Loved Election
Election has aged impeccably, and it’s one of my favorite movies of all time.

Loved Polyester
Polyester takes a jackhammer to the fallacy of the American dream and the dysfunction of the nuclear family, eviscerating these tropes in a way that is so brave and funny and dark.

Loved Working Girls
Working Girls is so much more honest than any of the media I saw about sex work growing up, and I think that stems from the emotional expansiveness that Lizzie Borden has as a director.

Loved The Breakfast Club
The Breakfast Club stands out for its simplicity and really shows how much you can accomplish when setting a movie in just one location. It’s Hughes at his finest, with an amazing ensemble cast and real, grounded performances.

Loved Pina
I saw Pina around the same time I saw Weekend, and it also felt like something I’d never seen on-screen before. Usually, you think of 3D movies in relation to Avatar or Marvel, so to have this technique optimized for dance and theater was breathtaking.

Loved Weekend
There’s a huge library of great queer cinema, but Weekend sits in its own pocket for me.

Loved Grey Gardens
I first watched Grey Gardens in high school because of my mom and grandmother—which really tells you all you need to know about me. It was a movie they’d put on in the living room, and I fell in love with these women and their style and freedom of expression.

Liked Rushmore
I hadn’t seen Rushmore until last year, and it was exciting to see a Wes Anderson film so rooted in a teen setting.

Loved An Unmarried Woman
An Unmarried Woman was the first Criterion film I ever purchased. Lena Dunham suggested I watch it before making my first film, and it has stuck with me intensely ever since and become my comfort movie.

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.
