"It's amazing, Molly. The love inside, you take it with you."

Itu yang diucapkan Sam kepada Molly dalam film Ghost (1990), dan aku yakin suami Hana akan berucap hal yang sama. Ia tak ingin melihat Hana bersedih atas kepergiannya. Kedatangan Bagus membuatnya tenang, melihat Hana kembali memancarkan cahaya yang pernah didapatkannya.

Ini gila, Jesedef mungkin sudah kutonton sebanyak empat kali. Sejak penayangan pertamanya pada akhir 2023 hingga sekarang tak pernah membuatku berhenti memuji film ini. Jesedef dengan black and white-nya berhasil memikat 651.074 penonton selama 64 hari, jumlah yang mungkin dibilang sedikit jika dibandingkan dengan horor yang mendominasi film dengan penonton terbanyak di Indonesia. Tetapi pesan dalam film ini abadi untuk penontonnya.

Bagus memang memberikan realita menyakitkan untuk Hana yang masih terus menutupi dirinya dengan idealisnya, "Gue gak akan jatuh cinta lagi," ucapnya. Bagus tak kuat melihat kesedihan yang terpancar dari Hana, "Sampai kapan ia akan terus begini sementara dunia terus berjalan tidak menunggu ia beranjak dari kesedihannya?" pikirnya.

Mencintai orang lain setelah perpisahan atau ditinggal selamanya memang berat untuk sebagian orang. Memilih mencari orang baru untuk memberikan cinta yang masih tersisa atau memutuskan untuk terpendam selamanya memang pilihan. Tetapi menurutku dengan terus hidup memberikan cinta yang pernah kita beri atau dapatkan adalah salah satu cara menghormati cinta itu sendiri.

Hana: "Tiap kali mau bahagia gitu, kayak kita ngobrol berdua ini seperti ada yang ngelarang."
Bagus: "Kamu tidak perlu move on, move it aja. Kalau aku minta bagian kecilnya aja itupun kalo masih ada."

Air mataku serasa keluar tiap kali mengingat akhir film ini. Hana berbaring di kasur, menatap ruang yang ditinggalkan suaminya sembari tersenyum, dan pergi berbelanja bersama Bagus dengan rambut yang terikat. Hana memutuskan untuk jatuh cinta dan kembali membuka dirinya kepada dunia.

Dengan memberikan cinta, kita membuat dunia lebih berwarna dan menjadikannya lebih baik.

“What is life but a teardrop in the eye of infinity? Together we lived, we laughed, we loved. But you left me. And now, I walk this wilderness alone. What use is a cop with a broken heart? Without you, I'm nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing.”

Finally Playback Time is back after disappearing for some time, an attempt to erase this masterpiece. What a disgrace.

Let me talk a little about my summer memories of 2007 after getting the chance to attend Cannes Festival to watch this film, cause I ed someone who once captivated my heart after rewatching this film. Yeah, I told you about her before this film was erased on Letterboxd.

I still how we first met. At that time after my friend and I parted ways, I visited a bar in Dunkirk. My gaze fell on a woman, she was lonely and there were dozens of bottles of beer on her table. We occasionally exchanged glances, hers was electric blue, successfully bewitching me to be carried away by her gaze.

After ordering a beer, I sat with her. Her name was Audrey and she was 38 years old, 20 years older than me. She told me about her problems, and invited me to stay at her place. She took me to her bed, she hugged and kissed me.

We went through the days together, we even lived together for about a week after that meeting. She moved to my place. The age difference was a barrier for us cause she wanted to spend time playing around, while I had to focus on building my future. In the end, she decided to leave without a word, after three weeks together.

Now back to the film, Playback Time tells the story of a Detective who is in a period of loss. He faces case after case but the memory of his ex always sticks in his mind. Carson's vision in this film is very clear from the beginning of the film, where the detective seems to go back and forth ing the memories of his ex.

Talking about the editing aspect, Carson is very visionary by combining cinema camera with camcorder, as if we are in the detective's imagining what his ex did after they broke up. Not many directors and cinematographers use this method. They look amateurish when compared to Carson.

“I won't forget you, your kisses like soft fruit. Your laughter bursting into daylight like silver. Your smile like the curl of the sickle moon in the night sky. Your luminous beauty, your goodness, your patience, how you hung on my every word. You are now in the arms of another. Who is he, this man?”

It can be seen in the quote above that at first the detective tried to deny the separation between them. The image of his ex was still in his mind, kisses, laughter, smiles, beauty, kindness, and everything about her. But in the end he had to let it go, he realized that the separation came after ing the various dark moments they had experienced together.

“When I look back on the darkest moments of our history, I knew that we would part. And that now, I must let you go. We will know a deeper, surer love. It begins fleetingly, but it deepens and endures. It grows amidst all the strangeness of life. It is a beauty we can always depend on. It is the beauty of friendship.”

