Good Films

I adore a good film, though what I think is a "good" film might night not be what others do, or what critics do. And I love a lot of films for reasons people don't expect. First off, I love drama, I love comedy tons, but I always say it's not a good film unless I'm crying. I don't only watch dramas though, I love the cult classics, musicals, and if I'm in the mood I might watch a rom-com. But I guess I'll give some examples of some of my favorite films and why.
(I know I did something like this but I only had The Paperboy, Neo Ned, Resevior Dogs, and Trainspotting and I've talked about Brokeback Mountain, I really love that film)
Ps: I'm way better at talking about what I hate about bad films and I am at talking about the things I love about a film haha. I cant spot why something makes me feel all warm and fuzzy tbh.

AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY
This film is adapted from a play and it stars "Meryl StreepJulia RobertsEwan McGregorChris CooperAbigail BreslinBenedict CumberbatchJuliette LewisMargo MartindaleDermot Mulroney, and Julianne Nicholson" (That list is straight from Wikipedia). Though it is adapted from a play and it's setting is the house 80% of the time it's still fabulous with great actors left and right. Meryl Streep's performance is stunning (as to be expected). The soundtrack was also a huge part of my loving this film, not only is their great writing and great actors there's also beautiful music! Listen to it if you can! Watch it if you can!

CARNAGE
Now this film, I literally just finished watching this film 30 minutes ago. It's also adapted from a play. Again I'm a bigger fan on different locations but it stays in an apartment. It's about two pairs of parents talking about one of their kids hitting the other. I'm telling you, this isn't The Slap, this is good, I'm sure you could tell it is because of Polanski (though I know a good director can make a bad movie. I watched this film because I was in the Christoph Waltz-y mood and I was pleasantly surprised! I loved Kate Winslet and Jodie Foster in this, amazing amazing. (The Slap was this crap show about a parent slapping someone's kid, it was on NBC and it didn't last very long, it was unbelievable stupid haha).

MR.PIP
This movie is an adaption, of "Great Expectations" by: Charles Dickens. Wikipedia summary: "While civil war rages on her island, a girl immerses herself in an imaginary world which fuses the Victorian London of "Great Expectations" with the environment and people she knows" We all know Hugh Laurie is a fabulous actor and great acting+a lot of heart (cliche I know, but it's really true) and Charles Dickens = a great film.


THE HUNT
This a film about a man who was wrongly accused of being a pedophile by a little girl who had a crush on him. I knew this had to be film made in another country because this isn't a big subject matter for films in the US, it was brave and really sad (I know there's a better word haha) and Mads Mikkelsen does a amazing job. But I remember how beautiful the film was and how I felt the story in the scenery... I guess I have the cinematographers to thank for that! Watch it, in fact watch anything with Mads Mikkelsen in it. He's in a TV version of Hannibal as Hannibal Lecter, he's terrifying...and that's an understatement. Great writing, great look, brave choice of topic, wonderful actor.

Okay that's it for today,, but yes those are some great films!

Crap Films

Why are there so many crappy films, WHY. Watching a bad film gives me actual pain, I get a headache. But I write short films, and I know mine are going to be bad too, but I gotta write more of them so I can get better. It's scary though, being bad, messing up, but I'm learning as I get older that it's okay, it's still scary... I guess I'm scared of crap films and crap films are scary...especially when I write them haha



These are the worst movies I have seen in the last month...it gave me pain to save these pics to my computer, oh the things I do for this blog.

UGHHHHHHHHHHH

A good film and a bad film

So I saw a terrible movie with my mom, it was yet another YA novel in a dsytopian society and it sucked. It deserves no more wor-

But I did see The Hateful Eight and Schindler's List. Tarantino and Spielburg what a treat.

The Hateful Eight was as wonderfully long-winded, visually stunning, and traumatizingly bloody as I could expect for good old Tarantino. I've never seen a film and want to go back in and watch it again 15 minutes later.

Schindler's List was a beautiful film and great tribute to the millions killed in the Holocaust. Definitely made me cry. Sir Ben Kingsley, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. And I was disgusted by Ralph Fiennes...love that guy.  He was also amazing hilarious and dapper in The Grand Budapest Hotel.

So I got to cleanse my brain with such beautiful films after seeing "The Fifth Wave" UGH never AGAIN. But I gotta go.

Love this quote and Charlie Chaplin's films!

Books and Stuff

I love a good book, I just checked out one on English Romantic Writers. I am so excited! I love romantic literature, a lot. I love to read, I love words. I have always liked to read and been way over my grade's specified reading level but over the past couple years I have grown to love reading even more. Stephen Fry was a big part of that, he loved words and books and through him I saw the beauty of words, beauty of knowledge. I'm glad I see it, I'm glad the world slows down when I read a beauty poem or story. The idea of new vocabulary and new adventures in my mind makes me happy, it is among cute baby videos, Twinkies, helping people, watching great films, and chocolate for me haha. I want to learn how to right good stories and make movies with them. Dreams am I right?!

One of my favorite gif's of him haha. The sass was real and still is with Stephen Fry.

Hw

So Spring Break is coming to a close and I should probably start my homework, but I have been binge watching Wilfred and I'm almost done. I might start my homework tonight but I also might play sims on my phone and eat Pb and j's. Ya never know, my life is pretty crazy. Between napping all day and going through Insta randomly I never catch a break. And, I'm writing something, I think it's pretty good, I think I want to get it peer edited by one of my teachers. I'm glad I have been able to have this break, but I cant wait to see my friends when I get back. Anyway I don't really have much else to share so I shall go and write again tomorrow!


Bye!

Bc I loved 2000s Eminem and his clear insanity,
but he is still really awesome today w/o the drugs lol.
