  1. The revitalized #DirectorsVillage isn't officially open yet, but we were treated to an advance 4K screening of #Akira (which I've never seen on the big screen). Kodansha manga editor Takeshi Katsurada joined us in person to introduce the iconic anime to a packed house before watching it with us! #letterboxdfriday #LastFourWatched 🪓🤠🏍️🛗 #cinemastodon

  2. Only four this week because I've been busy, which is also why I forgot to post this yesterday.
    Anyway, it's three new releases (which I saw all on the same day, by the way), and one movie that I wanted to watch again to see if my rather low rating would still stand.

    Coyote vs. Acme — 4 stars
    The Dog Stars — 2½ stars
    One Night Only — 3½ stars
    The Shape of Water — 3 stars

  3. George Miller's surprisingly sincere exploration of storytelling, connection, and companionship

    Wes Craven’s meta-commentary on horror tropes and sequels, now numbering several Craven-less sequels

    Rinse repeat
    Rinse repeat (with lost momentum)

  5. Bit of a wuxia-fest for my recent birthday which was super fun, and this time of year I'm always tempted to binge Wong Kar-Wai's filmography.

  6. İzlediğim son dört film, hepsi içinde bozkırda tek başına gezen bir atın olduğu filmler
    #lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday #letterboxd

  7. Psycho (4.5 stars) - Really great, only loses half a star for the end when the psychiatrist explains everything.
    Pinocchio Unstrung (2 stars) - Just... not my thing.
    Triangle of Sadness (3.5 stars) - Really liked some parts of this, didn't care for others!
    The Secret World of Arietty (4.5 stars) - Delightful.

  8. Happy #LetterboxdFriday ! My #LastFourWatched is mostly 3.5 stars:

    Redline (2009) - 3.5/5, simplistic story but spectacular animation

    Pushing Hands (1991) - 3.5/5, great premise but a little jumbled

    A Different Man (2024) - 3.5/5, another great premise but too abstract for me

    Battle of the Worlds (1961) - 3/5, Claude Rains meets Antonio Margheriti

    Happy viewing!

  13. Sometimes you can just watch a film that everyone says is very good and it turns out to be very good! #LastFourWatched

  14. I haven’t been doing this most weeks, but I wanted to celebrate that I’ve been watching movies for Modular Film Festival.

    The Diamond Arm - the Mosfilm YouTube channel calls this a detective comedy, but there’s not a detective and nobody detects anything. Crime comedy would probably be a better category.

    West Side Story - beautiful to look at, but I have strong opinions on how to adapt Romeo and Juliet which this doesn’t meet on a story level.

    Permanent Vacation - Jarmusch gets better than this later. Feels like a glorified student film, because it kind of is.

    AL’S BRAIN: A 3-D Journey through the Human Brain with ‘Weird Al’ Yankovic - Weird Al put this on his YouTube channel and so I watched it. Good fun.

  15. Who needs a coherent plot, Wolfenstein, A normal night clubbing, Director vs. Producers #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched

  16. #LetterboxdFriday

    HARLAN COUNTY USA 🇺🇸

    Seminal documentary about a coal mining strike with some marvellous folk music

    ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

    THE EEL 🇯🇵

    Strange story of a murderer released on probation who opens a barber shop. Yes, I am underselling it with that description

    ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

    CHARISMA 🇯🇵

    Slippery, unpredictable, somewhat dreamlike Kiyoshi Kurosawa drama

    ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

    BEING FRANK 🇬🇧

    Documentary about Chris Sievey, the man under Frank Sidebottom's massive head. A lovely tribute to an obsessively creative oddball

    The Horseman on the Roof - Rambling swashbuckling historical drama by Jean-Paul Rappeneau, who died this week at 92. Atcghdctimdcut was the most expensive French film ever made. It’s all over the place, and includes Olivier Martinez trying to save Juliette Binoche from cholera by [peers over glasses] stripping her naked and vigorously rubbing her. There’s a good cat in it but the film is a bit dull, all said.

    I Want Your Sex - This new Gregg Araki is such a fun, exuberant film. Cooper Hoffman is a hapless sub dominated by Olivia Wilde as a haughty artist. It’s very funny, well written, AND has a blooper reel during the end credits. So enjoyable.

    The Kreutzer Sonata - Very early Rohmer. Essentially a silent film with a voiceover. Based on a Tolstoy story. Men are trash, 1956-style. Featured Godard smoking and looking damn cool, and Rohmer being tall in a good suit.

    The Unfaithful Wife - Mid-period Chabrol that’s being given a theatrical rerelease. Stéphane Audran is gorgeous in this icy-cold murder tale.

  23. Watched #12AngryMen for the first time, I found the 1997 version better. I wonder if my opinion would have been different had I watched the 1957 version before the 1997 version.

  24. #LetterboxdFriday and a somewhat... corrected #lastfourwatched as two of the films in my "Recent Activity" at Letterboxd is just Blu ray-extras that I wouldn't count.

    So, my "real" last four:
    Sabata
    King of New York
    Cemetary Without Crosses
    Sherlock, Jr.