I cried at the end of the film, cause I ed her. She died two years after we separated. There was no word of goodbye when we separated, but she had ed me a few days before she died. "I miss you," she said. I didn't reply and immediately hung up the phone. How regretful I was for not replying cause I always think about her, even now though I have four wives.

Thank you for making me that time, Carson. May you rest in peace with Andrei and Stanley. Truly the best film ever.

Finally my dream came true! Glad to have Patron after two years though I rarely watch films these days. I can change many films posters & backdrops. I know no one cares but I just want to express my joy by writing this. Hopefully all of you can have Patrons too someday!

“Don't be afraid of me!”

That's what the man said after trying to drown his wife cause of another woman's seduce. But they were able to reconcile, and faced with another temptation that tried to separate them again.

Maybe you'll say I'm overreacting cause this film is 98 years old, but this film really broke me. So far, Sunrise is the oldest film I've watched that shows me how love should be. Reconciliation scene and the ending make me cry.

Although in that year Fritz Lang directed one of the early "masterpieces" Metropolis, Murnau, Rosher and Struss were truly ahead of their time, with the adapted screenplay made by Meyer. They were visionaries who showed how to shoot and tell stories well, long before Orson Welles with his Citizen Kane as the best film of all time.

Sunrise is My 201th Academy Awards Winning Films, My Favorite Films, My Top 100, and My Films of All-time.

“Nobody ever lies about being lonely.”

That’s what Prew said to Alma after she said she really needed Prew cause she was lonely. In fact, no one lies about being lonely. Being alone and being lonely are two very different words. Everyone can do many things alone, but not lonely. We still need someone to be by our side.

As a film that I postponed for almost three years, I didn’t expect to like this film. I was really still blind to the story of this film for almost half an hour, but after that I was carried away by the acting and the stunning screenplay.

From Here to Eternity tells the story of US soldiers who were positioned at Pearl Harbor. Warden falls in love with Karen, the captain’s wife, and Prewitt falls in love with Alma. Don’t forget that there is also Frank Sinatra who plays Angelo. I didn’t realize that this story ended with the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor if I didn’t pay attention to the calendar on the wall.

Of course some scenes had to be different from the novel to "please" Production Code Office and US Army but I was very satisfied for 118 minutes. The entire cast played very well, it's a shame Montgomery Clift/Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr didn't take home the Academy Award. If they had, this would have been the second film to win the Big Five.

From Here to Eternity is My 200th Academy Awards Winning Films, My Favorite Films, My Top 100, and My Films of All-time.

Celebrating birthdays is pathetic.

I turned 23 today and I would rather no one congratulate me cause it makes me so sad. I had this feeling ten years ago and nothing has changed since then. How can you celebrate your birth which may be a burden for others?

Having consulted many times and taken medication, the last time I did it was five years ago, I don't want to do all that again. It's just a waste of money and time. "Lack of worship," will definitely be the main weapon that comes out of their mouths.

I still have difficulty enjoying life though I wrote "enough" in my review of "Taste of Cherry" and farewell letter in 2023 which is still there if I decide to end my life. You may say "Don't focus too much on the dark side, you'll miss all the beauty the world has to offer," Trust me, I try to do that all the time.

But my mind and body couldn't lie. Dreams of running slowly and drowning became more frequent. I'm not doing high-intensity sports like football anymore. Even when I tried to climb a mountain with friends, I was completely exhausted.

Growing old is a big responsibility for me. How can you be useful and what can you give or offer to others. I think I failed to give that and didn't give a good impression for y'all. Many people say live for yourself but I can't imagine something like that.

Losing direction like Calum (Aftersun), lonely like Charlotte (Lost in Translation), fragile like Alain (Le Fou Follet), and same age as Ian Curtis, I'll try to starting 23 with positive thoughts.

"It's a strange world, isn't it?"

I just woke up at 6am then opened Facebook, saw the post that David just died, couldn't believe it cause I was still awake until 3am, searched on Google and it turned out he left us an hour after I fell asleep.

I still can't believe it, cause I post a Mulholland Drive reels on my story few days ago. It's so strange to see David leave us all, and maybe the moon really needed him. The other world needs him.

There are no words that can explain how extraordinary David Lynch is. His 3 of 23 films are on my Top 100, and he is one of my favorite film director with Andrei Tarkovsky on this list.

Twin Peaks is my favorite series, but I've been delaying season 3 since three years ago. As soon as possible I'll finish it, Inland Empire, and Lost Highway.

Rest in Love, David.
You can enjoy cookies, cola, coffee, and cigarettes as much as you like 🖤
And I can't believe I write this on Friday.

I wrote this tribute on his film I first loved, the film that made me cry two years ago.

____________________________________________________________________

Finally I completed the Top 250 for almost a year. As far as I , I started in September 2023. Though I have no intention of completing it, I am grateful cause this list helps me to know cinema more widely and not just focus on films that are currently hyped or only known in general.
