic cat burglar and the even more charismatic character of Grace Kelly.

He just went there and turned everything but the plot up to 11. Love it for that.

If you want something similar watch Charade if you haven't yet!

Yea definitely. Usually the lack of an interesting plot turns me away from certain films or causes me to enjoy them less. Not this one though, kept my interest.

I’ll definitely take a look at that one too. Thanks for the recommendation.

Ghost World | 3.5/5

Death of d*** long

A24 do not miss

Yeah, this was my first Bergman, and he's a filmmaker I've been excited to get into, so I'm ready to sort of take my time and a***yze his movies.
And that's a really interesting point you make about how the theatricality works thematically. I think when I watched it, it kind of just felt weird and dated, and I didn't think about it too much further. But that's a really interesting interpretation that I'll have to think about when I rewatch.
Where would you suggest I go next in Bergman's filmography? I'm really interested in Wild Strawberries and Persona atm, especially Persona.

I think Wild Strawberries followed by Persona is a good strategy, you absolutely must see Persona. That film is also interested in theatrics (given the title), but it’s much more implicit and avoids the more ‘cheesy,’ dated as you say, theatrics that even Wild Strawberries features a little bit of. I don’t love Wild Strawberries (controversial I guess), but it’s definitely worth watching as long as you plan to do Persona eventually.

Watching this trifecta will definitely let you know if the rest are personally worthwhile.

Yeah, a more implicit theatricality sounds closer to what I think I expected before watching The Seventh Seal, and might be more to my taste, though I try not to be close-minded to that sort of thing.
Mostly why I want to watch WS before Persona is because I've heard that it's a more accessible film, so I figured it might be a better intro to his style before Persona. And I've mostly heard great things about it, although it doesn't sound as fascinating as Persona does.

Paris Is Burning (1990) - another basically perfect documentary, this time about late 80s New York ballroom culture

I finally saw it and omg. I didn’t think it would be this intense despite reading some reviews. It’s such a wild ride and I loved every minute of it.
