The Master will be vindicated as one of the last great American films before we lost the thread. That film is just character and liquid narrative and cinematic magic. No conclusion, no message. One of the last masterpieces in an endless 3 Billboards era of Dramedies With Messages

takeaway from contemporary american indie film: There is a lot of nuance to identity and maybe incidents of violence, but that's okay, in the right context, but also maybe it is not, too.
takeaway from The Master: Pained and flawed people like to poison each other and are doomed

Makes you want paint thinner, psycho religious extremism, all kinds of poison. Real artistic strength

Phantom Thread is also really good. It Follows is the last good horror before it got gentrified.

It was a bold experiment in attempting to replace an interesting story or discernible plot or relatable characters with Acting but I think turned out sort or meh. Like the thing about Golden Age great films is they had scripts

3 Billboards was such an insanely bad movie. I will always support anyone preaching the gospel

Speaking of threads though, phantom thread is flawless. I prefer the master, but I can't name one fault with phantom thread. It's good and nice.
