is your claim that the godfather is 1)shit 2)overrated but great 3)merely inferior to big adventure?

Please calm down, everybody.

overrated but okay. I don’t think it’s great. Big Adventure was just a random comparison.

Working fine on the Roku app, the smart TV app, the mobile phone app, and at criterion channel.com on Firefox

I went and signed up for MUBI yesterday. Last night, I watched the film of the day, since it was something I hadn't heard of and I figured going with their recommended movie is a better test of the site than if I were to start digging through movies I know I want to see in their wider catalog.

It was a 1998 German movie called Short Sharp Shock. I enjoyed it. The story isn't anything you haven't seen before, but it was a playful bit of cinema with some drive. Worth a look, MUBI-ites

I browsed its catalogue a few weeks ago and it looks great. I shall consider.

five favorite movies that I saw for the first time in 2022, excluding movies released in the last three years:

A Canterbury Tale (Powell & Pressburger, 1944)
Harvey (Henry Koster, 1950)
Possession (Andrzej Zulawski, 1981)
Meantime (Mike Leigh, 1983)
The Emperor's Naked Army Marches On (Kazuo Hara, 1987)
Crimson Gold (Jafar Panahi, 2003)
Tomboy (Celine Sciamma, 2011)
