Didn't really take to Nosferatu, was on a Kidman whim tonight and had only just found out about Dark City last night and so have just put it on.

Need to rewatch Dark City. I remember LOVING IT, but I saw it about 15 years ago. Hopefully it has aged well.

To Die For remains my favourite Nicole performance. ICONIC :disco:

I first discovered DC (the movie :basil:) via a youtube upload suggesting it bombed because it was overshadowed by The Matrix (1999), but I do have to laugh as surely it was in no way ever going to be a box office behemoth. I loved how it looks, Sutherland is terrible in it (which is no bad thing here actually) and Connelly can't sing, the green dress needed more (especially after Uma Thurman's Poison Ivy in Batman & Robin (1997)), and overall she lacks any proper femme fatal sting that would have properly nudged her role into semi iconic status. Loved the film noir feel to it. I'll definitely be watching it again.

Random plug, but a good friend of mine has just launched an Oscars Checklist website that’s really useful if you’re on a completionist kick.

Oscar Nominations 2025 - Oscars Checklist And Predictions

2025 Oscar Nominations Checklist and Predictions. Cast your predictions ballot and compete with your friends live during the upcoming ceremony.
oscarschecklist.com oscarschecklist.com

It’ll be particularly valuable when the 2025 nominees are announced, but it goes right back to the beginning and includes options to create your own filters. So for example if you decided to make a project of watching all Meryl Streep’s nominated performances, or every Best International winner, you could very easily create a watch list.

Have you seen "Brazil" before?

It's ominous yet ridiculous at the same time. In many ways quite prescient & a very TOPICAL WATCH given current events.

I Am Love (Luca Guadagnino) - 2009, A

an even more beautiful film than I'd remembered. the packing scene with the housekeeper destroys me a bit.

My Cousin Rachel (2017)

I'd read the book years ago but couldn't remember a THING. What a STRANGE AFFAIR this was, with weird camera angles galore & oddly JITTERY performances from everyone.

Clearly a stylistic choice on behalf of the director, but at times it felt like I was watching a French & Saunders-esque PARODY rather than a serious drama.
