Loved The Vanishing
You’re never really prepared for The Vanishing. It’s a brutal movie, and you’re left thinking about it for a very long time after you watch it.

Loved The Piano Teacher
I love The Piano Teacher because, depending on my mood, it can be funny or horrifying—and you’re not told how to feel about any of it.

Loved Lost Highway
I saw Lost Highway in the theater with my dad when I was about fifteen. He didn’t like it, and I felt embarrassed by how much I did.

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.
