Le Deuxième Acte.

That was hilarious. I havent seen a lot of Dupieux´s movies but he is often very very funny and creative.

Wild Diamond.

It was very well shot, great leading girl and compelling enough, although a bit obvious. But its a good one to see along with How To Have Sex and maybe The Florida Project.

I did a Mubi trial a few months ago. These were all the movies I watched:

-Cow
-Mister Lonely
-The Substance
-Yannick
-Fallen Leaves
-The Idiots
-Daaaaaalí!
-Four Unloved Women, Adrift on a Purposeless Sea, Experience the Ecstasy of Dissection
-Bird
-Candy Mountain
-Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World

Yannick and Fallen Leaves were very good. That was about it.

Vice is broke.

Interesting. I liked how it was shot and most of the interviews. I actually went to a Vice party and a few panels they did in an penthouse in Cannes. It was funny they kinda disappear the next year.

Lurker.

That was good. I loved the framing and the different camera formats. It also reminded me a lot of different entourages i have seen with time, all surrounding a stupid celebrity.

Fun movie.

So i recently came back to this one and the first three are pretty awful, but then it kinda finds an interesting way of telling something. Im not sure what is it yet though.

It does look awesome and ep 5 is by far the best, lili reinhart is truly good on this one but damn if Raiff is desperate and very very cringy.
These caracters are just having the worst time in their lifes all the time, and the things that happen to them are not so bad.

Ok one more to go! Last is one hour long im not sure i have in me.

Its a shame becaue the series does look very good and has its moments but Raiff seems obsessed on making his characters be all super depressed all the time.
They are all basically 13 years old kids.

I actually quited liked Hal & Harper, specially from ep 4 to the end. Raiff is still insufferable and his characters are depressed babys most of the time, but i liked the main idea overall.

Just started ¨Los Años Nuevos¨ from Rodrigo Sorogoyen, who might be my favorite director these days. Episode 1 was absolutely stunning. Cant wait for more.
