The most “Franklin” movie ever.
I owe a lot to how Phantom Thread asks me to take a left turn in my life. Middle school me would not believe how much he would love romance films such as: In the Mood For Love and Before Trilogy. I think at the heart of every complicated romance, I’m attracted to its reaction or for lack of a better phrase: consume/poison ourselves
I could go on about the gorgeous cinematography without being in…
At one point there was an announcement in delivered in Bahasa Indonesia. It activates the sleeper agent in me (DESA NGAK PAKE DOLLAR)
Pretty sure the master volume was cranked +2dB hot or The Park Theatre really upgraded their speakers.
Jeremy Cox, what a resume.
Watching this with your film instructor next to you was kind of nerve-wracking.
Q&A with Jessica Johnson & Ryan Ermacora.
Some notes:
1. Intertidal Zone - a moment in time. Movement of time through waves, organisms.
2. Cine notes - honeycomb filter, “taking out the lens to and finding a middle ground to shoot the microscope optics” (insane), 35mm Day for Night (Jeremy Cox is goated. Can’t wait for Backrooms)
If y'all are wondering why I haven't logged a lot of movies lately, I've been caught up with a lot of projects and this is one of them! It was quite an exhilarating experience screening this in front of a audience and a pretty big theatre.
I'll be posting more of my work here if there's something I'm proud of or to see my filmmaking endeavours many years after. I can't thank my cast and crew enough for bringing this little slice-of-life on screen.
there’s one scene where the theatre let out the loudest laughter then follow up by a frightening silence.
There’s been a resurgence of films lately where the audience has to make their own beliefs of what is right/truthful. This and Anatomy of a Fall even The Zone of Interest ponders that question.
I’ll put a stamp here: top 3 movies of 2023. Its up there with Aftersun in terms of longevity staying at the top spot.
