Re: The Official Review Thread of 2024
For the first 30 minutes, I found Julio Torres' Problemista irritating but as it went along I liked it more. It's the story of an El Salvadoran immigrant who comes to the U.S. for the opportunity to apply to work at a toy company and quickly afterwards finds one financial trap after another as he tr...

Re: I'm always here for the Trivia
Mister Tee wrote Not a revolution, but I'd say progress. What's closer to a revolution is the number of women nominated for Best Director. This decade alone (if we start in 2020), we've seen almost as many nominated (4) than in all of Academy history combined (5). Not to mention twice as many winne...

Beau is Afraid cost (I think) $35m and then spent a lot marketing it. It didn't make that money back at all.Okri wrote
Wasn't the recent Ari Aster film on that level (expense wise)?
