If I ever get to interview Paul Mescal I will definitely bring up that we both played Javert in Les Misérables.

Anyone else who has us in their Top 5?

no surprise here - I will have to rewatch it but I wasn't as blown away as other were. But very keen to see it again
BEST FILM: The Brutalist
December 3, 2024 at 5:56 PM
'monumental' they say

actually, I got no notes on this one.

I liked this one, didn't love it as much as others did (mainly journalists)

here are a few more great International films

- Girl With the Needle
- The Seed of the Sacred Fig
- Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In
- The Beast
BEST INTERNATIONAL FILM: All We Imagine as Light

another film without Swiss distribution - baffling how late (or never) we get these films
BEST ACTRESS: Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Hard Truths
December 3, 2024 at 4:23 PM
another great pick that I see go all the way to an Oscar win but I have to give credit to two documentaries I loved even more than No Other Land, those being

- Black Box Diaries
- Daughters
BEST NON-FICTION FILM: No Other Land
December 3, 2024 at 4:06 PM
No distribution for this in Switzerland... so I'll have to wait until I can catch this on VOD in 2-3 months
BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY: Jomo Fray, Nickel Boys
December 3, 2024 at 3:55 PM
I liked Janet Planet but I'd have gone with other debuts like

- Didi
- Familiar Touch
- Good One
- On Falling
- Orion and the Dark
- The Piano Lesson
- Thelma
- Things Will Be Different
BEST FIRST FILM: Janet Planet
December 3, 2024 at 3:49 PM

not to be too bitter but sucks that we have been doing very in-depth festival recaps for Cannes, Venice, Zurich & Gent for years but somehow Sundance has always rejected us. I especially don't get why they limit the access for digital press so much...

Since I wanna abandon the other place as soon as possible I'm gonna bring my 'Favorite First Watch of x month' over here

here's January-October + a BlueSky exclusive November one at the end

I love movies so much... touched by how beautifully put together this is. Sad that it's Marc's final one but this will be played whenever I feel like I'm in a slump to watch movies

Defying Gravity is the best song in any musical ever, right?
November 28, 2024 at 8:21 PM
The songs in MOANA 2 are a step down & Lin M. Miranda-isms are very noticeable. Gets better as it gets on but still feels incredibly episodic. I enjoyed the sister dynamic & beautiful imagery. The forced 'this is a sequel so we need more side characters' don't work in its favor #filmsky

Critic screenings I’m attending keep ending in trash all over the floor and seats.

I’m going to make it my presidential platform that if you’re invited to a free screening with free concessions as a critic and you do this, a teenage usher gets to beat the shit out of you.
