Dial M for Murder 1954

★★★★★ Watched 15 Mar 2025

Can there be such a thing as a perfect murder? Maybe, but not when the victim is Grace Kelly.
I really love Dial M for Murder, it is my favorite film of Hitchcock's, and I've seen a bunch of his work now, more than twenty. I saw it again, this time at a packed 3D screening, and I loved it all the same.

Days of Being Wild 1990

★★★½ Watched 13 Mar 2025

Wong Kar-Wai is such an interesting director with a distinctive style, even if I didn’t fall head over heels for Days of Being Wild like I did with Chungking Express,I still loved the mood that permeates the film.
It is one of the most beautiful and intriguing romantic dramas I’ve seen, easily, the way 1960s Hong Kong is depicted is very memorable and creates a sense of a nostalgic longing. And the performances were amazing, Leslie Cheung as Yuddy is…
