AMERICAN BEAUTY (Sam Mendes, 1999) ~ One of 1999’s finest movies, Sam Mendes’ debut feature captures the angst and desires of a family imploding from within, but not without some sublime acting on display. #americanbeauty #sammendes #kevinspacey #annettebening #oscars #drama #usa #america #acting #desires Full review link in bio!

NINOTCHKA (Ernst Lubitsch, 1939) ~ Lubitsch and Garbo combine to decent effect in this sharp and witty Hollywood classic about the battle of ideologies and how love gets in the way. #ninotchka #gretagarbo #ernstlubitsch #drama #comedy #romance #hollywood #classicalhollywood #classic #1930s #ideology #communism #capitalism #love Full review in my bio link!

EVERYBODY KNOWS (Asghar Farhadi, 2018) ~ Good but not great, Farhadi’s Spanish-language effort is rather too elaborate in plotting, but still serves up a largely engaging mystery with delectable performances. #everybodyknows #asgharfarhadi #penelopecruz #javierbardem #spain #spanishcinema #cannesfilmfestival #drama #mystery #past Now showing at @theprojectorsg Full review available in my bio link!

THIS LOVE OF MINE (Chang Yi, 1986) ~ An utterly miserable work about a woman coming to terms with her cheating husband that is torturous to sit through. #thisloveofmine #changyi #lorettayang #taiwan #taiwanesecinema #chinesecinema #drama #family #marriage #infidelity #fear #psychosis #bleak

MONTY PYTHON'S LIFE OF BRIAN (Terry Jones, 1979) ~ Theologically offensive on almost every level, but its wildly provocative (and hilarious) scenarios have a disarming charm to them in this excellent religious satire. #montypython #lifeofbrian #terryjones #terrygilliam #grahamchapman #johncleese #ericidle #michaelpalin #comedy #politics #religion #satire Available on @netflixsg

RONA, AZIM'S MOTHER (Jamshid Mahmoudi, 2018) ~ A well-acted piece centering on a refugee Afghan family living in Iran with an ailing matriarch that naturally if solemnly captures their predicaments. #ronaazimsmother #jamshidmahmoudi #navidmahmoudi #afghanistan #iran #middleeast #drama #refugee #mother #son #busaninternationalfilmfestival Short review in bio link!
