The other day I got to pondering whether people who work for ad serving companies have ad blockers on their work computers.

I was born in 1980, so was far too young for that when it originally aired, then never got around to it until a few weeks ago.

And fuck me, there is nothing cheerful about that film in the slightest. Nothing. It’s a great piece though.

The first half of Life is Beautiful is perfectly named.

The second half…

Cinema Paradiso is such a beautiful thing. First time I watched it I wanted to start it all over again.

Firstly, Fury Road is a masterpiece. I just wanted to agree with you.

Secondly; have you ever played Ghost of Tsushima? It has a Kurosawa mode that’s really beautiful. You can play the whole game in a rich, moody black and white. It’s a gimmick, sure, but a nice one.

I saw Grave of the Fireflies once.

Once.

Could never bring myself to go through it again, despite how utterly beautiful it is.

But my favourite thing about it is that it was originally a double bill with My Neighbour Totoro. Imagine seeing those two back to back. You’d get some serious emotional whiplash.

As much as I enjoyed Banshees, it didn’t have the snappiness and immediacy of In Bruges.
