Musings on: Film

These are films which I think about often, reference in conversations or had a very pleasurable viewing experience when watching and wish to make note of it.


Before Sunrise (1995) – dir. Richard Linklater

Nothing more can be said about this film. It is perfection: Beautiful, intimate, dreamy. Everything that first day when you meet someone you feel a connection should be. This is my current favourite film. (Note: have not yet watched any of the follow ups to this film as of updating).


Raising Arizona (1987) – dir. Joel Coen

Watched at the Eye Filmmuseum as part of their ‘The Coen Brothers Complete’ event that ran Summer ’24. Wonderful viewing experience. Was on 35mm reel, with subtitles. The audience was electric, the film was even better. I think about that evening often. I wonder if the next time I watch it the film shall be as good.
