I don’t mean this in a “movies suck now” kind of way, I actually think 2022 was a pretty good year for movies and 2024 will probably be better
but yeesh, 2023 seemed like a particularly bleak year for film. of those I’ve seen on this list, the only ones I’d heartily recommend are Bottoms and Nimona. maybe Beau is Afraid and Infinity Pool, but those are definitely not for everyone. oh and the TMNT movie was a lot of fun
(I haven’t seen Flower Moon yet so don’t get mad at me, Scorsesebros)
but please feel free to CMV and recommend any good movies from this year, whether they’re in this image or not!
Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret and Past Lives were both excellent movies
yeah I’ve seen that Past Lives has gotten a lot of acclaim. probably won’t watch it though because I have a personal bias against romance films, unless it’s about lesbians
Past Lives isn’t really a romance movie. It’s about how people who immigrate as children can feel stuck between worlds, and the romance is sort of just an aspect of that.
