Lady Bird (indie film #12)
One of the best movies of the year (along with Columbus)
The Florida Project (indie film #11)
I knew i would love this, like i knew i would love Columbus. I saw this director’s debut, Tangerine a couple years ago, and it was quite good. A story of a hidden side of homelessness most folk ...
mother! (indie film #10)
The trailer makes mother! look like a horror film. It’s not. It’s not a real story, per say…every character is an archetype. I think people will talking about mother! for a long time. I think its...
Columbus- indie film #9
O! O! How did i know i would love this before i even saw it? “a soft spoken reverie” says one tiny clip on the trailer. music, pacing, cinematography, the way conversations are filmed indirectly ...
A Ghost Story (indie film #8)
This is a movie that needs time to process. In a good way. I love the silence. The quiet, but intense soundtrack. The long shots. I think i love this movie.
The Hero (indie film #7)
How did i feel after this? A list: contemplative sad still not happy, but content? This is what i texted my friend last night. An aging actor, Sam Elliot, finds out he has pancreatic cancer, and ...
The Beguiled (indie Film #6)
Atmospheric. Tense. Moody. Sleeping thriller. The costuming was gorgeous. The acting spot on. And i felt like there was no time wasted, each shot was meaningful and added to the world that Soph...
Kedi- Indie Film #5
Heart warming documentary for a heart bruising day. Highly recommended
Personal Shopper (#4) *** edit
The trailer calls this movie a “Hitchcockian Thriller” or some such. I heartily disagree. The trailer includes everything you need to see in this movie. Move on from here. Still, i hear the dire...
Oscar nominated shorts (animated) (#3)
I don’t get to see Ian tonight as has been our usual, so when i had a chance to see a movie in Portland Thursday night, i invited him. We saw the Oscar nominated shorts, plus a few extra ‘notable...
LaLa Land (#2)
Since this is an Oscar contender, it might not seem like the kind of film i would talk about. But. I heard about it and planned to see it before it was splashed all over. Color. Charm. Music. The...
Manchester-By-The-Sea (#1)
As we sit, Ian says he is entering the land of his people (especially the accent). I seem to love the east coast men who transplanted westwards 20 years ago. I feel like i am still processing th...
Book Description
Reaching for a goal of one indie film per month in 2017. Hopefully i will be attending them with Ian.
