Oh definitely. John Wayne and Marlon Brando are each guilty of some cultural appropriation.
Thanks for clarifying about Mr.Lee

Battle Royale is an insanely fun and bloody splatterfest.
Scars of Dracula is a subpar Hammer horror, though Christopher Lee is, as usual, great.
Re-Wind is more porn than gore.
It Was Just an Accident deserves all the accolades.

This line encapsulates everything about Battle Royale (2000, Japan) directed by Kinji Fukasaku.

I love a simple classical piece, like this from Mendelssohn.

Agreed. She and director Mervyn Leroy did not get along. He predicted that she would not have much success in Hollywood. Boy was he wrong.

Two delicately poignant teen movies dealing with sexual awakenings, bookended by a β€œso bad it’s really bad” slasher in the woods horror and an edgy Mervyn Leroy pre-code melodrama.

A wonderful double feature. Similar themes, similar age, similar settings, similar struggles.

I savored every episode of this journey. Fittingly, bittersweetly, and unintentionally, I completed that journey today, at the beginning.

Such a good cast, too. It’s impossible to make a bad movie with Brad Dourif!

I was at an AirBnb in Florida and I searched for it on their TV. It came up on, I believe, DirectTv.

A rare occasion where a reimagining is worthy of the original.

I do not disagree.

Agreed. Suspiria is one of my all time favorite movies. Trauma was watchable but just not good. His 2012 Dracula was not even watchable. It’s as if he didn’t even try.

I’ve heard good things so was looking forward to watching. What a disappointment.

I love Dario Argento, but 90’s Dario Argento, not so much.
I respect your opinion if you love the Creep franchise. Please respect mine for hating it.
Thankfully, I was able to restore my faith in cinema with two classics.

Two all time greats bookended by two more modern fare.
Hamnet (2025) has a lot of ACTING in it, hence the hammy title?
Wuthering Heights (1939) and Ben-Hur (1959) are breathtaking.
HappyEnd (2024) is a fine coming of age story from Japan.
