What do you think of the film's length? I enjoy it overall, but it can feel like a slog towards the end.

Yeah I felt similarly. It's a good movie with some great performances (John Carroll Lynch is awesome), but it's a bit too long, especially for a film where the third act is primarily about....going through archival materials. And it tends to lean heavily into the details of the case at the expense of character.

I would lose everything involving Chloe Sevigny, whose role is basically useless. And it’s weird how RDJ just disappears from the third act. But I still love that movie.

It feels like its subject, obsession with no satisfaction, which makes it a difficult watch for me. Though I occasionally return to it for its pristine craftsmanship.

Resolution


Pretty cool for a "horror" movie that probably cost like $500 to make. No other comments given how spoiler sensitive it is.


edit: NPR's largely, but not entirely, spoiler free review here

Good Time was pretty good... but pales in comparison to Uncut Gems, which is a much more mature, complex, complete movie.

High Life - enjoyed it, but this was bleak

The Beach- absolutely hated this...good God

Inside Out - this was good, but I wasn’t as enamored with it as most

Blue Valentine - man this was great..probably my favorite gosling and williams’ roles

What movie do you want playing at your funeral?

I’d probably pick The Wedding Singer.
