i mean in terms of portrayal and and presentation , the depths and contradictions to the people within her films portrayal was probably the better word for it but that's what i mean

man all the stuff to do with the daughter's university class and they talk about the IMF and how the global south still has this debt to pay to the west and how bullshit it all is. I remember thinking first time i saw that was like "you mean to tell me some little French woman was addressing...

I think the other thing i like about Denis is like she's a director whose got such a strong voice and is so deeply interrogative within her work that like asking her certain questions about it is tedious. She doesn't suffer fools and there's an searing intensity in her movies which are 2...

i can't think of a movie that's done this where its worked

i've never read any Denis Johnson but i hear Jesus Son is really good

what you don't remember the fact that Christopher Lambert of all people delivers a great performance in it?

didn't even cross my mind

so what nobody gonna talk about how her movies capture people from minority groups and backgrounds or is that gonna be me again?

i mean sure...whatever i was offering other suggestions aside from Travail

how come? honestly from the premise of it, it makes total sense that she would take a chance at it

pick from the two i suggested on here or maybe High Life that was the one that got me into her (she got a decent performance out of Andre 3000!) i like chocolat but her later stuff is just that more interesting and developed to me. that said Isaach de Bankole is great in it, he's amazing

it is and it'll also serve as reminder of exactly when Zoom became a part of "the workplace" much like the printer and the much vaunted water cooler

some people will say Trouble Every Day but that movie is more of an anomaly in her and only looks and feels the way it does cause its her interpreting that kind of horror material. But i'll say this all the movies i've seen of hers even the ones that i didn't like as much there's always been a...

i mean everything was touched by COVID directly and indirectly forget film/culture its hit the world at large if you want another Denis to check out i'd say 35 shots of rum is a good one that's my favourite of hers that i've seen, Bastards is a very angry movie but i really like that one it's...

have this on my mind don't know why as i don't particularly like it (worst beat on the album produced by Kanye aswell) probably because that new Blackstar album came out (its middling just like the first album was in all honesty) but i think "The New Danger vs Electric Circus" might be the...

I say this though walking back to Blackhorse Road at 2 in the morning when there's nobody about its just you and the silence its nice, good peace of mind where its just you the wind the flats way in the distance and the odd taxi cab still trundling along trying to get patrons back home

Was at this warehouse rave ting down Walthamstow last night cause i really just wanted to find something to do on a Saturday, part of my education on me learning how to DJ but also my compulsion to challenge myself, get out of my comfort zone try new things etc. Was able to find the place but...

@shakahislop you ever seen any Denis? she's not a "slow cinema" director but there's alot of things in her movies aesthetic wise that i think you'd get alot out of

i'm a big fan alot of her films look incredible and you can not only thank her but her usual cinematographer Agnes Godard for that aswell, Barry Jenkins is a big fan of hers and while i still haven't seen Moonlight i did see If beale street could talk and it definitly bore her mark The thing...
