Ainda estou aqui or "im still here" as it is known in english. It is out in cinemas now. It is based on a true story and a stark reminder of why we should not forget history. It was really well done and I recommend it to everyone. The whole cinema was silent watching it.

Movies I've watched this week:
- Cry Danger (1951)
- MADs
- Woman of the Hour
- Outland
I enjoyed Cry Danger the most.
10 movies in 3 days!? That's impressive!
7 days! still way too many
Last night I watched Red Room (2023) which was excellent, one of the scariest movies I've seen in ages, and not a moment of gore.
Couple days ago I watched Todd Haynes' Far From Home (2003) without knowing ahead of time that it was a remix of Douglas Sirk's 50s melodramas, but it was a really pleasant surprise. It inspired me to watch Fassbinder's Ali: Fear Eats The Soul which I unsurprisingly enjoyed a little less as I've never been quite able to connect with his more bleak takes on relationships.
Knives out. Great movie never expected that performance. Knives out 2, glass onion. Starting to get convoluted but still a nice movie. Bullet train. Just a fun rump.
Bladerunner. I was very underwhelmed, especially with all the hype surrounding the movie.
Yeah, it's not for everyone. Visually amazing though. But not for me.
Akira. First time watching it. Only had dub available. It was not what i expected, but it was fine.
If you fancy another animated classic there is “ghost in the shell (1995)”, that’s assuming you haven’t already seen it. Wasn’t a fan of akira myself but appreciate the art from it. However, I love ghost in the shell.
If anyone here likes Japanese animation and hasn't seen Satoshi Kon's work, specifically Perfect Dark and Paprika, stop what you're doing right now and fix that.
So far this week I watched The Bikeriders and Nickel Boys. Both amazing movies.
- Red
- Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets
I watched the Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, which was wonderful, but could have been wonderfuller.
- Monday: The Thomas Crown Affair (1999) rewatch
- Tuesday: Le Comte de Monte-Cristo (2024)
- Wednesday: Davos 1917 (2023) miniseries
I have watched some this week but they were so meh I can't even remember the titles.
