Serendipitously November was already planned for Mira Nair. Watched Mississippi Masala, definitely a strong start

Chungking Express - while I understand this happens in the same space as Fallen Angel the vibes for these stories definitely make sense as separate films. Definitely potential to be a background just vibes film for me

November - Wong Kar-Wai. Started with Fallen Angel (should have done Chungking Express, but the internet lied about it being available). I enjoy a little character exploration and the juxtaposition of the two main characters demeanors.

Inland Empire - enjoyed a lot of the camera choices, longer than it needed to be

This month is David Lynch. Started with Blue Velvet - most of my Lynch experience is Twin Peaks and this feels very in-line with that. Excited to get to some of his stranger things

Lost in Translation - there is a subtle happening in the nothing is actually happening and I can get why people like it, but it’s not what i’m looking for in a movie

We never got the clear hamburger or hot dog style answer

August is Sofia Coppola. Started with Marie Antoinette which has been on the list forever. Visually really enjoyed it. Enjoyed Kirsten Dunst’s performance, but the whole thing is way too nice to the french royalty.

Full Metal Jacket - a movie I’ve seen bits of before. Definitely seeing some strong themes emerging from Kubrick’s work

July is Kubrick - started with Eyes Wide Shut. This movie is not meant for me. Like yeah, of course the sex party people staged everything, you’re an obviously vanilla guy in over his head just because his wife had a sexual desire beyond him

Pink Flamingos - the embodiment of what i assume conservatives believe queer people want the world to be

Tonight was Polyester, had a pretty fun time with this one
