Best films seen in 2020 regardless of year
Re: Best films seen in 2020 regardless of year
Climax was really fun at the cinema, that soundtrack is killer, but I can't imagine ever watching it at home or re-watching it in general. I actually liked Love a lot, also in the cinema, something to be said about that cumshot in 3D with an audience collectively recoiling. Haven't seen his early work, though, probably should but it also seems exhausting.
woulda lovvved to have seen it in a theatre! love is certainly his most human film, and the editing was awesome, each cut like the viewer blinking their eyes. noe's got style, ya gotta give him that

Haven't seen Love... but this is literally the ending of Enter The Void (I guess sans 3D) and my entire theater audibly groaned/started chuckling and chatting for the rest of the film. If he hadn't lost them up until that, that was the clear moment where everyone gave up on the movie. Haha
once i saw "enter the void"... there are very few directors by whom i am certain i will never watch another movie, but noe is one. might be the only one
i've dated a number of artists cos i'm a cliche EastVanSoftBoy and i derive my self-worth from whom i'm dating, and obviously they are usually "into film" (this is vancouver, so a lot of local artists, at least in some capacity, work in film in fact). this usually means they love john waters, harmony korine, lars von trier, perhaps miike or refn. invariably, they LOVE both "enter the void" and "climax". whenever i'm dating a girl and she starts professing her adoration for a noe movie, i know it's over. why? there are just some things you can automatically know about a woman when she tells you her favourite movie is "enter the void":
- being a progressive feminist is an important part of her identity, but she displays no interest in indigenous sovereignty
- she is a struggling artist, doing the work of MARXIST SAINTS, and you are a fucking suit at a law firm. incidentally, she receives an allowance from her parents, who are both financial advisors
- she believes deeply in astrology, and the only reason why you don't is because you're beholden to the western chauvinist preoccupation with "reason"
- she very rarely eats meat, for ethical reasons. but everyone has cheat days. very occasionally she'll have some chicken or something. when she was in paris she had foie gras and it was delicious
- she consistently mentions the race of non-white persons, especially men, when it has no bearing on the story, especially when they're (often rightly) being portrayed negatively. "and there were like 10 asian guys there"... "this big group of east indian guys were all staring at me"... if you criticize this, you are being dismissive of her experience
- "look, a friend of mine from high school is a cop now, and he genuinely just wants to help people"
THIS IS ALL IN FUN!!! i am only somewhat serious. no disrespect intended!!
