#CHEVALIER WAS SO BAD. SO DISAPPOINTINGLY BAD. WHY. WHY. WHYYYYYYY

favortive movies of 2023?

Killers of the Flower Moon--Easy. I think it was gorgeously made, super compelling, and insanely well-acted. Scorsese is honestly one of the last truly great auteurs who existed before the current box office hellscape, and you can see it on screen the entire time.

May December--Incredibly haunting, full of actors ACTING, captivating and repulsive at the same time. Charles Melton owns the movie, but it's so good all around.

Nimona--I thought this was fun and heartwarming, I loved the animation, I really enjoyed the allegory of it all, so fun.

Past Lives--Haunting in a different way, so emotionally impactful and quietly devastating, which is something I love.

Bottoms--Bring back comedy!!!! Make it like this!!!! I beg!!! I laughed my fucking ass off with this one, thank God for this movie.

Red, White, & Royal Blue--Easily the most delightful romcom of the year, it's comfort food, I enjoy it greatly.

Joy Ride--Actually comedies did kinda hit this year, because THIS was the funniest movie I watched all year, and I was literally wheezing in the theater. Yet it was also super affecting?

Sanctuary--Oops, a shockingly romantic movie about a dominatrix and a client who truly deserves to be PUNISHED. I laughed. I fawned. I was all "awww" when she told him she was ovulating. ROMANCE.

Faraway--A mature romcom about a lady finding herself separate from her kid and her shitty husband? Ummmm yes love it.
