priscilla is my favorite film of the year. there's nothing like sofia coppola bringing this memoir to life on screen 💌 cailee spaeny and jacob elordi are just perfect.
when nicole kidman says 'we come to this place for magic' she meant this scene in dune part two. i literally watch this scene smiling with tears in my eyes lmao
we are all sad margot robbie worked w/ david o russell and i know taylor swift is an easy target, but QUESTION THE MEN TOO! this is the third film in a row rami malek has worked w/ an abuser... like christian bale witnessed DOR screaming at amy adams. dont just question the women
timothée chalamet’s performance in dune two will go down in history honestly.
his physical performance in this last 30 minutes is incredible to watch. the transition of (small desert) mouse to basically a predator about to attack his prey.
the zone of interest team at every opportunity has discussed how the story told in their film is what’s happening in gaza and to palestinians right now.
Thank you James Wilson for saying this. A part of me is shocked the BBC actually showed it, the bar for recognising Arab peoples as human beings is so low
i cried so much watching

never has a studio film so expertly explored the burden women carry in everyday life (in any role in their lives!) as a mother, a working woman, a woman (!!) i had a mini breakdown. this barbie is sad but so thankful for this film

is a pink spectacular, original, feminist film that’s not only hilarious and smart, but serves as an existential crisis on the experience of being a woman. Read the review from

this is such dangerous rhetoric to publish. it’s infuriating to see a major trade publish any piece like this. jonathan glazer’s speech was not only the most important of the 2024 oscars but probably since the 1973 oscars. i’m jewish & i completely agree with everything he said.

did y’all watch a different version of dune part two or yall just hate austin butler so much you can’t look past it. like that was austin skarsgård speaking
its a real shame to see alexander payne here instead of idk martin scorsese, chis nolan, greta gerwig, sofia coppola, todd haynes, av rockwell, yorgos lanthimos, jonathan glazer... there are SO many directors to have included instead of this man

I saw DUNE: PART TWO in IMAX 70mm for the last time before it leaves IMAX theaters. What an astounding experience. The scene where Paul rides the worm for the first time and the climatic battle are breathtaking in the format. It’s really the most optimal way to see the film.
this scene really broke me. the weight of the situation on joe, joe wanting to bond with his son but the burden only a parent can understand if you’re being open or putting too much on your child, and his son’s pain of understanding the nature of his parents relationship ❤️🩹
the rooftop scene from may december is one of the best scenes from any movie this past year. the implications of it are so quietly devastating and both gabriel chung and charles melton play their parts so well

a film about freeing yourself from expectations and letting yourself be anything. i’ve never seen a film truly explain being a woman and our experience so well! never saw that coming from a barbie movie!
bringing this back because the academy museum was showing jonathan glazer’s speech on their giant screen ahead of the zone screening on saturday so some people in programming know he spoke the truth and it’s important to see 🤍
i gotta say… i really think timothée chalamet deserves actual oscar buzz for his performance in dune part two. i can’t stop thinking about what he pulls off and it’s just…. incredible
This 'Zone of Interest' VFX reel really is super-cool, in terms of showing camera gear/audio equipment paint-outs, which were so crucial to telling the story of the film
@oneofusvfx
rachel mcadams just communicates so much in her tone as a mother trying to not put her child in a horrible mindset but also trying to be honest, as a hurt daughter and as a woman who loves her partner. should be in the conversation!!!!
what makes austin butler a movie star is the real eye contact, the hand hold, the interaction feels real in the moment. leo in titanic kind of momentum im sorry if you don’t see it!!!
