    Naked

    Their words

    The misanthrope he plays in Naked, this man grasping his way through a modern and blighted London, was provocative for me.

    Black Girl

    Their words

    I watched Black Girl pretty recently and found it to be so stirring.

    Dekalog

    Their words

    Dekalog was one of the first foreign works I ever saw, and it’s astonishing. There’s not a weak moment in these ten films.

    The Cremator

    Their words

    The Cremator is a film I watched during this year’s pandemic that shocked me. It was made in 1969, is set in 1930s Prague, and was banned until the fall of communism in 1989. It’s an exploration of the banality of evil, and what’s astonishing is that it does exactly what drama is supposed to do: it feels both inevitable and surprising, and you don’t realize the trip you’re on until you’re already down the slope.

    Badlands

    Their words

    Badlands is an example of how that can be used powerfully when it’s well-written, has a very specific point of view, and is impeccably performed. Sissy Spacek is so disarming in this, and her narration is pitch-perfect.

    Chungking Express

    Their words

    Chungking Express was the first Wong Kar Wai film I saw, and I remember feeling uplifted when it was over.

    Portrait of a Lady on Fire

    Their words

    No matter how you slice it, Portrait of a Lady on Fire is exquisitely made.

What is a korrent?

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.

Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.

Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post

Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.

The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.

Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
