There’s a bundle « corporate thriller » on Criterion. I’ve watch antitrust which didn’t scratch my hitch but is a cool view of the Silicon Valley 2000s culture

In The International Clive Owen play an Interpol investigator that tail an assassin into money laundering, gun selling bank. The wiki explain it better than me but watch out for the spoilers

So Criterion have a channel where they put people in their DVD library and ask them what they would watch, the last one was with John Hamm and he propose this movie

Great flick, their some good laughs and it make me think of 99 francs

Oscar Best animation picture. Made in Montreal

Watched Nobody(2021) by Ilya Naishuller.

Found on a bundle on Criterion Channel called « Stunts! » for this month.

Cool movie, we’ve seen the story a couple of times : aging stunt man want to prove himself in front of a new generation

But they broke two records doing the movie and that’s pretty cool

If you like Les Demoiselles de Rochefort [the young girls of Rochefort] by Jacques Demy. This one by Chantal Akerman is a must watch.

With the explosion of « Pro man » podcaster and Masculinity poser I find it important to revisit some movies that talk about hyper masculinity

It’s that time of the year (at least in Northern America) for the Hallmark slop that we all love ! What are your prefer Hallmark style movies ?

I’ll start suggesting: The Knight before Christmas

Rules of Living, a Japan–Canada feature film that won Best Feature Comedy at its world premiere and more. It’s a bilingual character-driven dramedy set in Japan about rediscovering yourself in midlife and finding connection when you least expect it.

If you're interested in films set in Japan, cross-cultural stories, or heartfelt character dramas, I definitely recommend checking it out. Found the movie online here https://whop.com/mirus-pictures/ and got a 10% discount code (TAKE10)

Synopsis:

A director discovers a box of videotapes showing the creepy film project of two students that stars a local horror legend.

**Review: **

At the risk of sounding melodramatic Butterfly Kisses is a love letter to the found footage sub-genre of horror movies. Like many others, I discovered found footage through Blair Witch Project (it actually wasn't the first, that would be The Last Broadcast). Since the watching Blair Witch Project as a child, I've probably seen about 200+ found footage features.

For me personally, Butterfly Kisses pushes the often formulaic and cliche found footage genre forward. Without getting into details, this is almost a deconstruction of the found footage formula. The layers slowly unravel as you go deeper into the story.

Butterfly Kisses is also a very personal movie for the director and the some of themes seem to reflect his struggles in the movie industry. Myers unfortunately passed away by suicide a few years ago. He was participant in in r/foundfootage and seemed to genuinely appreciate the horror movie community.

I will note that the early part of the film might give you the impression that this is a relatively typical found footage x mockumentary style film. This is just the beginning, thing get really crazy and in ways you might not expect for found footage movie.

As you go through the film, you'll notice a subtle "breaking the fourth wall" theme. It's never explicit or overbearing, it's almost unnoticeable. This motif is best characterized by an early line from one of the lead characters "Don't watch! Huh? Pretty eerie, but isn't that how all good horror movies start? Little mystery, little riddle..."

While I would argue that Butterfly Kisses is not a typical found footage film, if you do not enjoy the concept, you probably won't like like this feature. That being said, I would recommend giving this a go.

Recommended for fans of horror movies, found footage movies and mystery themes.

"Mort Rainey, a writer just emerging from a painful divorce with his ex-wife, is stalked at his remote lake house by a psychotic stranger and would-be scribe who claims Rainey swiped his best story idea. But as Rainey endeavors to prove his innocence, he begins to question his own sanity."

This hilarious animated short is based on the century-old folk song of the same name. Old Mr. Johnson makes increasingly manic attempts to rid himself of a little yellow cat that just won't stay away...

Great movie, 7min well invested

Just heard the death of Watkins this last Thursday. God Bless and rest in peace
