Warfare

2025

★★★ Watched

Visceral but senseless.

The Apprentice

2024

★★★★ Watched

An ugly film (aesthetically) for an ugly man (derogatory).

Great performances all round.

The Dressmaker

2015

★★★ Watched

I imagine The Dressmaker came about through a conversation that went something like this:
DIrector:'Well Kate you'll be playing a, possibly homicidal, seamstress, in a film set in rural Australia with a tone that oscillates between drama and pitch black comedy and you'll need to pull off an Australian accent'
Kate Winslet: 'bring me a Hemsworth and I'll do it'
D: 'What?'
KW: 'I'll do it if there's a Hemsworth as my love interest, I'll take either Thor or the Hunger Games one'
D: 'But Liam Hemsworth is 15 years younger than you...'
KW: 'HEMSWORTH OR BUST!'

Megalopolis

2024

Watched

Silly, bloated, masturbatory nonsense with one redeeming idea, the name ‘Wow Platinum’.
