Gentle Monster
★★★★ Watched

the first thing i want to say about it is that it’s so heartbreaking. and in repetition. how many times can you uncover the same truth and horrify yourself all the same? how much will it take to break through denial, through years of trust? to break a life in half? 

this one is a heavy punch in the gut. it’s breathtaking, it’s beautifully written, and perfectly sensible with the topic. sometimes i couldnt breathe, sometimes it made me nauseous,…

Bitter Christmas
★★★ Watched

amarga navidad is at its best when it is bitter

i liked the movie as a whole, and the last 30 minutes are pure excellence!!! however, i failed to stay engaged with the story in a way. it’s very meta, and that’s ok, but that took some of the potency of the narrative away. it felt almost like it was about too much at the same time, and it didn’t have room to do it all. i loved these characters…

Malu
★★★★½ Watched

eu sei que não é um filme de “tomar partidos” nas discussões, mas em algumas cenas eu pensava se eu entendia mais malu ou joana. consegui me ver muito nas duas, o que reforça muito essa ideia de continuidade das narrativas que atravessam as gerações… o que é mais doloroso e assustador do que perceber que somos exatamente como nossos pais?
