You’re a bigger (no pun intended) for rating Wicked that
high, but again one of the few movies I don’t like is
Wizard of Oz.

No musical hating, btw

you mean The Wiz?

i guess i'd recommend to you and your misses The Wild Robot.
it's good for kids (also very honest on the brutality of
nature) and for parents

i have to +1 that one as well, i see, to 9

+ La corona di ferro (aka The Iron Crown), 1941 - enjoyable and nicely shot, 8

+ I vampiri (aka Lust of the Vampire), 1957 - more mad scientist in a castle
being investigated by the local journalist than a vampire
film, but enjoyable, 7

+ 巨神兵東京に現わる (aka Giant God Warrior Appear... - Japanese short which essentially
is just a CGI giant god warrior appearing in Tokyo and
causing ruination, 7

+ 西荻窪駅徒歩20分2LDK敷礼2ヶ月ペット不可 (... - a fun animated short wherein a
young woman wakes up to discover she's a cockroach, and
attempts to let her boyfriend know, who then chases her
(believing it's a cockroach) around their apartment.
Inventively animated, 8

+ Pyschogenic Fugue, 2016 - John Malkovitch portrays David
Lynch and several iconic Lynch characters in this short film
made especially for the David Lynch Foundation, 7½

+ Girls at 12, 1975 - short documentary by Joyce Chopra,
which follows a small group of girls in the mid 70s as they
discuss life, boys and their discovery of gender inequality,
8

+ Wonka, 2023 - very uninspired songs, a plotline
that seemed so pointless, but the charm of the actors worked
and even as I knew shameless audience manipulation was going
on, I shed a tear a end, 7

+ What Happens Later, 2023 - Meg Ryan directs herself opposite
David Duchovny in this two-hander; at a small airport during
a storm delay, two people who shared a major relationship
during and after college bump into one another and play out
the usual analyses, hurt, reconciliation, understanding,
etc, 7

+ Nutcrackers, 2024 - A gem of a film, a well-worn plot
that is elevated by the cast, the setting, and the natural
offbeat naturalism of it all. Really enjoyed it, 8

+ Drive-Away Dolls - Hilarious and the nods to Henry
James actually make complete sense; like Nutcrackers
it had a mainly negative reception - both films have
plotlinles that on paper are very old hat, but in both cases
it is the characters and the individual situations and
flourishes which elevate them, 8

+ The Apprentice, 2024 - Sebastian Stan and Jeremy Strong
are fantastic, both inhabit their roles impeccably, like a
Sith Lord and his apprentice. The choice of filmstock and
techniques that recall the periods in which the film is set
(early 1970s to late 1980s) are most effective, a
fascinating and singular film, 8

Red Sparrow 6/10, maybe 7/10, just not big on the genre

Conclave 10/10 (i guess it's a more of a traditional movie,
fwiw)
