Albatross (II) (2022)
9/10
An interesting period drama with a surprise ending.
2 August 2022
I found this film to be quite bizarre at first. Wasn't sure where it was going in the first segment of it.

But as it continued, I began to understand that the film is a bit like peeling an onion. You find more and more layers, and begin to see how these people are each connected to each other. I definitely enjoyed that aspect of it. It all takes place in one night in one location. Not sure if that's due to the budgetary or what, but it didn't feel claustrophobic on my viewing.

The themes seem to resonate with topics that we are all chatting about today. I enjoyed getting a perspective on those topics from the past.

The performances were fun even though I didn't recognize any of the actors... I still got into the story.

Visuals were fun and impressive despite being in one house. Reminded me of Who's afraid of Virgina Wolf.

Sound and music were excellent.

Perhaps not a film for everyone, but I very much enjoyed it.

Call My Agent! (2015–2020)
10/10
brilliant and fun

Wonderfully observed portray of agents and their actors, their actors playing themselves in a spoof way, at the same time hilarious and then vulnerable, and so real that you attach yourself to each agent. Very witty satyre of the movie business made with such affection that you fall for it. Awesome.
