literally perfection

70mm
I think this is better than Raiders. No, it is. It definitely is. I think a really interesting part of this film is how well it shows Indy’s weaknesses and how he contradicts himself all the time. I think you actually see a real change in character from beginning to end with this one while remaining incredibly entertaining. The theme for this one will also always find a way to creep it’s way into my mind and stay there…
Listen. Fantastic Mr. Fox is my favorite film, right? But I say that because of how it hits me personally. That being said, Mr. Fox is my favorite, but this is the best film I've ever seen (does that make sense?) I can't believe it gets better every time. I have a million things to say about this movie and I'm gonna try to cover most of them in a video coming later this week.

Sometimes I watch a movie and from the first few minutes can tell it's going to be some shit that I'll love. This was one of them. Matter fact, just by looking at the poster and knowing the synopsis, I knew this would be up my alley. Within the first few minutes you know how this film is…
Just gonna come right out and say it...better than ‘Seven Samurai’. This had my attention from beginning to end. Everything about it was flawless, not to mention how moved I was by the end. It tackles the idea of death as well as mental health and the morals surrounding that (and much more), and I’m probably gonna what I learned from this film forever. I can’t believe I’m saying this about a 3 hour long black&white film from the 60s but I’m PROBABLY gonna watch it again soon. Loved it.
Overwhelmingly beautiful to a point where I definitely owe it a revisit because before I could fully digest one line, we were on to another even more layered piece of writing. Maybe one of the best written films I've seen, one of my new favorite endings, and EASILY my new favorite score.
I am so late to this train but Paul Schrader is the freaking MAN.
