I was lucky enough to see this at the London Film Festival, where the film was preceded by a (Zoom) interview with the co-directors and producer.

NOSTALGHIA (1983)
İçimde hangi atam konuşuyor? Hem aklımda hem de bedenimde, aynı anda ayrılamam. Bu yüzden tek kişi olamıyorum. Kendimi aynı anda sayısız şey olarak hissedebiliyorum. Fazla büyük usta kalmadı. Zamanımızın gerçek kötülüğü budur. Kalbin yolları gölgelerle kaplanmış. Yararsız görünen seslere kulak vermeliyiz. Okul duvarları, asfalt ve refah reklamlarının uzun kanalizasyon boruları ile dolu beyinlere, böceklerin vızıltıları […]

My Final Thoughts on Final Destination
Now I’ve watched all the Final Destination films, here are my final thoughts. I was initially drawn to the franchise due to the interesting concept.

Shocker (1989)
Looking to be frightened I chose Wes Craven’s Shocker. I had never seen it and while watching it, had no recollection. I wasn’t too shocked or frightened. Then again, as a pre-senior, I’ve experienced scarier parts of life. I’m sorry, it’s hard to watch movies nowadays and see the stupid shit, based on how […]

Davis: Billy Madison (1995)
Something vital occurs when an actor discovers their perfect persona – an extrapolation of their whole comic world that carries an entire world along with it.
