The other night a prowler came around to the back of my house and i saw their face in the french doors of my bedroom. I was feeding the baby at about 10pm. It scared me. The police came and looke...

Probably the best film i’ve seen this year, i had a feeling it would be. Kelly Reichardt, the director, is not from Portland- but lives here- and has made several films based in Oregon (Meek’s Cu...

My favorite film podcast hosts, (Filmspotting) recommended this small film. Someone even likened it to a movie i loved either last year or the year before (Leave No Trace). This one follows a typ...

Era of the online new release. This one is on amazon prime. Fun film that is reminiscent of Fargo and with twists like Knives Out. If you liked either of these, please check this one out! I is a ...

I purchased tickets to see this film the night i ended up giving birth to my little River, but saw it on Hulu last week. Beautiful and worth another watch.

Again, with this film, I’m not sure it is actually an indie film- Rian Johnson is a fairly well-known director since that Star Wars movie. But, he did start out as an indie filmmaker (and beloved...

---

I’ve enjoyed films by this director for many years now. Marriage Story is one of his best (granted, i haven’t seen everything) There are reasons this one was up for the Oscars. I don’t know if it...

Love Greta Gerwig! What a wonderful film. Still didn’t make it to 12 films in 2019 and wonder if i will in 2020, since I am 9 months pregnant!

I actually don’t know if this is an indie or a wide release film. I definitely saw it in a cozy second run theater for $5! Heart warming, no one left this theater without depositing a few tears. ...

I’ve seen many films by this Korean director- Bong Joon Ho, all of them good. This one is one of the most highly rated films of the year. It’s black comedy at its best, taking weird turns you cou...

Along with Her Smell, this is favorite so far in 2019. The music was phenomenal, the story magical (in its own way, not like magical realism), and i love the city of San Francisco. It was wonder...

Whip smart and hilarious! Highly recommended!

Best movie I’ve seen this year. Elizabeth Moss is amazing

---

I need to put words to what’s going on. I am thinking perhaps it will be in letter style, but unsent. For now, images. Haunted words, it seems You whispered to me, so close as we lay in bed, “We ...

This was a wonderful film: The poster said something like “Casablanca with a Kafka twist”

I am putting this in as indie film #2 because i can’t remember the first one i saw… wait, i remember! It was The Favorite! Ok, that’s up next. Minding the Gap was one of my favorite film podcaste...

Many years ago when Opendiary was in it’s original existence, i had an OD friend who used this phrase (with a quickness) and i loooooved it. I really appreciate a good turn of phrase. A highschoo...
