1917 || Sam Mendes || 2019
I have no words (well actually I have a lot). The cinematography is nothing short of incredible. If there’s any awards season movie anyone HAS to see, it’s this one, I can’t recommend it enough.

Spies in Disguise || Nick Bruno, Troy Quane || 2019
Okay this movie was SO CUTE
The final fight was absolutely amazing, and Walter is 100% an alternate version of Peter Parker (which I guess makes Lance his Sam Wilson?)

Dolittle || Stephen Gaghan || 2020
F*ck the critics, this movie is fun.

Coming to America || John Landis || 1988
I love that in the credits every other character is played by Eddie Murphy or Arsenio Hall, that’s some legend sh*t.

Little Women || Greta Gerwig || 2019
In conclusion, Amy is my favorite, I stan Florence Pugh, I have now watched a movie with Timothée Chalamet, and this was a great film.

Jojo Rabbit || Taika Waititi || 2019
Out of all of the awards season movies, not enough people are talking about this one. The entire cast is f*cking brilliant, especially Scarlett Johansson and Taika Waititi.

Sullivan’s Travels || Preston Sturges || 1941
Yeah, yeah she’s a film student, get over it. I’m a sucker for old movies so naturally I enjoyed this one. It’s equal parts funny and serious, not to mention topical (not to go all film student on you)

Fruitvale Station || Ryan Coogler || 2013
This was a really well-made movie, especially given that it’s based on a true story. Plus, I’m always down to watch a good Michael B. Jordan film.

City of God || Fernando Meirelles || 2002
This movie was brutal. That’s it.

Four Good Days || Rodrigo García || 2020
This marks my first premier!! Kunis and Close were both fantastic, the script was not without its issues but still stellar, and I’m really hoping this movie gets picked up by someone.

Promising Young Woman || Emerald Fennell || 2020
This movie is nothing short of phenomenal. Fantastic performances from everyone involved, especially Carey Mulligan. Please, please go see this movie when it comes out, it’s a great one.

Palm Springs || Max Barbakow || 2020
This movie was so adorable. Andy Samberg was literal perfection, although I expect nothing less. It was a funny, feel-good romantic comedy with strong moments of drama.

The Truffle Hunters || Michael Dweck, Gregory Kershaw || 2020
This documentary was so aesthetically pleasing and the hunters with their dogs were so cute I can’t stress that enough, but oh good lord I was about to fall asleep so be prepared...

Some Kind of Heaven || Lance Oppenheim || 2020
What, and I cannot stress this enough, the fuck? Only in Florida, man. Aesthetically interesting for a documentary though.

The Night House || David Bruckner || 2020
The production design and sound design in this movie are phenomenal, and by phenomenal I of course mean terrifying at times. Note to self, never live in a lake house, like, ever.

Nine Days || Edson Oda || 2020
I am so rooting for this one to get picked up. A truly beautiful film unlike one I’ve ever seen before, where the end goal is life. Winston Duke is incredible and shines a light on mental health in a way that more movies should do.

In Bruges || Martin McDonagh || 2008
Colin Farrell was brilliant in this movie, and I probably laughed at it more than I should have but hey, it was funny and I had just pulled an all-nighter gimme a break

Birds of Prey || Cathy Yan || 2020
The first time I tried to watch this movie the projector broke. So, I stole one of the posters. The second time I tried, I actually got to watch it. The action was fantastic and production design incredible, 10/10.

P.S. I Still Love You || Michael Fimognari || 2020
Two things:
1) The only reason I wanted to watch this is because Jordan Fisher stole my heart in a freaking Dominos commercial
2) The only role Noah Centineo is acceptable in is Peter Kavinsky, it’s just a rule

Because watching a movie about a man who terrorizes his ex-girlfriend in her house while being stuck in my house is a great idea

The Social Network || David Fincher || 2010
1. Poor Andrew Garfield
2. Look Joe Mazzello!
3. I can barely handle one Armie Hammer on the screen, how do you expect me to deal with two?

True Romance || Tony Scott || 1993
This movie is fuckin’ wild. Brad Pitt’s character is high 24/7, Val Kilmer plays an imaginary Elvis in Christian Slater’s head, and I’m like 99% sure now that Gary Oldman is a chameleon. Now who wants to go eat some pie?
