Moonlight (2016)
Deserves every bit of hype.
This film is a masterpiece and absolutely deserved Best Picture at the Academy Awards. I see many " one star" reviews on this site and this no doubt has to do with an objection to the LGBT subject matter. Ironically though this isn't really a "gay film" Yes, there is implied homosexuality and bisexuality but nowhere is the film explicit about this. I found this film to focus much more on childhood trauma and the shells that we all (regardless of sexuality) build around ourselves to survive this world. This film is shot beautifully and the acting is top notch even though many of the actors are in thier debut role. I related to this movie in many ways and I have never cried harder at an ending as I did here. Bravo, Barry Jenkins!
TFW NO GF (2020)
Revealing and intriguing
I am always interested in learning about the various groups and subcultures that have developed on the internet since the early 2000's. This film goes beyond the nerdy and depressing "incel" culture and really explores why youth are drawn to these communities. I appreciate the neutrality of this work. Give it a watch. For what it is 10/10
