opsec warning for the thread: Letterboxd search feature was updated and it's now instantaneous to find a user's account based on their top four.

Guessing most people here shouldn't associate their Lbox account with themselves but should be careful before posting this info here.

    • The Human Condition, vol. 3 (the whole trilogy should be seen in order, but this part is peak)
    • Come and See
    • Ikiru
    • My Dinner with Andre

    These movies are so good they are life-affirming. They fill me with a will to change and to live beautifully. All are politically conscious, to varying degrees, too. I really think anyone would get something out of watching them

    Underrated Ghibli film, good picks overall

    Have you seen Nausicäa? That 1 and Mononoke are my favorites. Miyazaki is at his best when he centers environmentalism

    • Stalker: untouchable masterpiece of cinema
    • 3 Iron: understated film about shared connection between social outcasts
    • Seventh Continent: probably the most depressing film ever made but also one of the most beautiful
    • Rosemary's Baby: a couple try desperately to have a baby, then equally desperately not to

    The Motorcycle Diaries made me cry multiple times when I saw it, it's absolutely fenomenal.

    Howl's Moving Castle is just one of the most magical experiences I've ever had. I love this move to death 🥺

    I'm rethinking spider man, but I remember being utterly impressed with it on an artistic level.

    And well, Utena I can't do justice, it's just incredible after watching the anime.

    Mad Max Fury Road

    Serial Mom

    Infernal Affairs

    T2 Trainspotting

    I dont think these are my absolute favourites, I have a lot of four and a half stars and admittedly I haven't watched a lot of the "classics"
